Pitch Reports

Maintaining a pitch-tracking system is extremely important for anyone sending out playlists to music supervisors, radio stations, DSPs, etc. DISCO’s reporting tools help you to both organize your pitches and uncover precise stats around how they are received.

Reports Overview

DISCO reports are centered around Playlists and their tracks.

Reports can be exported in CSV format, allowing for convenient editing and integration with other information.

Open the Insights dashboard in the sidebar then select reports in the left column:

Open Reports dashboard

The Report dashboard is divided into three sections:

  • Show me all playlists...
  • Filters
  • More Options
Reports have different limitations based on Plan type. Pro plans and above have no limitations.

Pitch Tracking Channel

Pitch reports should be filtered to only include playlists sent to clients. Our recommendation is to keep these pitches stored in a dedicated Channel for quick identification.

  • Create a Channel called “Pitch Log.”
Add channel button
  • Add subfolders for each month or company pitched to.

Generating Reports

Start by asking yourself the following questions:

  • What do I want to report on?
  • Who am I reporting to?
  • Is the report for internal or client use?

Apply filters according to how you answer these questions then export the report.

This example report would show playlists from all time (see date range selector in top left), in the Pitch Log (Channel) with the tag "Advertising" (these are Playlist tags not Track tags), that were marked as Client Lists:

Report filters highlighted
Large reports that take more than 10 seconds to generate, or contain more than 10k results, can not be exported in DISCO and will be sent to you via email within 24 hours.

Example Reports

Show me all playlists from the last 30 days sent to film music supervisors:

  • Filter by time period = Last 30 days
  • Filter by tag (playlist tag) = Film
  • Filter by Client Lists only = Yes
  • More Options  = Include tags (this adds a column that lists the playlist tags to provide helpful contextual info on your report)
Report on playlists with the film tag

Show me all playlists from the last 30 days that included this artist (Racing) and are Client lists:

  • Filter by time period = Last 30 days
  • Filter by Artist = Racing
  • Filter by Client Lists only = Yes
