For independent musicians, getting heard in a crowded digital world can feel like shouting into the void. Creating great music is only the first step. Getting that music in front of listeners, press, playlist curators and industry professionals is where momentum really starts. That’s the idea behind the Local Sounds Amplifier — a coordinated promotion package designed to take a release beyond just uploading it and into meaningful discovery.
At its core, the Amplifier brings together multiple promotional tools into one joined-up campaign, tailored for artists who want credibility and reach, not just a single social post. Rather than relying on luck or a single radio spin, artists get a full suite of visibility boosters working together to build awareness and audience engagement.
One of the key parts of an Amplifier campaign is editorial coverage. Each release gets a song review published and shared with the Local Sounds publishing network, giving artists a written narrative around their music and helping it reach media partners who might pick up the story. At the same time, a professional electronic press kit is created, complete with media-ready copy and AI-enhanced selling points that make it easier for artists to pitch to press, radio and playlist curators.
The Amplifier doesn’t stop at press and press kits. It includes promotional muscle across social platforms and digital spaces. There’s influencer promotion through paid posts and reviews, banner ads on the Local Sounds platform with thousands of monthly views, and featured artist profiles with Spotify embeds and direct links to music and socials. That kind of multi-layered exposure gives listeners easy pathways to discover and engage with new tracks.
Radio remains a powerful discovery tool, and the Amplifier includes targeted radio campaigns. Artists benefit from on-air promos, spins during primetime and pre-roll airtime on Local Sounds Radio and partner stations, helping connect their music with real listeners who might not otherwise have found it.
Beyond broadcasting and online visibility, there’s also support for live discovery. Event promotion is tailored to the artist’s location, spotlighting upcoming shows and tours to local fans — turning digital buzz into real-world engagement. Playlist placements across Local Sounds’ curated Spotify, SoundCloud and YouTube lists further extend reach into the places where people explore new music.
In a landscape where algorithms often favour global hits, a strategy like the Local Sounds Amplifier gives independent artists a purposeful boost. It puts music in front of fans, industry listeners and media in a coordinated way that increases the chances of discovery, charting a path from release day to wider recognition.
