Greaserelease Reviews 

Grease Release were very easy to work with. Responsive and professional!

With only 22 streams generated from their playlist within 2 weeks of the song being placed, it goes without saying that I'm not satisfied with the results. Since the website operates with a paid submission system ($17 per song), I would rather be rejected than have my song approved and then receive streams that are definitely not worth that money, especially when I have experienced significantly higher amount of streams from free submissions elsewhere in the past. As I want to be fair, I would give 2 stars because the communication has been very good, but other than that, obviously I wouldn't recommend this service.

Greaserelease is a real Promotion and has great Playlists,As long as your Music is of high Quality there is no way they will not add you to their great works. Worth trying em.

The service I paid for was for you to submit my song to multiple playlists.

It was not to send to members of your team for feedback.

I don't need feedback as this is a track that is successful and has amassed around 500k streams and was the standout track on an album with over 2 miilion streams and 2000 cd sales.
Music is subjective and I don't care what your team think as what's to say they are rock music fans !

The email response they sent is not worth $17.00.

You deliberately mislead about the service you provide by listing high listener figures for a series of curators.

I was paying to submit to curators, not for A&R feedback.

This is fraudulent, misleading selling of a fake service. I would like my money back.

Breaking down the cost per curator:

$17 / 8 curators = $2.13 per curator

So the submission cost is roughly the same as sites like Submithub, but with those sites you can choose to target only the most relevant curators, whereas here it's a package deal.

I got accepted by only one playlist, LazyFrenzy's "give me some space." The playlist has 52,000 saves on Spotify. This placement translated to a grand total of 41 streams for my song. That's negligible.

Breaking down the cost per stream:

$17 / 41 streams = $0.41 per stream

That's too expensive. It's cheaper to make your own playlist and advertise it yourself. It will cost you less per stream and you have more control over the genre and which other artists to associate with.

So this isn't entirely an indictment of Greaserelease specifically, but the whole pay-to-submit playlisting model. In my view, it's not worth it. My best playlisting results have actually come from free sites. But the most impactful place to place efforts for me has been social media like TikTok.

In conclusion, my result was not impactful, and the cost for the result was poor.

Great site where reviewers offer first class advice and knowledge on your original songs with the added opportunity to be placed on high quality playlists. Couldn't expect more. Would be more than happy to use this service again in future.

"I submitted my new song 'Reptilian Attack' to Greaserelease, and within a few days, they delivered on their promise by adding it to a big, genre-fitting playlist. The process was straightforward, and they truly came through. Highly recommended for artists looking to get their music heard!"

We wanted to collaborate with a music centric community lead by a platform that knows how to deliver, we picked the right platform and it is right here.

I want to express my deep disappointment with the experience I had using this platform. I recently decided to invest $17 in your service, hoping it would provide a genuine opportunity to promote my music. While this may seem like a small amount, it was an initial test payment to evaluate how your system works and determine whether it would be worth investing more in future campaigns.

However, what I received was far from what I expected. After a few days, I received very brief and generic feedback, mostly consisting of positive phrases with very little constructive criticism. The few criticisms I did receive were completely generic and seemed like "copy-paste" feedback, with no real analysis or personal insight into my track. Additionally, my song was not selected for any of the offered campaigns.

One of the reasons for my disappointment is that your website clearly states that if a track is not selected, a refund will be issued. This was not the case, and instead, I received an impersonal response full of repetitive, pre-written phrases. While it may be your policy not to offer refunds once a response has been sent, this should be clearly communicated before an artist spends money on your service. It's essential for musicians to know in advance that even if we're not selected and we only receive automated responses with generic phrases, no refund will be issued.

At this point, I believe this is a full-blown scam. I was genuinely considering investing much more in future campaigns, but after this experience, I feel it would be money totally wasted. It's better to invest in other platforms that offer better results and a more transparent, fair approach to independent artists.

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend your platform to other musicians. #Scam #Disappointment #NotRecommended #FullBlownScam

this site grow our track on spotify ! thanks a lot !

Got good feedback and got us onto a playlist, would definitely recommend!

Real playlist I always send music to yall 🤫🙏🏾 too bad Nasty didn't make the cut

From my experience do not spend your money on this site. I received an email in which they talked about Spotify and its advertising campaigns. By mistake I thought it was a company recognized by Spotify, so I decided to invest the 17 US dollars. After a few days I received the comments, only a few brief lines saying giving some positive details, and very little in the negative, however my track was not chosen. I sent them two emails, one to where they responded to me and another to the support service. The support never responded, the other email did telling me that these are the conditions. It is very hard for independent artists, it is difficult to promote our music and one feels cheated. I don't recommend it at all

Greaserelease is exceptional in terms of response speed, reliability and very good organization! excellent experience!

I found the delay in receiving feedback disappointing. When it finally arrived, I was disheartened to read only a brief note stating, 'This song is not the genre we are looking for.' It would be helpful if your website specified the genres you are interested in. I have requested a refund, but unfortunately, I have yet to receive a response and probably never will.

A bittersweet experience. I've been reading the newsletter for over a year and finally decided to submit a song, expecting a review more than a placement, as I know I have a lot to improve. But I was really looking forward to that review, to know what I needed to work on.
And for 17$, I feel like 3 sentences of feedback is a bit short. I'm lost as to what to do to improve, so it's useless for me at the end of the day.

Seriously, 222 characters to tell me what's wrong, that's not even a tweet :/

EDIT: I was able to talk to the founder who, whilst not giving more feedback, was able to refund a part of the fee, which honestly makes it more acceptable. So more stars from me I guess.

I'm giving you 2 stars because you did say a few nice things about my track. Here's where I have a problem. For most of the negative reviews your response is we sent your track and no playlisters picked it up. I get that. Payola is against the rules. But in your response you said your a&r department decided my track wasn't good enough. You didn't even send my track. You brag that you have so many playlisters for so many genres. And you sent my track to no one. If I was someone who at least had a chance I'd be ok. But you personally decided no one would like it. I sent you 2 tracks and you did the same thing both times. If you really gave it a chance and you really had that many varied playlisters someone would have played my song. And by the way. Groover doesnt decide whether a song gets sent. The playlisters hear the song and decide for themselves. Much more honest!

Real and fast service eith amazing playlists!
