Good To Know

Before We Work.

Does Surge Media use bots or fake streams?

Never. Not once, not ever. Every placement we pitch is with a real, vetted curator — and every campaign is built for clean, algorithm-safe growth. We’re so against fake traffic that we teach our artists how to spot it and defend their catalogs from it.

Is this safe for my Spotify profile?

Yes — safety is the foundation of everything we run. Every playlist is vetted through tools like Artists.tools and Chartmetric before your song goes anywhere near it, and our campaigns are built around the signals Spotify rewards, not the shortcuts it penalizes.

Do you guarantee streams?

No — and you should be careful with anyone who says yes. Our focus is entirely algorithmic: earning the saves, follows, and repeat listens that trigger Spotify’s own discovery systems. We guarantee the work, the outreach, and complete transparency — the results compound from there.

Do I keep 100% of my rights and royalties?

Always. We’re a service, not a label — we never touch your masters, your publishing, or your royalties. Everything your music earns is yours. You’re hiring a team, not signing a deal.

What genres do you work with?

Nearly all of them. With well over 25,000 playlists across our curator networks, there’s a lane for almost every sound — and genre-matching is literally our specialty. Your record only goes where it actually fits.

Is it too early — or too late — for my song?

Neither. If your song isn’t out yet, we’ll build the rollout with you so it launches with a plan behind it. If it’s been out for months, the algorithm doesn’t care about release dates — records get revived every day.

What happens after I select my songs?

Our team moves immediately. Your campaign is processed, your coordinator is assigned, and everything is done and delivered in under 48 hours. From there, outreach begins and you’re kept in the loop as your campaign moves.

Who is the strategy call for?

Artists, management teams, labels — even group calls with your whole circle. It’s a collaboration and learning session: where your music stands, what your goals are, and what the right next move looks like.
