⚠️ Common mistakes to avoid
Below are the most common mistakes in publishing electronic music releases, along with their recommended solutions.
Common Mistake | Editorial Correction Required |
Excessive use of capital letters in titles | Use Title Case or Standard Capitalization format . Example: ✅ Deep in the Night , ❌ DEEP IN THE NIGHT . |
Meaningless or repetitive descriptions | Avoid text like: "Great electro dance track." Use relevant descriptions or leave the field blank if it's not informative. |
Naming a track “Original Mix” in the title | It's not required. If there are no alternate versions, don't include "Original Mix." Only include versions when there are remixes, edits, or official mixes. |
Add subgenre names within the title | Don't include "(Tech House)" or "(Deep Dubstep)" in the title. These belong in the genre field , not the track title. |
Including unrelated brands or seals in the metadata | Do not add brand names, stores, or references such as “Beatport Exclusive” or “UMW Records” to unauthorized fields. |
Stuffing metadata with irrelevant keywords | Don't use tags like "electro club Ibiza remix hard house" if they don't correspond to the actual content. This is considered keyword stuffing . |
Repeat the same title for album and track | If it's an EP or album with multiple tracks, avoid using the same name for each track. Give each track its own individual identity. |
✅ Best practices for electronic releases
Clear and consistent titles
Use artist names and titles that represent the track's aesthetic without unnecessary embellishments.Versions and remixes
Use the correct format:Track Name (Remixer Name Remix)
Track Name (Extended Mix)
Track Name (Radio Edit)
Multiple artists or collaborations
If there is a main producer and a guest vocalist or DJ, use separate fields for each role.Example:
Producer: Main Artist
Guest DJ: Featuring
Valid subgenres
Electronic music is divided into styles such as:House / Deep House / Tech House
Techno / Minimal / Hard Techno
Trance / Progressive / Psy-Trance
Drum & Bass / Dubstep / Breaks
Ambient / Downtempo / Chill Out
Choose only one from each release, the one that best represents the work.
Avoid generic content
E.g., tracks with repetitive loops, no mix or master, or technical audio errors will be automatically rejected.
