SoundBirth Marketplace: The Biggest Upgrade of the Year for Artists

The SoundBirth Marketplace has always been one of the core features of our app — a place where independent artists can collaborate with content creators, request feedback from tastemakers, and connect with real music professionals. This December, we are proud to announce the complete redesign of the Marketplace, making it more intuitive, more transparent, and more powerful than ever.

This blog post breaks down every improvement: the new workflow for promotion, the updated SB Coins system, the benefits for artists, and why human-driven visibility remains the most effective way to grow your music in 2024 and beyond.

Why Human Promotion Is Still the Most Powerful Tool for Artists

If there’s one truth in today’s music industry, it’s this: algorithms amplify what humans already love.

That’s why real content creators — people who react, share, and talk about your music — remain the strongest and most organic form of promotion. TikTok reactions, Instagram Reels, Stories, and user-generated content (UGC) create social proof that no paid ad can replicate.

At SoundBirth, we don’t believe in:

  • Paid ads with no strategy

  • Low-quality “no-brain” promotion

  • Playlist buying or fake placements (which we ban instantly)

Instead, we believe in authentic, human visibility — the kind that builds real fans and sparks real virality.

This idea is at the center of the new Marketplace.

The Redesigned Marketplace: How It Works

The update is rolling out in two phases:

  • Content Creators section — live now on Android, and iOS is coming in a few days.

  • Song Review / Tastemaker section — arriving next week.

The new workflow is simple and takes only a few steps:

1. Select the track you want to promote

You choose the song that deserves more visibility.

2. Choose where you want to be promoted

  • Instagram Reel

  • Instagram Story

  • TikTok

3. Set your budget

Whether you want to spend $2 or plan a bigger campaign, the Marketplace adapts to every artist.

4. Get AI-powered campaign suggestions

Our AI and SoundBirth managers recommend the best content creators for your track, based on their quality, relevance, and past performance. You get transparent, curated options — not random placements.

This workflow makes promotion clearer, smarter, and more efficient.

A Much Simpler SB Coins System: 1 SB Coin = 1 USD/EUR

We’ve rebuilt the SB Coins system to be more transparent and artist-friendly.
From now on:

👉 1 SB Coin = 1 USD (or EUR)

This means you always know the exact price of a deal at first glance. No conversions, no confusion.

Why some deals appear more expensive now

This is intentional — and it’s actually better for artists.

Before:

  • Coin packs were expensive (ex: $10 gave you only 5 SB Coins).

  • Deals appeared lower in price because the packs were covering all operational fees, not the deals themselves.

Now:

  • $10 gives you 10 SB Coins.

  • Deals display their real cost, including platform fees, SoundBirth’s small share, and other necessary costs.

🎉 Result: the overall cost is lower and far more transparent.

SB Coins Converter: Even More Advantages for Artists

With the updated SB Coins Converter, you can now turn your royalties directly into SB Coins inside the app.
This gives you:

  • More SB Coins than buying standard packs

  • No banking or transfer fees

  • Instant access to promote your music in the Marketplace

This creates a fully virtuous circle: earn → convert → promote → grow.

New Prices for Pay-Per-Release Distribution

For artists who prefer not to subscribe, distribution remains fully accessible — and cheaper than before:

  • Single → 2 SB Coins

  • EP → 5 SB Coins

  • Album → 10 SB Coins

Your Wallet Just Doubled in Value

To celebrate the new SB Coins system, every artist who had SB Coins in their wallet received an automatic x2 bonus(rounded up).

If you had 20 SB Coins yesterday, you now have 40.
No action required. 🎁

Conclusion

The redesigned SoundBirth Marketplace marks a major milestone in our mission: giving artists professional tools that are transparent, affordable, and truly impactful. With human-driven promotion, a simplified SB Coins system, and new features powered by AI, we’re building the most complete artist platform in the world — all inside one app.

🚀 Explore the new Marketplace today and boost your music the right way.
