About

Bio and how they support artists

Tonspion (="sound spy") is the biggest German music blog with over 250.000 music lovers/month on our website with a team of editors for each genre. We love to give individual feedback that you can use for your promo materials, but we cannot review and publish every track and have to make a sharp selection for our users. We are/were all musicians ourselves and know the pain of being rejected. We will treat all your submissions with respect, even if we have to decline. Thanks for creating and sharing your work with us! "Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better." (Samuel Beckett) We introduce new tracks in a blog post (German language) and in our genre playlists on Spotify. We have a team of different editors for all genres with a focus on Indie Pop & Rock, Club Music, Rap, and R'n'B. Our listeners are millennials to Gen X (25-50). We focus on the post, our playlist is just a bonus.
