How Do I Share A Playlist on Soundcloud.Com?

Music imparts a calm feeling in an individual. It relieves stress, lightens up the mood, reduces depression and anxiety and boosts your memory. Music is also a vital component of the society that brings it together. Whether Jazz, traditional classics, or gospel music has the potential to resolve the differences between people and bring them to a mutual understanding.

Many mobile applications and online services offer music streams at a cost or free. Others like SoundCloud have both a free service and a premium service. Hence, regardless of your financial status, you can still enjoy music on SoundCloud. The website has many functionalities that enhance user experience, making it among the leading online music streaming services. With SoundCloud, you can search for your favorite song, download it, create a playlist, share it or even like other people's playlists.

You can share the playlist or song within or outside the platform on social media sites, your website or even email. But how do you share a playlist on SoundCloud? This post will provide a detailed step-by-step process of sharing a playlist on sound cloud.

Sharing a Playlist on SoundCloud

The process involves two main steps; creating the playlist and sharing it on the platform.

Creating the Playlist

  1. Visit SoundCloud's website and log-in with your email and password on your browser. If you do not have an account, click on "Create Account" and proceed creating one.
  2. After you are logged in, you can search for your favorite songs or proceed to the library and select the song you want based on the various categories.
  3. After finding the song or album you want, open the song and click on "More" (three dots) below the song.
  4. On the "More" dropdown, select add to a playlist. If you want to add the song to a playlist, type in the playlist's name or select it from your displayed playlists. Click on "Create a Playlist" to make the song part of a new playlist.
  5. Enter the SoundCloud playlist title, and set the playlist's privacy to either public or private. A public playlist can be seen by anybody, while a private playlist can only be seen by those you set up.
  6. Click on "Save" to complete creating the playlist and adding the songs.

Sharing the Playlist

After you've created the playlist, it's your turn to share it. Sharing the playlist ensures that your friends can access your collection and enjoy it too. To share the playlist:

  1. Proceed to your account (indicated by your username) and click on it. A dropdown indicating things like the profile, likes, stations, tracks will appear. Click on "Playlists."
  2. A new window displaying your playlists will appear. Select the SoundCloud playlist you want to share and click on it.
  3. Click on share below the playlist's cover, and a new window will pop up. You can choose to share the playlist on social media, embed it on your blog or website or share it with other people within the platform.
  4. If the playlist was set to private, you need to copy the secret link to share it with your friends.
  5. If you want to share the playlist with other users on SoundCloud, enter their profile name on the "To" text box, then click on send. You can also add other playlists by clicking "Add track or Playlist."
