How it works

Droploud is the underground platform for artists who want to grow their audience and get discovered around the world. No paywalls. No boosted placement. Just downloads, ranked honestly.

The process, in three steps.

Upload Your Track

Create your artist profile and upload. Set up a custom gate with the actions you want: follow on SoundCloud, email, Instagram, and more.

Share the Gate Link

Drop the link on Instagram Stories, TikTok, Twitter. Fans click, complete your actions, and unlock the free download instantly.

Climb the Charts

Every download counts. Fresh downloads carry triple weight in the first 30 days. The more you share, the higher you climb.

Your chart score, calculated.

×3.0
Downloads · last 30 days

Strongest signal. Fresh music climbs fastest.

×1.0
Downloads · 31–90 days

Recent downloads count, with less weight.

×0.3
Historical downloads

Catalog matters, but velocity matters more.
