And then something magic happened, on the Friday the Spotify algorithm got to work, and put the song everywhere it wanted to.
The first day had 880 listeners and then for about 8 days i had 400+ listeners a day.
Now 3 weeks on, I'm averaging just over 100 again. My monthly listeners is now 3800.

At the end of April i got a message from Spotify saying I had 2753 listeners in April of which 2472 were new listeners.
Sure the payment per stream is lower than we'd like it to be, but over 80% of those streams were from people who had no idea who i was until Spotify told them the song was there.
Perhaps I've not framed this as well as i had, but in my opinion Spotify is good for artists.
