You are on Reddit right?
You’re probably just a lurker, like most of the Reddit audience. But if you’ve always wanted to join the conversation now is as good a time as any because we’ve found the 13 places you can share your music on Reddit.
Remember Reddit is a community. That means that people respect others who CONTRIBUTE something to the community. You need to be willing to comment, adding your thoughts, experiences, and opinions to whatever subreddit you are joining. Like in real life, people are MORE WILLING to help those who have given something already. You get it right? Great.
