Auto-generated from all reviews of this business. For reference only.Jaxon, was extremely helpful and my experience was top notch. Thank you Jaxon for your professionalism and help. Joe
Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re really glad Jaxon could help and deliver a top notch experience.
So far, so go. Not done with first campaign yet so we'll see how well the service works. More to follow.....
We appreciate the trust so far!
Thank you, we really appreciate it!
The company is legit. They have strong customer service. Very responsive. Also I like the way their website works. Very transparent feedback. Some of their other legit competitors are a lot less transparent about the playlist approvals / denials. Would use again.
Thank you so much for the kind words. We really appreciate the trust and are glad the transparency and support stood out to you.
As a music curator, I’ve had a great experience using Apolone. The platform is well-organized, making music discovery and reviews smooth and professional. The submission quality is solid, and communication is transparent. Payments are processed within just a few days, which shows reliability and respect for curators. I’d definitely recommend Apolone to both curators and artists looking for a trustworthy platform.
Thank you for the thoughtful feedback. We really appreciate having curators like you on Apolone and we’re glad the experience has been smooth and transparent.
The tracks I used them for were flagged for bots and now I have to payback CD baby for the “botted activity” . I was lucky they didn’t take down my stuff. I only used them for these particular tracks.
Hi Ed - We take the issue of artificial streams very seriously and conduct regular checks across all playlists. Since we do not own playlists but work with independent curators, these security measures are essential to protect both artists and their music. Please reach out to our support team at [email protected] so that we can double check on any potential campaign and provide assistance. Best, Team Apolone
Very quick responsible via email. So helpful
Thank you, appreciate it!
Very prompt and thorough answer and I appreciate that very much. The bigger issue about the 11 of 12 playlists I got placed in not actually being played by anyone is a bigger question and makes me wonder about whether the campaign is worth it. We’ll have to see if that shifts. But the customer service around my question was well done.
We understand your concern about playlist activity. Engagement can take time as playlists rotate and listeners discover new tracks, and we continue monitoring campaigns to improve results where possible. We hope to see momentum build as your campaign progresses and we are always here if you need anything.
I joined Apolone as a curator and i can say i like everything about the way they handle matters. i believe with solid cooperation and abiding to their rules and regulation all would be fine with anyone trying to join the platform. i would say a big thank you for being one of the journey right now. Thank you Apolone!!
Hi Abass - thank you for your wonderful feedback. We are happy to have you as part of our curator network! Best, Team Apolone
I originally had a dispute regarding the payout threshold and curator score. However, after escalating the matter, Jaxon and the management team reached out and manually processed my payment. I appreciate their willingness to make an exception and resolve the matter professionally
Hi Ella - we are happy that any misunderstanding has been resolved and we look forward to our continuous collaboration. Best, Team Apolone
It’s Fantastic how they put together my Article, very professional, informative, and everything that i wanted from the service thanks Apolone.
We truly appreciate the kind words, thank you!
There is a lack of sub genre representation on this site which cuts off access for many artist like myself. If you have a generic style ( jazz, hip hop, rock, etc) this is an adequate site for placements. If you create sub genres within the industry standard personally it’s not a good investment. I did have 2 songs over 3 months place but to have the other 4 do nothing wasn’t a good enough return IMO. Do your research and make sure your investment is used wisely when doing business with Apolone,
Hi Dnard, thank you for sharing your feedback. I am sorry the campaign did not fully meet your expectations. We would really like the opportunity to make this right for you. Please check your email when you have a moment.
To this very point in time, they have done everything they said they would do, and I'm happy with their results. Even when there was a small tech hiccup, within hours had it back on tack, no push back. Also they respond like real people, they don't act like some high authority. I like what I'm seeing and will use them more in the future.
Thank you! We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the results and our support. Looking forward to working with you more in the future!
It was a little rocky at first with a website issue, but Ivy and Jaxon stepped up right away with actual human service to get my campaign up and running. They responded quickly to questions, and helped me navigate some stuff I wasn’t clear on. Best of all, I always knew I was dealing with an actual human. That is something that is really hard to find these days—and regardless of how my campaign turns out, I’m gonna feel like my money was well spent. I’ve used Boost Collective, Submithub, and Groover. Despite the small technical glitch, Apolone has been my best experience. Empire Way will use them again, and I feel good about recommending them.
Thank you for sharing! We’re thrilled to hear Ivy and Jaxon could provide real, human support and that your experience with Apolone stood out. We can’t wait to work with you again!
They wrote a good bio and got me on 4 Spotify playlist. Spotify have made changes that are unsupportive for artists who live from month to month barely making it and Spotify was already sticking it to the artist before this. Sadly you only deal with Spotify so your services are no longer needed. I feel the cost I paid for all my Apolone services was much too high for only getting on 4 playlists. Not worth the cost.
Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad you found value in the bio and the playlist placements. We completely understand your frustration with Spotify’s recent changes and how difficult they can be for independent artists. We’d be glad to improve your experience. Please check your email so we can help further.
In todays age of AI and robotics, the human experience is missing thereby resulting in stratified encounters. I love the blend this company offers and the quick turn around. Four out of five stars because even though response was prompt, holistically, the outcome could have been better.
Thank you so much for sharing this thoughtful feedback. We really appreciate you recognizing the human side of what we do and our quick turnaround. Please check your email, we can make your experience even better.
They got back with me as soon as I could thank you everyone.
You’re very welcome! We’re glad we could respond quickly
I've been patient and cooperative. I sent screenshots of Bank charges of my bank showing they were paid. I've explained what happened and still the problem is Not Resolved. I don't Know for sure, but something is obviously Wrong. I will make one last check of my bank account and if it has Not Been credited the two charges, I Will immediately Report to Law Investigative Agencies. If this is a Scam, then it needs to be determined by the FBI and pertinent Investigative Agencies. Unfortunately!
I very much liked the fact that your team responded in a very fast and professional manner and game me an overall product that met my expectations :) The only thing I wish I could change is the ability to be placed in guaranteed playlist placement after getting denied by certain curators. I wish I could have been re-pitched to alternative curators after those denials. Overall , great work and thanks. I look forward to working with your team again soon ! -YEXTER
Hi Yexter - thank you very much for your positive feedback. We are happy that the service met your expectations! We appreciate you sharing the feedback regarding the declined pitches however the decision whether a song is playlisted or not depends on the curators and their independent criteria. We are not able to guarantee a placement or influence the decision as this would be against industry rules and regulations. We look forward to continue the successful collaboration and wish you much success in your musical journey! Best, Team Apolone
I’m signed up on Apolone as a curator for a few months now, and I can say it’s a reliable service. They actually verify curators and make sure playlists aren’t botted and that songs don’t get removed too quickly from the lists. The site does have issues sometimes - there was even a period when it was down for about two weeks - but they always replied to emails and questions, and I can see the platform improving over time. It’s not perfect, but overall I’ve had a really good experience and feel like the team genuinely tries to do things the right way. Definitely not a scam.
Hi Polychroma - thank you so much for your positive feedback. We will keep working on continuously upgrading our platform and services in order to provide the best possible user experience for both artists and curators., and appreciate you being part of our curator network. Best, Team Apolone
