Artists — This One’s for You: Submission Rules (Yes, They Matter)

Want your song played next Saturday? Submit. Follow the rules. Seriously. Too many promising tracks get bounced for tiny missteps — the number one offence is not having an active BlueSky account. If you’re serious about being heard, get your socials in order and follow the submission checklist to the letter. Artists who skip it get left at the back of the queue while the rule-followers dance past them.

Kyle Alessandro — «Halo»

Norwegian pop powerhouse Kyle Alessandro is stepping into a bold new era, channelling his multicultural roots and multilingual flair into a sound that’s as cinematic as it is emotionally charged.

Tomek Zdyb — «Bite Your Tongue»

Beneath the playful irony sits a clear warning that their negativity won’t go unanswered, blending ridicule and controlled threat to show who truly holds the power. Submit your song and boost your chances to almost 99% — or wait on that tiny 1% gamble. Your call.

Nikk Mager — «Phenomenal»

From Popstars to The Fizz (yes, the iconic Bucks Fizz), Nikk Mager is storming back into the spotlight with his new single «Phenomenal» — now supercharged by a remix from legendary pop hitmaker Matt Pop. It’s Nikk’s bold return to his roots, a defiant comeback moment that signals a fresh, fearless new era in his career. Artists, take note. Nikk Mager hit the LGBTQ Music Chart by submitting — not waiting. Your song could be next. Don’t gamble on 1%.

Dani Ride — «Tan Inocentes»

Dani Ride, the Chilean singer‑songwriter from Antofagasta, grew up in a tightly knit Christian musical family before stepping into the spotlight as a teenager. He first made waves on TV at just 16, appearing on Yingo (2011) and Factor X 2 (2012), then built a loyal online following with Spanish‑language covers on YouTube — including his standout version of Bruno Mars’ «Just the Way You Are». Submit your song and boost your chances to almost 99% — or wait on that tiny 1% gamble. Your call.

Matt Terry — «Karma»

British pop favourite Matt Terry is storming back onto the scene with a bold new sound, marking his most fearless musical era yet.
