Music Tracks

You can create and share original music tracks directly from the Posts composer. With the Music Mode toggle, you can transform any post into a music track by adding details like track title, genre, and mood. Your tracks will appear in the Music section and can be showcased on your profile with a dedicated Music layout.

Creating Music Tracks

To create a music track:

1. Open the Posts composer (click "New Post")
2. Click the "Music Mode" toggle button in the action bar
3. Upload your audio file using the audio upload button
4. Fill in your track details:
   • Track Title (required)
   • Genre (optional)
   • Mood (optional)
5. Confirm that the music is your original work
6. Set visibility (who can see and listen)
7. Publish your track

What Makes a Track Different?

Music tracks are special posts that:

• Appear in Music Section: Your tracks show up in the global Music page at /music
• Track-Specific Fields: Include track title, genre, and mood for better discovery
• Record Store Design: Beautiful track cards with record store aesthetic
• Play Tracking: Automatic play count tracking to see how many times your track has been played
• Music Profile Support: Can be showcased in a dedicated Music profile layout

Music Mode vs. Regular Audio Posts

The difference between music tracks and regular posts with audio:

• Music Tracks: Designed for original music, appear in Music section, have track-specific metadata, and track play counts
• Regular Audio Posts: For voice memos, podcasts, interviews, or any other audio content - appear in regular feeds without special music features

Use Music Mode when you're sharing original music you've created. Use regular posts for other types of audio content.

Required Information

When creating a music track, you must provide:

• Audio File: Your track audio (uploaded as an audio attachment)
• Track Title: The name of your song
• Original Music Confirmation: A checkbox confirming this is your original work

Genre and mood are optional but help listeners discover your music.

Music Profile Layout

Once you've created tracks, you can showcase them with a dedicated Music profile layout:

• Dedicated Music View: All your tracks displayed together in a record store-inspired layout
• Auto-Play Playlists: Tracks automatically play in sequence when visitors listen
• Profile Option: Available as a profile layout option in your settings (if you have tracks)
