And let me tell you… nothing feels better than getting complimented on your music. On the other hand, releasing a single is low risk.

But when you release a single, you can immediately take that feedback on board and start working on the next track. They listened to music on the radio.

You write a song, or you find a song; the song moves you and you want it to move the world. So you record and distribute that song as a single to platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Once the song is available, anything could happen. The music could change the world, it could wow a few people, or it could go completely ignored. Of course chance always plays a part, but the outcome is partially in your own hands. In our world of short attention spans, releasing music more frequently can play a significant factor in your success.

With TuneCore you can distribute Singles and Albums to the digital stores. Each store has its own way of categorizing content. TuneCore cannot control how the stores group and format their content. If a single track is 10 minutes or longer, iTunes will automatically sell the release at an album price.
In music , a single is a type of release , typically a song recording of fewer tracks than an LP record or an album. This can be released for sale to the public in a variety of formats. In most cases, a single is a song that is released separately from an album, although it usually also appears on an album. Typically, these are the songs from albums that are released separately for promotional uses such as digital download or commercial radio airplay and are expected to be the most popular. In other cases a recording released as a single may not appear on an album. Despite being referred to as a single, in the era of music downloads , singles can include up to as many as three tracks. The biggest digital music distributor, iTunes Store , accepts as many as three tracks less than ten minutes each as a single. Historically, when mainstream music was purchased via vinyl records, singles would be released double-sided. That is to say, they were released with an A-side and B-side , on which two singles would be released, one on each side.
