Where do musicians and podcasters hang out online?
A producer has a loop she loves and 40 minutes before her day job starts. Music people trust their ears. Post a short clip of the workflow and it will travel farther than any landing page.
That scene is a composite, not a real person. The rooms below are real, picked by hand, and nobody paid to be on this list.
The rooms where musicians and podcasters already talk
- r/WeAreTheMusicMakers: Working musicians; soft promo rules.
- r/podcasting: If you serve podcasters.
- r/audioengineering: Technical audio crowd.
- KVR Audio Forum: Plugin and DAW users; a clip of the workflow travels farthest.
- Sound On Sound Forum: Recording and production talk.
- Music Practice & Theory SE: Craft Q&A for musicians.
- Sound Design Stack Exchange: If you serve sound designers specifically.
Rules change. Read each sidebar before you post, and check whether self-promotion is allowed at all.
How to post there without getting removed
A clip of the workflow will travel farther than a landing page.
- Write a post that is useful even if nobody clicks your link.
- Say plainly that you are the maker. People forgive a builder; they do not forgive a disguise.
- Stay for an hour and answer every reply. The comments are where the first users come from.
- Post in one room, learn, then adapt the words for the next. The same text pasted into three rooms reads as spam in all three.
Your next two moves
Run the finder on your own app →
The finder matches your one-line description against every niche map, then gives you a checklist, a share link and a fill-in-the-blanks first post written for r/WeAreTheMusicMakers.
Then find musicians and podcasters on X: seven saved searches that catch people describing the problem right now, built for the word podcast. Change it to your own.
Builder rooms, for feedback rather than customers
- r/SideProject: Best default builder room for "I made this."
- r/indiehackers: Solo founders; revenue and lessons beat polish.
- r/alphaandbetausers: Ask for specific testers and say what they get.
- r/roastmystartup: Cheap, blunt landing-page critique.
Builders give great critique and rarely pay. Use these for testers, then go back to the rooms above. More in Best subreddits to launch a SaaS.
