Send tech house promo to DJs and radio

600+ DJs and 40+ radio shows in NeedlePool’s Promo pool play tech house, in 57 countries. Send them your unreleased track as an Audio Promo campaign: you pick the genre, and NeedlePool sends each one a personal link and shows by name who pressed play, downloaded and rated it. The Promo pool opens with Starter, $14.99 a month.

Tech house DJs and radio in the pool

700+ curators in the pool play tech house. A curator tagged with several genres is counted once, and the numbers are recounted when the pool changes (checked hourly).

The largest groups are in United Kingdom (100+), United States (70+), Spain (40+).

Numbers only. NeedlePool never exports pool addresses or lists them on screen: you choose by genre, country and role, and it sends the campaign for you. Being in the pool is not a promise that anyone will listen.

How to send tech house promo that gets a listen

  1. 1Send to the whole genre firstThe tech house curators in the pool are spread over 57 countries, and the largest group, 100+, is in United Kingdom. Narrow by country only for a local release or a tour.
  2. 2Send it before releaseA promo works while DJs can still play the track first. Once it is on streaming platforms it is an announcement, not a promo.
  3. 3Put the facts in the first linesGenre, BPM, key, release date and one sentence on how your tech house track sounds. A DJ decides from these whether to press play.
  4. 4Follow up onceA week or so later, write once more to the people who never opened it. From the Pro plan up, tick one box in the campaign and NeedlePool does it for you.

What the DJs get, and what you see

Each curator gets an email with a personal link to a player page for your track. They can stream it, download the file you uploaded if you allow downloads, and rate it or write a line back.

The campaign report names who opened the email, who pressed play, who downloaded and what each person rated and wrote. It can’t tell you whether a DJ played the track in a set: some say so in their feedback, and for the rest a listen is the most you can see.

NeedlePool doesn’t guarantee plays, support or airplay.

Why there is no tech house DJ promo list to download

The pool holds 5,900+ curators: DJs, radio hosts and YouTube channels with promo addresses that NeedlePool collected, checked and tagged by genre. It never exports the addresses or lists them on screen; you see a curator’s address only when they reply to you. You choose by genre and country, and NeedlePool sends the campaign, so the list stays clean and nobody’s inbox gets resold.

If you already have your own list, import it and send to it and the pool in one campaign; overlapping addresses are removed so nobody gets two copies. Your imported contacts stay in your account: other artists never see them, and your rows are never moved into the shared pool.
