Tantalis Discovery
Discovering new music all year round
Tantalis Discovery is our year-round editorial programme, created to showcase independent artists and new music from around the world.
While The Tantalis Music Awards recognise artistic excellence through an annual blind judging process, Tantalis Discovery helps more artists be seen, heard, and discovered throughout the year.
Artists featured through Tantalis Discovery may be showcased across Tantalis platforms, including the website, social media channels, playlists, and editorial content.
A platform for emerging artists, new releases, and independent music worth discovering.
What a Discovery feature may include
A Tantalis Discovery feature may include:
- An artist or band profile on the Tantalis website
- Social media posts across Tantalis channels
- Instagram and Facebook Story features
- A featured Spotify track
- Editorial copy introducing the artist and their music
- Inclusion in Tantalis Discovery content and playlists, where appropriate
Tantalis Discovery is not a competition, award, ranking, shortlist, or finalist stage. It is an editorial feature programme designed to celebrate and share new music throughout the year.
