Uploading Tracks to DISCO

DISCO is a great place to upload your music collection or files and manage your content. In DISCO, files are referred to as Tracks regardless of their format (e.g. audio, video, document, image, etc).

At a glance

You can upload music to your DISCO using the Playlist Creator or the Bulk Uploader Tool (recommended if you're uploading 100+ files). Jump to this section if you need to import music from another system.

When using the Playlist Creator, there are a few different options:

Also, when you upload files locally (from your computer), we will de-duplicate files if you attempt to upload duplicates.

πŸ“Ž Note: Clicking Save in the Playlist Creator after uploading will create a Playlist for the uploaded Tracks. However, this is not required, as anything you upload in the Playlist Creator will be automatically added to your DISCO regardless. But we do recommend getting in the habit of creating Playlists to keep your music organized.
