Your music becomes the soundtrack to SDRUM Art's noir graphic novel universe. Each case file features an ambient score that plays while readers scroll through the story.
SoundCloud free account works — no Pro plan needed.
Go to SoundCloud.com and create a free account. Upload your track as an MP3 or WAV. Give it a title, genre tag, and cover art — this adds to the atmosphere of the case file.
🎵 Recommended: Ambient, lo-fi, jazz noir, or cinematic instrumental tracks work best for case file scores.
On your track page, click Edit (pencil icon). Under Permissions, set the track to Public. Private tracks cannot be embedded on external websites.
🔓 Public = anyone with the link can listen. Required for embedding.
Still in the Permissions tab, toggle "Enable app playback" to ON. This is the critical setting — without it, SoundCloud blocks the track from playing on sdrumart.com.
⚠️ This is the step most people miss. If app playback is off, the embed won't work.
On SoundCloud, click Share under your track, then Copy Link. Send that link to us and we'll handle the rest — embedding it into a case file page with a custom noir-styled player.
📋 The link should look like: soundcloud.com/yourname/track-title
