How to Add SoundCloud to Spotify (Playlists, Songs & Podcasts)

By Dave Henry Updated on June 11, 2026

SoundCloud is a great place for indie artists to share niche genres, remixes, DJ sets, and self-produced hour-long mixtapes that Spotify's massive music library lacks. If you're tired of switching between these music platforms and syncing across devices for a more seamless and convenient listening experience, then this guide is for you.

In this guide, we'll share 3 easy ways to add music from SoundCloud to Spotify, helping you keep your personal SoundCloud and Spotify music libraries in one place.

Can You Add SoundCloud Songs to Spotify Directly?

Unfortunately, you can't add songs directly from SoundCloud to Spotify. There's no official SoundCloud Spotify integration that lets you connect SoundCloud to Spotify with just one click.

You cannot:

  • Sync accounts between platforms
  • Automatically transfer playlists
  • Import liked tracks directly into Spotify
  • Move SoundCloud uploads into Spotify

What you can do is transfer matching tracks, playlists, and liked content with a third-party transfer service, or add downloaded audio files as local files in Spotify on desktop if you already have the files on your computer

How to Pick the Best SoundCloud to Spotify Transfer Method

  • If you only need to move a few songs, especially tracks that are available for download and hard to find on Spotify, use Method 1 (manual download and transfer).
  • If you want to transfer a full playlist with mostly official releases, choose Method 2 (playlist matching tools).
  • If you need to transfer multiple playlists or your entire library, including SoundCloud-exclusive tracks, playlists, and podcasts, then Method 3 (save first, then upload to Spotify).

Method 1. Manually Transfer SoundCloud Songs to Spotify

For users who want to put SoundCloud exclusive songs, like remix demos, or unreleased tracks on Spotify, the only way is to manually download theses songs and then import them to Spotify as local files. Here's how to do it:

01 Download Songs from SoundCloud

There are two ways to download individual songs from SoundCloud:

01 Use the Download button in the SoundCloud web player. The artist can decide whether or not to allow listeners to download the audio of a track directly, and if so, there will be a download button below the waveform. Simply click the button and the file (e.g., MP3) will be saved to your computer.

02 Use a third-party SoundCloud music download tool. If there is no direct download button, you can use a specialized tool like ViWizard All-in-one Music Downloader to download tracks, playlists, albums, mixes, mixtapes, or whatever audio you want from SoundCloud as raw audio music files (for more information, skip to Method 3).

Note

To download SoundCloud songs that are not available for download, it's best to ask the artist for permission and for personal use only.

02 Upload Local Files to Spotify (Desktop)

The Spotify desktop app allows every user to add local files to build a personal music library. So you're free to import downloaded SoundCloud tracks into Spotify, bridging the music library between them:

01 Launch the Spotify app on your Windows or Mac computer.

02 Click the profile icon and select 'Settings.'

03 Scroll down to 'Library' section and toggle 'Show Local Files' on.

04 Click the 'Add a souce' button.

05 Select the folder that holds your downloaded SoundCloud music.

06 Once you add the folder as a source on Spotify, the downloaded SoundCloud tracks will display in your Spotify library's Local Files playlist.

03 Sync Local Files to Spotify Mobile (Optional)

To access these SoundCloud songs on Spotify mobile app, here's what you need to do:

On Computer:

01 Create a playlist for the added SoundCloud local files.
02 Toggle on the 'Download' button.

On Mobile:

01 Connect your mobile device to the same Wi-Fi network as your computer.
