Can I choose my Boomplay release date and time?

Can I pitch my music to Boomplay playlists?
Boomplay features editorially curated playlists across genres and regional markets. Labels and distributors can submit eligible priority releases for editorial consideration where applicable. Euphoria can support eligible releases with playlist pitching, but final placement is determined by Boomplay and cannot be guaranteed.
