[All Platforms][Discover] Playlist discovery

One simple but pretty cool discovery feature I would like to see is if you could go to a artist and see which popular playlists that artist belonged to. Like an tab for Appears on Playlists or something. It would be a great way of discovering new user playlists

This would be great !

  • [All Platforms][Discover] Playlists for the atmosphere

    Atmosphere ( Atmos ) PlaylistsAnd I don't mean the gases around the planet. I mean the "pervading tone or mood of a place, situation, or work of art" - so states Oxford. - Spotify is set-up for the best possible personal music expereience, and they've nailed it. The "Genres and Moods" section is a perfect  feature and is awesome for finding new music and artists while "Hanging Out and Relaxing", having a "Productive morning", or feeling "All Out 90's". Sometimes you'll stumble across a playlist that would be good to use with a group of people - but they are designed to put yourself in the mood or interact with what you are doing at that moment.- The system is built for headphones basically, personal computer, or a nice bluetooth speaker system ( Sound Sticks name drop ). Either the headphones or speaker system- the group is either just you or maybe one other person- possible two or three more. With Atmosphere playlists you would be able to select the situation you are in or creating. Examples below.  :Playing Cards ( this is where the Playlist cover would be important and fun to create - the cover art would have to depict exactly the "atmosphere" you are in at that moment ). My suggestion for the Album Art would be a bunch of friends sitting around a table playing Cards Against Humanity. We all know Cards, 6-10 friends sitting around a table drinking, having fun, laughing and just enjoying the moment. All the attention is on the game but music should be in the background- and yes you can browse for a playlist but this is the point of the idea. Instant, tested, and ready to go. The research and development on this playlist would be a lot of fun as well- "alright everyone, for the next 5 Friday nights we have to sit, play cards, and pick songs that fit the moment". First song = Perspective by Until the Ribbon Breaks. or Everlasting Light by the Black Keys. :Porch Party. Album art of a Screened in Porch with pong set-up ( if that is allowed- not sure. PC check ). Group of 2 on 2 playing, 4-5 sitting around a table chatting - maybe a grill outside with people cooking. Need roughly 100 songs to be played on random to suit the moment. This would be cool if you can narrow down the Atmosphere by selecting how many people are in attendance. A playlist for 10 people partying should be very different than a playlist for a party of 50 people.- Spotify does have the "Start Radio" feature, which is not marketed enough ( competition with Pandora ). And this feature is great, but you select a country singer with a awesome song and start the radio off that singer or the song, you will eventually get songs that do not fit the moment.  :Say at work, 4-5 different people working in one area or that could be everyone in the whole company- it is 4-5 different views of music. Each person could and most likely likes their own genre and songs. And yes there are "At Work" playlists, but you have to stumble across them going through the different genres and moods. Then you have to find a playlists that you think everyone will like, and hope that no embarassing songs come on. Three examples- but could be endless. I had 8tracks for a while ( still have it but have Spotify premium so naturally doesn't get opened anymore ). But you could select a different Mood and then a different Genre and it would produce playlists based off the two random selections- don't mean to copy that process, that is more of the music genome type deal. But be able to select group size, maybe group age (average), and atmoshere and playlist will generate from those selections. Just a thought, but taken the thinking out of the selection will make it popular. Possible Features:Group Bluetooth for same playlists- if you happen to have more than one set of blue-tooth headphones in the room. Silent Disco's are a perfect example.Hold Music Playlist - being on hold is an atmosphere, not typically a pleasant one but one none the less. Each business that puts people on hold on a constant basis- good music for those people ( and safe foreveryone, no swears are obscene lyrics ) would be awesome. I think it would be cool- seeing if it is a shared idea. I have Spotify on everyday, and since the only one with premium at my current job ( trying to recruit )- my Spotify gets played at work. I saw Spotify Corporate was also an idea, as it should be- I will go back and Kudo's that idea. But this idea could work for that feature as well- or the basis of it.

  • [All Platforms][Discover] Change the language of the content

    Users should be able to view the content in the language they want, regardless of where they are. I have seen threads from users in 2012 with this exact issue and I am simply unable to even slightly understand why a simple country dropdown menu has still not been added. In your knowledge base, you suggest users to change the language of their payment gateway, but this is not a realistic option, since the country of choice must match with the country of your payment gateway (PayPal is the common and obvious example here). We should not be forced to seeing content in a language that we might not even understand!

  • [All Platforms][Discover] Discover Weekly

    The discover weekly feature is excellent, however I was disappointed yesterday to notice that last weeks playlist had disappeared. It would be great to be able to view previous discover weekly playlists.  Thanks

  • [All Platforms][Discover] Prevent Duplicates in Discover Weekly

    Discover Weekly is the one of the best features I've seen from Spotify since I've been a subscriber: I've been finding so many great new tracks. One minor issue I've found is that I occasionally get recommendations in the playlists that I've already gotten in previous weaks (specifically, I know for a fact I've been recommended Leonard Cohen's 'Chelsea Hotel #2 more than once). 
    It should fairly simple to implement a check to confirm that the song hasn't been recommended previously, or at least a check to make sure the user listened to it.

    Updated: 2015-07-27Marked as new idea.

  • [All Platforms][Discover] Track appears on...

    We have already such feature for Artists and i would like to have it for Tracks too. I think this would be good way to find new compilations and playlists.

  • [All Platforms][Discover] Follow/Subscribe to a label

     What I'd love, is to have an option - much like the very popular idea of adding the possibility of subscribing to a particular artist - to subscribe to a specific label.  Labels, or at least the smaller ones, usually curate a specific sound. French Express, Kitsuné, DubKraft, Boys Noize, Ed Banger, all of these labels have a distinct type of music they release. As a fan of specialized record labels, I find keeping up with all the newsletters, Facebook updates, blog posts, tweets, and whatever other communication the label is using can be hard. And just subscribing to one particular artist isn't satisfactory, since labels sign new artists, and label old timers change their style to a degree in which they no longer fit the label's sound. Adding the possibility to subscribe to labels guarantees us the opportunity to stay up to date with the labels providing our favourite sounds, without the hassle of having to wade through a deluge of information. Edit(Premify): Added "Follow" in the title to keep the idea up to the newest follow feature. ;) Edit: Well, it's been years since I suggested this, and still no progress. Nevertheless, thanks for all the kudos so far, and maybe one day we'll get enough kudos to get noticed!

    Hey there.
    I like the idea where I receive notification when artist I follow releases new content.
    But problem is, I like also record labels like DJ Beat Records, Zooland Records, Global Airbeatz, Punch Records, Bazooka Records, Spinnin' Records, Kontor Records, Planet Punk Music, Munix Music, Central Stage of Music etc... Why not to add personal page to record label where all the content released by label, information about new gigs by artistsa in label, news from label and all other stuff like follow this label, links to youtube channel, site etc.
    Please implement it! I really want to follow some record labels like I described before!! These are BEST LABELS in the world!
    Please add your Kudos now or never!!! Can't you see, WE NEED THIS?

  • [All Platforms][Discover] black list artist/song

    Hi. It would be a way to block artist or songs I realy dislike. The same way I click for like song or artist, I think it's a must I mark a dislike or I don't want to hear never in my life.  Thanks

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Please restore View as Album List feature

    View as Album List was a great feature. Based on comments I have seen on other forums, I am not the only one who thinks so. Please restore this feature. Reasons:1) Images are much easier to see than text. I have reached the age of reading glasses. Before this feature was removed, I could easily find songs / albums in playlists. Now I have to find my glasses beforehand! 2) Images are much more compelling and attractive than text. A picture tells a thousand words etc. The whole look and feel of Spotify is enhanced through the use of album images. Removing them seems like going against good user experience practice. 3) Nostalgia. Although I love Spotify and I firmly believe that subscription is the future of music, I still feel some nostalgia for "possessing" a collection of albums. Displaying album covers reinforces the feeling of having a collection of albums in a playlist. Note that all three arguments apply equally to desktop and iPad versions of Spotify. November 2013: Response to the comments from Spotify...- There is no need for a cmd+G control. All playlists should always display the album cover.- The Collections product was announced almost a year ago but there is no sign of it.- A Collections product that simply displays the thousands of albums that I have ever listened to is not a viable solution in my opinion. I would need multiple collections (i.e.. playlists). May-2014I have created a new idea http://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Ideas/Display-Album-Cover-on-Your-Music-Songs/idi-p/791029 requesting cover art on your music (and playlists). Please give it your kudos. July 2015I note that Apple Music displays album art on playlists on all platforms. 

    Again - We shouldn't have to vote about stuff like this. Of course there should be an album list. And it should also be obvious how to enable it, not just with a keyboard command or obscure menu option. Also - please consider an album view in the mobile apps as well. I have a lot of playlists with just albums, and they are a pain in the ass to use on the Iphone / Ipad.

  • Discover Playlist Not Showing Up

    I've been paying for the Premium version of Spotify for over year, but I don't have any Discover Weekly playlist. Even when I go to Browse, and click on the Discover tab, I can't find the playlist anywhere. It doesn't show up in the webplayer or on my mac. I've looked at my friends accounts and they all have their Discover playlists. Why isn't it working for me???

    Hey @hpguru!By default the user starts following the playlist.You can always unfollow it and the playlist will disappear from your sidebar.If you ever want to get it again, just head over to the Explore section, then to Discover and you'll see it there. Hope this helps! ♫I have the Browse > Discover tab... and there are whole songs in there listed individually... but i still dont see a playlist. No playlist in my playlists either. Haven't unfollowed it, because I really want to try it out. Any way to tell if this is an error, or if I just need to be more patient? Maybe someone can screen capture where the playlist appears in the Discover tab, just in case I'm blindly missing it.

  • Error message iPod cannot update b/c all of the playlists no longer exist

    Hello. I have been getting this error message. "Songs on the iPod "MAR(the name of my iPod)" cannot update because all of the playlists selecting for updating no longer exist." And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist. I have a feeling ths might have to do with the fact that on vacation the person I was visiting gave me a gift of putting all of his music that would fit into the external hard drive part of my iPod, and for the past week or so I have been putting that music onto my 40 GB portable hard drive at home. I suspect I took a vital folder out of my iPod by accident. Right now I have the folder iPod_control if I open my iPod up in My Computer. Am I missing something? Right now my iPod is empty because iTunes made a composite playlist last week and I deleted it thinking I could get my real playlists back. Can you help me, or reccomend a site/someone who can? Thank you.

    hiya!
    And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist.
    let's just doublecheck this. folks get this message if they have "automatically update selected playlists only" selected in their itunes "ipod" preferences tab. so bring up that tab ("edit > preferences", click "ipod" while the ipod is showing up in the source list), and do a playlist by playlist crosscheck of the playlists selected in that tab, and the playlists showing up in the itunes sourcelist.
    is there any playlist selected in the preferences tab that isn't showing up in the sourcelist?
    love, b

  • Ipod consolidated all of my playlists into one

    While updating Ipod consolidated all of my playlists into one. And I thought if I got rid of the super playlist it would have to go back to the regular system. The library and all the other playlists are still intact but now it says, "Ipod cannot update becasue there are no songs in the playlist." But there are songs there and there are songs in the library as well. What's wrong? What happened? What did I do wrong?

    Open iTunes prefs -> iPod.
    it should be set to Auto update only selected playlists.
    Select the playlists you want to go onto the iPod.

    See this user tip.
    The iPod cannot be updated because one or more playlists no longer exist.
    For versions of iTunes from 7 onwards, the option to "update selected playlists" is now under the "music" tab in the summary screen.

  • "All of the Playlists Selected for Updating No Longer Exist"

    My family has 2 ipod shuffles. After purchasing a Nano recently, I inserted the cd that came with it. Apparently the existing iTunes software was removed and reinstalled. At any rate, the library still shows all the original songs, but when the Nano is plugged in, iTunes immediately gives a prompt stating "Songs on the iPod *** cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist." The library is there, the playlists that were there are there, and I can play the songs on my cpu. Is there anything I can do besides completely uninstalling everything and starting over?

  • "All of the playlists for updating no longer exist"???!!

    I created a few new playlists and deleted an old one in iTunes, and then when I plugged in my mini to update I get the message:
    Songs on the iPod “Kellee's iPod” cannot be updated because all of the playlists for updating no longer exist"
    There are no songs in my mini after this msg. I reset it, tried to update again, but got the same msg. Please help!!

    Hi Kellee!
    Why do people delete playlists?? Seems like you have the same problem someone I tried to help has. She got the exact same error message when she deleted a playlist. If I were you I would have shifted some songs around, changed the name of the playlist to something else but NOT deleted the playlist. I don't think you can get the same playlist back once you delete it. Question is why is your iPod not recognizing your new playlists and it's requesting to update the playlist you already deleted?? I'm afraid I can't help you but maybe someone else can. I just wanted to say this.
