Spotify is one of today’s most popular music streaming services, whose goal is to unlock the potential of human creativity to help artists get discovered. But as the platform has grown, users have become frustrated with how increasingly algorithmic and impersonal music discovery has become. With this in mind, I created Spotify Listen– a feature that allows users to detect and save songs they hear in real life, and instantly receive more personalized song recommendations based on what was detected. It’s a more organic, interactive way to discover music beyond just another AI-generated playlist.
