No road trip is complete without a perfectly chosen medley to accompany your drive. Spotify now offers a feature that will automatically generate a road trip playlist.
This is called Soundtrack your Ride, and you have to go to a web browser to get the generated playlist to get started; you can get it here.
Once you've logged into your Spotify account, you can specify the start and end points of your journey, or manually set the duration of the journey, so Spotify knows how many tracks to select.
Then you have to answer various questions about the road trip: who are you traveling with, what kind of music do you want to listen to, what kind of tempo are you looking for, etc. At the end, your playlist is generated.
press PLAY
With one click, you can listen to the playlist on the Spotify desktop client and of course open it on your phone as well. If you are a premium subscriber, you can save it for offline reading, ready for the long journey ahead.
The new playlist generator may not revolutionize your life, but it is another convenient feature that allows you to take advantage of all the listening history that Spotify has access to in your account.
Playlists have always been a priority for Spotify - you can get playlists based on your ancestry, for example, as well as daily updated playlists (with news and podcasts) ready for your work day. .
This is a way to convince users to choose Spotify on Apple Music and other streaming services, even if, of course, you can create your own playlist in a traditional way.
