Popular streaming service Spotify is testing out new Tik Tok-like features that will allow users to remix songs from their favourite artists, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal. The report states that early discussion about the tool are underway and licensing agreements will have to be worked out. Moreover, Spotify may also allow access to this tool only to users to pay for the new “Music Pro” premium plan.

Meanwhile, a TechCrunch report while citing app researcher Chris Messina also corroborated the news that Spotify is indeed working on new features that will allow users to remix their favourite songs right from the streaming service. 

The TechCrunch report while referencing screenshots of Spotify app’s code notes that the streaming service may be working on various features including a “Playlist Tuner” and a feature that would allow users to “Flex their DJ skills with different transition styles to create the ultimate mix”. Yet another tool could allow users to set the “tempo range” and “vibe” for their mix by letting them filter the songs by genres, moods, activities and more things. 

Furthermore, the code also suggests that users could be able to create mixes for a certain scenarios like creating a sped-up version of a song during house parties or while working out. The mixing tool could also be used for qucikly bending in the next track to “keep the energy going”.

Moreover, Spotify could also target the tool for users who haven’t experice mixing songs in the past with features that “automatically reorders your mix by sequencing tracks with a similar key, tempo, and style together” and “choose how to order your mix, or select auto order to have Spotify sequence it for you”.

Why is there a need for Spotify’s remixing tool?

Notably, there has been a rise in the use of altered and sped-up songs on social media apps like Instagram and Tik Tok which while garnering millions of views don’t lead to any revenue generation for the artists. Artists and music labels are also shifting to releasing their officially sped-up versions of the same track in order to dissuade users from listening to the altered tracks. 

In theory, with Spotify’s latest feature artists could finally be paid for their songs while users get to alter their favourite songs as per their preferences and in a more seamless manner.
