The options in the old Spotify radio were great, especially the Timeline feature.

 

Would be cool to get it back!

Hello there :)

 

I just changed this idea status to "Not right now".

 

Our radio team has reviewed this idea and we are not planning to implement this right now. We may do this in the future since it is a very popular request and we really think is a good idea. So this is not a "case closed", we are just not going to get these radio features back now.

 

We will update this thread as soon as we get news on this matter.

 

Thank you all for your contribution, we really appreciate this. :)

This feature I miss. I know I am not the only one and it would be nice to see this feature come back.

Well, where is it?  Bring it back.

if i remember correctly, you used to be able to filter the radio by genre AND year.

i basically can't use the reggae radio station anymore because it just plays this modern gangster-reggae :(

 

so please could that be re-instated?

This idea is sort of replicated here - http://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Ideas-and-Feedback/Multiple-Genre-Radio/idi-p/223

 

Please feel free to add your vote to that one.

You are well aware of peoples concerns about the radio function, wont say anymore as you know it, my question is, when would next update be? - We are well through february and users have been waiting since you jinxed the radio function mid December...

How far in the process is this?

 

You have yourself another customer when this works.

 

To sum up:

- Genre mix!

Just to let everyone know ... the spotify preview client for Linux still has the multi-genre radio :-)

I really liked the old radio, and well, just don't like the new one.

 

Unless I'm being daft I cannot create a radio now including several genres and a timeframe like I used to - which was the main thing I liked about radio (and a big part of how I found new music).

 

Pretty disappointed with new radio which isn't really "radiolike" at all.

Please bring the multiple genre selections back.   Sorely missed!

I've merged these two similar topics to consolidate the voters.

Do bring this feature back. I, and several others I know have canceled accounts because this feature is such a big deal. It would be fine, if you allowed users to run the older clients, but you've managed to kill that off as well, so it's impossible to get this functionality (unless you're on Linux). Thus, the cancellations. 

 

Bring it back, and you'll get more subs. It was an awesome feature that no other service had, or has!
