Release Radar - only 30 tracks max

simoncopyright — Tue, 06 Aug 2024 10:54:47 GMT

Hi,
I used to have between 100-200 tracks every friday on release radar, this week I only got 30.

It seems it's the 'default' number when you don't follow lots of artists (which is not my case, I follow almost 2000 artists)

How can I get back to getting all the new releases ?
Thank you !

Complained on Reddit about the same issue. I relied heavily on a large and up to date list to stay on top of new releases. I follow thousands of artists. This playlist is a major highlight of my week. I really hope this isn't an intentional and permanent change.

Happened to me as well when checking Release Radar today, last Friday it still had the usual 200 tracks. All classical music is missing now which was a large part of it.

Having the same problem. And it seems my list is getting shorter and randomly change my downloaded release radar to tracks not downloaded.

seems like a bug in the app because if you try the web browser player, you will see 200 songs there.

Right, the web player still has 200 tracks from last Friday, but the desktop app Spotify for Windows (64 bit)
1.2.42.290 only has 30 tracks from that old playlist, it seems.

same issue for me, the full list is only appearing in the web player.

Spotify please address this, as I have stated several times around the internet this playlist is the only reason I still have a subscription.

This is a huge problem Spotify, especially for your subscribers, so perhaps one of us should get in contact with a member of the Tech Press and have somebody like The Verge and C-NET give wide coverage to the issue and why you ignore your paying customers.

Its honestly embarrassing. Why am I paying for this service if the only thing they provide is a very slow cloud. Like there is no user friendly interface or any useful advantages that come with Spotify. The Release Radar is literally the bare minimum they could do and its not even consistent.

you guys should try Burner to handle your release radar, that’s what i’ve had to switch to

Re: Release Radar - only 30 tracks max

huggeebear — Fri, 09 Aug 2024 02:23:01 GMT

All well and good, but the core applications - desktop and phone - should work as expected without having to go to 3rd parties.

Also restricted to 30 songs. I usually have 200 with about half of them being this week's releases. Feeling lost.

Currently the web player still shows 200 tracks also for the new playlist from today.
