Finding similar artists

[kent_o]

The other day I played a song by a particular artist (Greg Laswell). After the song finished playing Spotify continued playing songs by similar artists. It was great! I added a bunch of songs to "My Library" so I can go back and listen to them later. But now I want to do that again to discover more artists. I tried playing the Greg Laswell song again but Spotify just plays it once and stops. If I play a song from my library then Spotify continues playing all the songs in my library. That's great but how do I get Spotify to find more songs similar to a certain song?

Hi there!

If you select the three dots on the upper-right corner of smart phone screen (or next to track name on desktop), you can select 'Go to radio'. This will start a kind of radio station where an algorithm selects songs from similar artists/genres that have a similar flavour to the song you're listening to.

Hope this helps!

On the desktop app you can also right-click on any song and there is a "Go to song radio" option.

This curates a playlist of songs similar to the one you right-clicked on.
