Is it possible to remove ASMR 'audiobooks' from Daily Drive playlists?

Solved!

Is it possible to remove ASMR 'audiobooks' from Daily Drive playlists?

For some reason the Daily Drive playlist (which I appreciate is automatically generated) adds quiet ASMR tracks in the middle of music, which is VERY distracting, particularly while travelling.

The way ASMR is presented on Spotify is as an 'audiobook' broken into parts, so it makes even less sense to put it in: it'd be like having listened to a reading of a classic novel and putting in the second chapter only. Is it possible to block 'audiobook' format tracks from being added into these automatically generated playlists?

Hey @isonomy_,

 

Currently, it's not possible to remove/block the audiobooks from Daily Drive as this is automatically generated playlist.

 

On another note, it seems like the Community folks have already gathered on a similar feature request and have created an idea about customizing Daily Drive. If you'd like to see that option available, go ahead and check this idea here. Make sure you leave a +Vote to support it, so that it would have a better chance of being considered, as Spotify always strives to improve your experience.

 

Keep in mind that even if an idea is currently set to "Case Closed" you can still support it and we revisit those ideas on regular intervals. It might be that their time would be right in the future!

You'll also find all the relevant info about our Idea Exchange and how the Community feedback gets implemented here if you'd like to know more about the topic.
 

Cheers!
