Spotify and hertz?

Solved!

Spotify and hertz?

I see lots of music with different healing frequencies. Like the Solfeggio frequencies or the 432 Hertz music. How can this be? I read that ALL Spotify music is tuned to 440 Hertz. And that Spotify does not support different frequencies. So why is some music still labeled different Hertz?

Hey @Steelshoe,


Thanks for reaching out.

 

Spotify displays the content and metadata the way it is delivered to them 🙂 So if a song title includes "432 Hertz", for example, they'll show it as well.

Ok Thanks Maxim, but then its true that it is not actually 432 hertz right? But 440? 

Hey @Steelshoe,

 

I've just received some info on this:

 

All music on Spotify is tuned to 440, however some artists do indeed label their music as 432 (as you've already seen).

 

Spotify is working on preventing this from happening in the future. For now, you can any discrepancies through this support page. 🙂

 

Hope this helps!

Maxim Can you talk to the good people at Spotify and tell them we want 432 and NOT 440 hertz PLEASE!

Hey @Amilcious,

 

Feel free to submit your idea at https://community.spotify.com/t5/Ideas/ct-p/newideas 🙂

 

The more support it receives from other users, the more likely it is that Spotify will take a look at it and consider it.

They wouldn't have ever made it forced to be 440a if they didnt want to do that,, no amount of people will change that, im sure theyve been paid a hefty sum to keep it like this. They know its a dissonant tone and 741. They know. They would've changed this by know if they "didn't know"
