Discovery level in personalized playlists

[eduluiz]

I would love to have a Discovery level option on Spotify.

Currently most of the songs on Daily Mixes or Autoplay are songs that I already liked. This is great but sometimes I am under the impression that the same songs are always shown to me and I wish to have the option to adjust the Discovery level, for example:

- High: high discovery would show more unknown songs that I could like, let's say around 70 percent of unknown songs and 30 percent liked ones.

- Normal: around 50% of liked/unknown songs.

- Low: this seem to be the current way Spotify works, showing around 70 or 80 percent of liked songs.

The new "Discovery level" option would influence Daily Mixes, Autoplay and Radio stations once defined by the user. The default option would be how things work today, but it would be very helpful give the users an option to define if they would like to discover more music.

I hope you may consider this idea and hopefully implement it soon.

I would like a station that randomly plays ALL songs (not just the popular songs) from artists that I select as my favorites  and POPULAR songs from artists similar to my favorite artists.  I do not want to hear the same songs over and over again like I currently do on Spotify stations.

Option to start a radio station on a song/album/artist AND be given only songs you have not already liked. When I start a radio station these days almost half of the songs are ones already on my library. I know that there are the discover playlists, but they are filled with music I have listened to previously/are already marked as liked. At this point I don’t expect the Spotify team to return to form after the noticiable reduction if quality in the service over the last year and change, but it would be nice add this quality a life feature to circumnavigate the poor algorithms currently being used.

Thanks for your comprehension!

I love this idea.  

I feel like the variety of suggested songs and playlists tends to generate the same stuff.

Additionally I love that you can block artists but really wish you could block a specific song and not just in a playlist.

Further I think they should block specific genres should you choose: for instance Christmas music burns my earholes. Yet spotify continued to recommend I listen to Christmas until mid January.

Often I look for new songs that I like by going on a song's radio, only to find there are many songs which I already have downloaded/saved in a playlist. 

It would be nice if there was a feature where you could filter these out of the playlist.
