[Music] Custom Start & Ending Times for a Track

[krth8]

Hi.

I'm a big electronic music lover and there is only one feature i would like added to spotify. The option to choose a part of the track i would like to play and have the settings saved.

In the world of electronic music there is almost allways 2-3 minute build ups, and not many radio mixes of each track.

This can be a problem when having a party and a track lasts for 7 minutes with 3 of them is a buildup that not everyone would like to listen to.

It would be nice to have a feature like this that i can change on each track, just drag 2 buttons to a start and end point. and maybe have a 3-5 second fade on where i choose to set them.

Made a quick illustration on what i mean.

This is exactly what I need, I really like the first 50 seconds of a track and find myself skipping every time after the first 50 seconds have passed (Bratva - Slaughter to prevail, Just after the roof 😂).

Time stamp for start and end of section to repeat instead of a whole song

So I was just reading comments, this is a request that has been made since 2010, and since that time people have said that Itunes already have this feature, and your answer has been "Not Right Now" but lets vote for this ? Really ? This request is 14 years old, just say to people that it cannot happen, POINT, instead of saying we are working on it.

100 agreed.
This is ridiculous.

I would love the option to listen only to a specific part of a song. 

For an example I place an "A" at 1 min and a "B" at 1:30 min so I only listen to this 30 seconds and after that 30 seconds the loop starts at the 1 min marker.

This feature will take the app to a different level of music play experience. 

Normally in parties you want to listen as many songs as possible without getting tired of the same tune.

I remember Winamp had this feature and it worked amazing for parties and friends meetings.

I hope Spotify adds it soon....Apple has Mixonset app which seems to work this way but nothing for Android users.

I'll keep waiting....

I’ve been waiting for 3 years now. Spotify what’s the hold up? Why do you
not want to implement this feature which seems to be simple given the fact
you already know hope to cross fade. Is it not a good ROI for your product
? It would be for so many users and will increase stickiness of your app.
Can you consider adding this feature?

Have you ever wanted to start a song from a certain time stamp in the song. Let’s say you hate the beginning of a song or there’s a very slow and boring intro in the song. Using this feature, you would be able to pick a time stamp you would want the song to begin from, and every time you play the song it would start from that time. If you would like this feature added like me, please vote for it!

I have an idea for a new feature: trimming songs in playlists. Users could click a trim icon and use two sliders to select the start and end of a song or video. This would allow for more personalized and customizable playlists. This can be also used for songs with an intro or a beat switch to only have the second part in your playlist.

Example:
Travis Scott - Sicko Mode (Some people only like the second part)
Chief Keef - Love Sosa (There is an intro to the song you always have to listen to)
