Musical exploration mode: Adventurous, Balanced or Familiar

[MaximusicExplorer]

When Spotify autoplays at the end of a playlist or when I play a song radio, I often find the songs not to my liking, because they are too often songs that I've heard dozens of time. Although I still have good surprises from time to time.

This is why I would love to see a new setting for a "Musical exploration mode", which would let us choose between 3 options:

- "Familiar": Stick to your comfort zone.
- "Balanced": A mix of familiar and new songs.
- "Adventurous": Discover new and exciting songs.

Or maybe these 2 options:

- "Standard": Enjoy a balanced mix of familiar and new songs.
- "Adventurous": Dive into new and exciting music discoveries.

Another idea:  enhance the user experience by adding a button similar to Smart-Shuffle, but instead of adding new songs it would exclude ones I've already heard. It would be fantastic to have this option for Radio and Mix Playlists (such as Your Niche, Mixtape, and Genre mixes) making our music discovery even more enjoyable.
