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.

Why are people allowed to vote closed threads in the first place?

Hi there, 

I completely agree with eduluiz. Recently (2 months), my autoplay still choose the same songs (those I like and perfectly know), and even in same order. 

I am considering stop using the autoplay because of that.

Please, make some changes 🙂

Thanks a lot, 

Ondrej

When I am looking for new songs, a technique I like to use is create a small playlist of the most recent songs that I like and create a playlist radio off of it. However, the radio station created tends to be filled up with songs that I have already heard and very few new songs are pitched into the mix. Creating an option, either when creating the radio or on the radio screen itself, to show only songs that have not been liked or are not within the playlist that the radio was created off of would help find new music a lot easier. I have seen this idea pitched in the forums multiple times but has never gained enough traction. Please consider adding this!
