New Spotify Playlists Turn the Nostalgia Up to 11 ~ Digital Library

Relive the sounds of summer (or last winter, spring, and fall) with Spotify’s new personalized playlists, designed to make you feel nostalgic.

On Repeat and Repeat Rewind encourage listeners to “sit back, relax, and fall in love with the songs you’ve played most all over again,” according to a blog announcement.

On Repeat

Keep track of what you’ve been playing most over the last 30 days.

(For me, that includes Elton John, Neil Diamond, ABBA, Stevie Wonder, Hugh Jackman, Emeli Sandé, and The Beach Boys. I’m a normal 30-something, I swear.)

The playlist auto-updates to present the most up-to-date account of your current favorite tunes—you know, the ones you’ve been playing on repeat and are unlikely to forget.

“It’s a great combination of all the music you love, no matter what artist or genre, so each time you tap play, it will sound a little different,” the streaming service said.

Repeat Rewind

Sick of hearing the same Shawn Mendes-and-Camila Cabello collab for the seven-millionth time? Rediscover songs you once loved with Repeat Rewind, which includes tracks you played more than a month ago.

“Whether you’re constantly discovering something new or a purveyor of the classics, sometimes it feels good to just kick back with the familiar,” Spotify wrote in its blog.

(Ahh, a friendly reminder of that Hercules soundtrack phase I recently went through…)

Updated every five days, the song selection may span artists, moods, and genres.

Don’t worry about music overload, though: Spotify promised that tracks will never appear on both playlists at the same time.

Available globally for free and premium users, the new features can be found in the Made For You Hub, as well as the “Uniquely Yours” shelf on the home screen.

Spotify for Artists also got an update, boasting a refreshed design, new “home” tab with access to resources and updates about milestones, and expanded real-time stats for new releases.

Verified users can download the iOS or Android app now.
