Algoriddim’s Audio blend software Djay has become one of the most popular digital music mixing tools, but so far it lacks a thing that users have wanted: Spotify Integration. However, that is changing with the company announcing that it is rolling support for Spotify Premium users in the Djay app on Mac and Windows.
For the first time, music fans and budding DJs will be able to access their own Spotify library as well as playlists made by Spotify to create their own mixed sets. Although Spotify -Integration is not yet available on Android and iOS devices, DJA’s mobile app supports Apple Music and Tidal.
In his message, Algoriddim shares that “with just a login, Spotify Premium subscribers can instantly browse and mix millions of songs through Djay”. From there, users can express their creativity as freely as they want.
“From curating the perfect home party set to explore new music, users can effortlessly pull and drop tracks in DJay’s tires, create trouble-free transitions across genres with intelligent beat-matching, play using built-in DJ tools or connect their preferred DJ-hardware to tactile control,” the company adds.
Once you have logged in, Djay has several music mixing features that you can experiment with, from its catalog of effects and loops, to its beat-matching skills together that you can access via its user-friendly interface, so it’s easy to mix if you’re a DJ Newbie.
The new integration with Spotify is a big step for Djay, offering a wider and far more accessible music source to its users, rather than having to go through the hassle of downloading songs from elsewhere. With that said, Spotify has not long launched his own mix tool in the app.
A threat to Spotify Mix?
Apple Music was the first music streaming service to introduce sound mixing with his Automix tool that fans are still excited about. Hot on his heels, Spotify introduced Mix, a similar music mixing feature, though Spotify’s version gives you much more control so you can mix your own playlists. For me, the latter is the better DJ feature – but I can see how Djay’s Suite with tools could surpass Spotify’s own.
Although Spotify Mix wins on the creative control front compared to Apple Music, the advanced features such as track loop and effects you can use in Djay. Add it to Djay’s new support to Spotify, and users get the best of both worlds; Pleat DJ features and a music library that is more accessible than before. However, I don’t think Spotify Mix will be pushed out of the limelight so soon after launch, and that’s thanks to its daily user appeal.
When it comes to Djay, its Spotify integration is only available to Mac and Windows – so far. And if and when it comes to Djay’s Android and iOS versions, I imagine Spotify users would still go to its in-app mix feature, not only because it is there by pressing a button in an app they use daily, but because the playlist mix of news is there-as Djay has not.
I know I don’t want to flick between two different apps when I have the basic features that I want right there in my Spotify account, but I respect the fact that Djay is the more advanced software. Adding integration with the world’s most popular music flow platform is undeniably a smart feature on the part of the DJA, and one that could see an influx of new users.
