Mix Your Favorite Playlists Seamlessly by Adding Your Own Transitions

Spotify users around the world have soundtracked their everyday moments by creating nearly 9 billion playlists. Now, Premium users can take their creativity to the next level with the ability to add and customize transitions between tracks.

The feature, now in beta, gives users even more control-allowing music lovers and playlist experts alike to easily create unique playlists. Seamlessly transition between tracks, customize how they flow together, and enhance your mix with features like volume, EQ, and effect curves.

Ready to mix things up? Make your playlist your own with seamless transitions.

Open a playlist you've already created, or make a new one.

Select Mix from the toolbar and see your playlist change.

Start with Auto for an instant blend, or tap to customize your mix and create unique transitions that fit your style.

When customizing, choose a preset like Fade or Rise to easily apply different transition styles.

Experiment with specific settings for volume, EQ, and effects, and use the waveform and beat data to find the best spot in each track for your transition.

Hit Save, then listen to your unique playlist. Share it, or even collaborate on a mixed playlist with friends who are also Premium users.

You can toggle the mix on and off at any time by pressing the Mix button.

New to audio mixing? These simple tips will help you level up your playlist.

Match tempos and keys: For the most natural-sounding transitions, choose songs with similar tempos and Camelot keys. When you tap Mix, we'll automatically show the key and BPM (beats per minute) for each track, so you can easily scan and reorder to help your playlist flow more smoothly.

Start with transition-friendly genres: Mixing works best with music produced for seamless transitions. Dance genres like house and techno tend to blend more smoothly.

Consider the energy: Think about the mood and energy you want your playlist to have. Plan your song order to gradually build up or wind down the energy, guiding listeners through an emotional journey.

Tap into your best playlists: Mixing is perfect for moments when you want to avoid awkward pauses. For example, upgrade your running playlist for consistent BPMs to set your pace, or curate the ideal road trip or party playlist to keep the vibe going.

Visualize it: Make your playlist even more unique by creating your own cover art with new stickers and labels, available only for mixed playlists.

Spotify Premium is the ultimate destination for fans to enjoy the music they love, and we're always evolving to make it even better. With custom transitions in playlists, we hope to empower users to shape their listening experience and express themselves through the music they love.

This new feature is rolling out to eligible Premium users, so please make sure your Spotify app is up to date.
