This is pretty cool, love seeing cool stats after using a product like Spotify every day :)
Apparently, I'm an energetic eclectic, what about you?
P.S. That design 🔥 dem gradients 🌋
@adam_kelly@chrismessina some ML algorithm learned to classify everyone as "energetic eclectic" because it made the viewer feel good about themselves? 😄
Hello, Product Hunt! I'm Matt, a Creative Developer at GLOW, and I worked on the design & front-end of Spotify.me for our client Spotify for Brands.
To give some background on the project (and as some of you have already guessed ✅), our goal for the site is to showcase Spotify’s advertising platform, specifically how Spotify is able to understand people from how they stream. By logging in with your Spotify ID, you are able to get an idea of what your streaming says about you. We built this with the Spotify for Brands team and used their existing public API with some of their proprietary research to lift the fun and exciting insights that you see here. Spotify.me will officially launch globally in 8 languages this coming Monday.
@iamsebj yep, they're explaining to brands how they are segmenting users based on their listening habits here https://spotifyforbrands.com/us/... .
What I meant is that it's interesting (smart) how Spotify seems to be releasing something for its users in this page (and gets them engaged checking, discussing and sharing about their streaming habits), while it's actually releasing a product for brands.
Neat idea, but a bit concerned. I've been using Spotify for at least 7 years and my lifetime top song / artist are from the same artist – which I've never heard of or listened to. Makes me question the data a bit...
The information, about who and when I listen to Spotify, was clever and intriguing, the Spotify.me playlist they suggested was awful.
Also it noted I listed to 28% Soundtracks, 22% Scorecore and 18% Video Game music and said that I love upbeat music and like to dance to it. I don't, most my pop music is by artists that have upbeat songs, but I prefer their slow songs, so not sure where it's getting the information from. In fact, only 16% is Post-Teen Pop so really not sure about that.
Pros:
Generating information about how I listen is clever
Cons:
The playlist at the end was awful, like they didn't learn a thing and suggested strange selections
Hmmmm I'm also experiencing unlikely "Most Listened To" results. However, I have noticed Spotify significantly stepping up their game in the realm of suggesting and auto playlist creation. It's keeping me from Apple Music for sure. Amazing Spotify has been able to remain so dominant against some really heavy hitters.
Spotify.me is about not spending hours making playlists. Instead its listening to what you like and the algorithm developing one for you. It brings in music that you would not find on your own into your playlist to make your own sound.
Pros:
Playlist development using your listening profile. Thumbs up/ down feature enables listening to some cool music based on your own preference
Interesting marketing vehicle for their attempt to go after Muzak/Mood Media with Spotify offshoots SoundtrackYourBrand to play the music in store and SpotifyForBrands to fill that data out on the backside.
It was a little bit off, but all in all very cool. I wish there was a way to let them know where they were wrong to help their algorithms improve. Very happy they made this.
Have been waiting for something like this for a long time! I've been always looking forward to the end-of-year statistics email. Now I can always just check spotify.me.
Awesome product, thank you!
The design is delightful! And information is helpful for me :) Thank you, Spotify, I think you've created the greatest app. I'm using your service for a long time and not going to stop :)
That's a nice tool for data freaks like me.
Before to get a similar result, I was counting on Last.fm, scrobbling everything from Spotify there and using data visualization tool.
They say I stream like a Partier 🎉 Hell Yeah!
