Spotify Party delivers a party playlist to fit any dance atmosphere

So the music never has to stop and there will never be any of those awkward pauses while your bad self is getting down to the latest bangers. Spotify also worked with Diplo to create an exclusive 120-song playlist for its users. There is an adjustable mood slider, which you can tweak to tailor the playlist to help it better match the mood of your party.

2015 has been an ambitious year for Spotify, in the face of competition from Apple Music and Tidal they have saved face with an assortment of great new features.

And how does Spotify Party act as your virtual DJ? Plus, with our new Play Queue, you can easily add, remove and rearrange songs – without ever having to interrupt the music. Spotify Party is the closest alternative to a DJ a computer could possibly offer.

Spotify, like all other streaming music services, is attempting to use features like Party to add a more human element to its services.

Spotify Party started rolling out today to iOS and Android users.

“When it comes to throwing parties you simply have to have the right playlists – or everyone will leave”, Diplo said in a press release.

Good news, holiday party planners: You can check one thing off your to-do list, because Spotify has the music covered. However for the most part, most playlists just contain individual songs meaning that if you wanted to create a party-like atmosphere in your home or during the BBQ that you might experience at a club, your options become less.

Features like Party are also very useful for music discovery, especially for people who don’t have the time or energy to search for new music themselves.
