Spotify has just announced a brand new feature that is sure to delight music lovers everywhere. The Playlist in a Bottle feature allows users to create a time capsule of the songs they are currently listening to, and then re-open it a year later for a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
This fun and interactive feature is available to both free and Premium users of Spotify. To create your own playlist in a bottle, simply visit spotify.com/playlistinabottle from a mobile device. Once there, you will be prompted to pick a container for your songs – options include a bottle, a jean pocket, gumball machine, lunch box or teddy bear.
After selecting your container, you will be prompted to add songs to your playlist based on different themes. For example, you may be asked to pick a song that reminds you of your favourite person, or a song you need to hear live this year. These prompts help to determine what goes into your bottle, and ensure that your playlist is a true reflection of your current musical tastes.
Once your playlist is complete, it will be sealed away until 2024, when you can re-open your bottle and relive this moment in time. The songs you’ve selected will serve as the soundtrack to your memories, and remind you of where you were and what you were listening to a year ago.
“This is such a fun feature that allows our listeners to pause and preserve this moment in time, and look back at it again in a year to see where they were, what they were listening to and hear the soundtrack to their musical memories,” says Jocelyne Muhutu-Remy, Spotify’s Managing Director for Sub-Saharan Africa.
It’s worth noting that the Playlist in a Bottle feature is only available until January 31st, 2023, so be sure to make your selections before then. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to capture the musical essence of 2023 and re-live it in 2024.
Overall, Spotify’s Playlist in a Bottle feature is a great way to preserve memories and reflect on how our taste in music changes over time. It’s a fun, interactive way to think about the music that has soundtracked our life in the past year and it will be exciting to see how our tastes have changed a year later. So, don’t miss out on this opportunity to create your own Playlist in a Bottle and preserve the soundtrack of your life.
