With the new Spotify playlist mix tool, you can control how songs transition, change the EQ, adjust the volume between tracks, and even make them flow seamlessly like an actual DJ set. Basically, playlists aren’t just playlists anymore. They’re mixes.

Spotify's latest feature drop is for aspiring DJs: you can now add and customize transitions between tracks on your playlists. "Mix," which is in beta, lets users blend songs on playlists they've created to minimize awkward pauses or simply get creative with the flow from song to song.

What’s more, although automatic playlist mixing is new in Spotify itself, something similar was available via a third-party app - Serato’s much-missed Pyro - as long ago as 2016. However, Spotify pulled compatibility with this and all other Djing software that it had partnerships with (Algoriddim’s djay, for example) in 2020.
