Conversation: Spotify spotted working on a ‘SongDNA’ feature that showcases the people behind your favorite music Crunch
A: Hey John, what's up? Got any fun news to share?
B: Not really, why do you ask?
A: Well, I just found out that Spotify is working on this cool new feature! It's called SongDNA. Instead of discovering songs through the music itself, you can find them by checking out the people who worked on them!
B: Whoa, that sounds interesting! How does it work?
A: From what I understand, you can navigate through the credits to see who did what, and even check out other tracks they've worked on. For example, this artist named Rei Ami from "KPop Demon Hunters" is featured in more songs than just those from the movie!
B: That's amazing! I wonder if it could challenge TIDAL's interactive credits.
A: Yeah, that's what some people are saying. It could be useful for music pros looking for collaborators, and for anyone who wants to learn more about the folks behind the scenes in music creation.
B: But I heard they removed references to it from their app... is it still happening?
A: That's true! After someone found SongDNA in their code, Spotify updated their app to remove those references. They didn't really say anything about it, though. But another technologist was able to confirm its existence by digging deeper into the app's code.
B: So, it might still happen? Let's hope so! It sounds like a great idea.
A: Definitely! I can't wait to see how it turns out if they do release it. It'd be different from Pandora's Music Genome Project, which classifies tracks based on their traits. SongDNA seems more about the people behind the music.
B: Yeah, that does sound cool. Let's keep an eye on it!
