On Tuesday, Spotify announced a new feature called Blend. It has been in beta testing since June, but is now rolling out globally to all free and premium users. Blend’s primary function is to create a collaborative playlist between two friends instantly. It analyzes each person’s musical tastes based on the music they stream the most. It then makes a list combining the two preferences.
Sometimes you will share many musical tastes with a friend, and other times not so much. For this reason, developers added another feature to Blend before it exited beta. With the newly created playlist open, users can tap a button at the top of the list to view their compatibility score and “the song that brings” them together (below).
