Encouraging users to showcase their individuality, talent, creativity, and passion for music, Spotify has recently disclosed that they plan to enable a new tool within the platform that would allow fans to remix songs. It is no secret that Spotify has gained great popularity among music lovers for the past couple of years. With this new tool, it will be much more feasible for people to desire to be active on the platform, and play around with their own creativity. 

According to Consequence Sound, “As detailed in a new report by the Wall Street Journal, Spotify is currently looking at introducing new music-manipulating tools, including options to slow down, speed up, mash together, and “otherwise edit” songs. Once a user creates their modified track, they can share it to “virtual collections” on Spotify, but won’t be able to share it on any other platform.” With these new initiatives, it is evident that Spotify is continuing to upgrade their platform and find new initiatives and ways to capture the user’s attention, and to maintain their activity on the platform. 

Moreover, Consequence Sounds also describes how Spotify’s idea was influenced by the prominence of Tik Tok in today’s society. With seeing the popularity of Tik Tok, especially among the younger generation, Spotify gained new ideas and perspective in order to make their platform more appropriate for the needs and desires of users.
