If you are like me, you spent a lot of time creating playlists for different occasions. Studying, going to the gym, throwing a house party, they all require different playlists with different moods. Playlistable offers a quicker way to do this using generative AI. You can give a short description and a genre, and Playlistable will generate a playlist for you. You can even connect it to your Spotify account, and then it can gain insight into your listening history, and you can instantly add the playlist to your account. I tried to generate two different types of playlists.
First, I used the prompt “studying for a long time for an important test”, with “electronic” as the genre. I think the ai got a little bit confused, because the start of the playlist was comprised of songs I added recently, but in my opinion do not really fit my description. But after 20 or so songs the playlist is comprised of songs the match the description I gave very well. I did not know a lot of the songs, but after listening to it for a while, I actually like that part of the playlist a lot.
My second prompt was “revisiting old classics” with “Rock”. This prompt worked out better than the first one. It looks like it consists entirely of classic Rock songs. Some of these I have little to a lot, others I have never heard before, so I think it mixed my listening history with other similar songs. I will share the link to this playlist here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3UH1B7kE21aElDQkDsVVbV?si=750c06a4b5014748
I think this is a very useful tool. You can quickly generate playlists with just a short description and start using them immediately. It is a shame you only get a few trial playlists before you must start paying.
