This year, you grew and transformed, and your musical journey reflects this evolution. Did you start the year with some Pink Pilates Princess Strut Pop and transition to a Surf Crush Beach Reggae phase in August? Were you all about Wild West Slow Dance Country before moving into your Sweater Weather Softcore Indie era?
Whatever your journey looked like, 2024 Wrapped is celebrating Your Music Evolution, revealing the musical phases that uniquely defined your year. Users will receive up to three distinctive musical phases, which are based on hundreds of thousands of unique descriptors, genres, and artists.
Each phase features artists drawn from your listening this year, and each has a uniquely crafted title to capture the essence of that phase.
How Spotify picked the phases of Your Music Evolution
Several special factors went into creating Your Music Evolution, including the amount of time you spent listening to an artist or genre, peak listening months, and distinctiveness, which means spotlighting a genre that stood out from your usual listening patterns.
- Spotify combined machine learning with human curation to associate descriptors and genres with different tracks. These descriptors then informed your musical phases.
- While the Your Music Evolution data story may not encompass every musical moment of your year, it aims to reflect some of the most significant ones, revealing your unique journey and evoking 2024 memories through music.
- To be eligible for Your Music Evolution, you will need to have streamed at least three tracks and one artist per music category over the course of the year.
In addition to Your Music Evolution, you will also receive a custom Your Music Evolution 2024 playlist in your Wrapped feed on Home. The playlist includes familiar favorites along with new songs that we think you’ll love, related to your unique musical phases.
Each year, Spotify Wrapped celebrates the millions of ways our fans show up for the artists they love, and with Your Music Evolution, we’re offering an exciting new way to relive your biggest moments of the year.
