- Spotify has launched its new Your Party of the Year(s) mobile experience to celebrate its 20th anniversary
- It shows you data from across your entire Spotify journey, starting from the first day you joined
- This includes your most-streamed artist, the total number of streamed songs, and more
A few weeks back Spotify commemorated its 20th year of being one of the best music streaming services (I know, I can’t wrap my head around it either), but if you thought the platform was done with the celebrations you’d be wrong — it’s just launched the ultimate Wrapped experience.
Ever wanted to know the deep stats from your entire Spotify lifespan? With the new Spotify 20: Your Party of the Year(s) experience, you can.
Launching today (May 12), the new mobile app walk-through gives you a personal insight to your music listening history in Spotify, which includes exclusive data that encompasses your entire music journey from the moment you joined Spotify right up to today. In Spotify’s words, it’s “designed as a personalized time capsule, the experience captures the moments that defined listeners' music journeys, and celebrates the artists and fans who have shaped Spotify and music culture over the past 20 years”.
Although you can use Prompted Playlists to view stats such as your most listened-to songs of a specific year, this experience takes it a step further.
Behind a gold wax seal sits a nostalgic look-back at your first listens and biggest hits, starting with the exact date you joined Spotify which, if you’ve been using it for quite some time, will reveal a little too much about your age. From there, the walkthrough will show you the total number of songs you’ve streamed from your days as a Spotify baby to your days as a power-user — and Spotify compiles your top 120 songs into a playlist with play counts that you can save to your Library as a keepsake.
To top it all off, Spotify reveals the answer to one of your burning questions: who is my most-streamed artist of all time? But not only does it tell you this, it also reveals how many minutes you’ve spent listening to them since you first hit the play button, as well as the very first song that kick-started your Spotify journey.
You can begin your look-back of your listening life by searching for ‘Spotify 20’ or ‘Your Party of the Year(s)’ in the search tab, so it’s very easy to find.
However, this isn’t the first of Spotify’s anniversary celebrations. The streamer turned 20 a few months back, kicking things off at SXSW in March which was followed by a series of posts where it unveiled its most streamed artists, podcasts, and audiobooks of the last two decades.
We also got involved with the celebrations by recapping the platform’s landmark moments, and even sitting down with Sten Garmark, Spotify’s Global Head of Consumer Experience, who discussed how the company created an entirely new business model, in addition to its plans to expand to new formats and combat against AI-generated music.
