Spotify isn’t currently integrated with much DJ software or hardware beyond Djay, which worked out its official partnership with the platform back in 2014. The two streaming services that appear to be the most amenable to these kinds of partnerships are Tidal and SoundCloud. SoundCloud integrated with Serato DJ back in 2018, Pioneer DJ released a beginner controller last year for streaming music and smartphone DJing, and Denon’s Prime 4 standalone player and its SC5000 and SC5000M media players have Wi-Fi and Tidal integration. Now, the trend has been on the rise with other DJ software and even hardware in recent years. You can still use the app to DJ with Tidal and SoundCloud, and the post provides tools for people to transfer their Spotify playlists and tracks over to these other services.Īlgoriddim integrated streaming with its DJ app long before many other companies. This is a big loss for Djay, which was the most robust DJ app on the market to have Spotify streaming integration. In the meantime, we’ve introduced new streaming services that will enable you to continue mixing all of the great music you love, plus give you extended access to new content and features.” “You’ll still be able to use Spotify in Djay until the end of June 2020. “As of JSpotify will no longer be playable through 3rd party DJ apps,” reads Algoriddim’s announcement. A Spotify representative confirmed the news to The Verge. The news was posted by Algoriddim, the developer behind a popular DJ software for iOS called Djay.
Spotify will no longer work with third-party DJ apps starting on July 1st, 2020.
