Spotify is rolling out updated controls for Release Radar, its weekly playlist of newly discovered music. According to multiple outlets, Spotify is introducing session-level options that let listeners fine-tune what appears in the playlist before playback each week. The new filters allow users to narrow recommendations by selecting a specific music genre, focusing on artists the listener hasn’t heard before, and choosing from Spotify’s editorial picks. One source notes that users can choose from up to five options, which can be applied to shape the playlist’s content for that listening session. The updates are described as being released globally, indicating the feature is available broadly rather than restricted to certain regions. Spotify positions Release Radar as a widely used weekly destination, and the added controls aim to give listeners more direct influence over how recommendations are curated for them. The changes arrive alongside Spotify’s continued efforts to make discovery features more adjustable while keeping Release Radar’s core weekly format intact.
