Spotify’s Instagram integrations are more than just tech updates—they’re a dynamic stage for musicians to connect, share, and be discovered in real time.

Spotify has rolled out a “Mix” feature—currently in beta—that gives Premium users the power to craft custom transitions between tracks. Think of it as putting a mini mixing console right inside your playlist. You can either let Spotify do the blending automatically, or dive in with full creative control—choose presets like Fade, Rise, or Blend, then tweak volume, EQ, and audio effects to sculpt that perfect transition. Waveform and beat-matching visuals guide you to the sweet spot in each track. It’s an invitation to DJ your own listening experience.
