The music streaming firm has rolled out DJ requests, an interactive version of its AI DJ feature, and it&#8217;s live in over 60 markets globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spotify explains that this latest update is due to more individuals wanting control and to engage more while listening. Now, rather than merely listening to an AI-curated playlist, listeners can alter the mood during playback, requesting anything from a certain artist or genre to songs that fit their mood or activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted has-ast-global-color-5-color has-ast-global-color-3-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color

works is simple: open AI DJ on mobile, press and hold the DJ button, wait for the beep, then say your request.<br><br>The feature is Premium-only and is rolling out across 60+ markets, so availability may vary by region.<br><br>Current limitations include no typing, voice commands working best for moods\/styles (not exact songs), and voice requests limited to English.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<div

class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Spotify_AI_DJ\"><\/span>What Is Spotify AI DJ?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The AI DJ creates music according to the user\u2019s personal preferences. It will go through your playlist to find your listening preferences and even your music habits, like the type of genres you prefer listening to. Like a conventional radio DJ, it provides commentary at the beginning of tracks, providing details about the artists and song selections. This feature&#8217;s voice is based on Xavier &#8220;X&#8221; Jernigan, who used to host Spotify&#8217;s morning show &#8220;The Get Up,&#8221; giving it a recognizable and interesting presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"This_New_Feature_Lets_Spotifys_AI_DJ_Listen_to_You\"><\/span>This New Feature Lets Spotify\u2019s AI DJ Listen to You<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Spotify has recently released an exciting update. You now have more control over what you hear during your sessions. This has been possible due to the DJ&#8217;s ability to accept voice requests, which was announced via the Spotify Newsroom. Powered by advanced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guideofaitool.com\/en\/category\/ai-voice-tools\">AI voice <\/a>technology, this feature offers a novel approach to instantly customize your listening experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now specify to the DJ exactly what you want, be it a particular genre, mood, artist, or even music for a particular activity, as opposed to simply skipping tracks. Consider the following: &#8220;Play some indie rock that I might like&#8221; or &#8220;Play some jazz for a party night.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, the only way to change the track if you weren&#8217;t feeling it was to tap the DJ button. You can now take charge of the session without sacrificing the enjoyment of discovering new music. The DJ feature has always been quite appealing to most of us. It is distinct. It&#8217;s kind of addictive to hear the DJ describe listening habits because it monitors my Spotify statistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, only Premium users in 60 regions can access it. You won&#8217;t see the option if you are not a part of these countries or on a free plan. This update is still rolling out, so even if you have DJ, it might not be live for you yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Use_Spotify_AI_DJ\"><\/span>How to Use Spotify AI DJ?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is how it operates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Turn on Spotify&#8217;s AI DJ mode on your phone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hold down the DJ button located in the lower-right corner of your screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Await the beep, which indicates that the AI is prepared.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then request what you want.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limitations_Of_Spotify_AI_DJ\"><\/span>Limitations Of Spotify AI DJ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some limitations of this new feature:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"No_option_to_type\"><\/span>No option to type<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can only communicate through voice. These requests cannot be typed.

Manual searching is still quicker and more accurate if you&#8217;re looking for a specific song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Only_Available_In_English\"><\/span>Only Available In English<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the moment, the feature can only process English.
