Users will be able to access their entire libraries and playlists within these programs, making it faster and easier to create sets from playlists and blend tracks.

It’s a seamless way to take creative control and make every set uniquely yours.”

Wednesday’s announcement is the latest in a long list of new features for the streaming service. Spotify recently launched support for lossless music streaming, the ability for free users to select and play songs, new “smart filters,” in-app messaging, and more.
