“I’m new into Rekordbox and am desperately trying to find a way to use my Spotify library in Rekordbox. Do you have any suggestions to how this can be done?”
Rekordbox, the professional DJ software developed by Pioneer DJ, supports integration with a variety of streaming services, including SoundCloud, Beatport, Beatsource, and Tidal. Spotify is not on the list.
Spotify is one of the most popular music streaming services globally. It had a large user base and offered a vast library of music content. Many people, even professional DJs and music artists, usually want to use Spotify Music as their best source of mixing their playlists. Unfortunately Spotify can’t be connected to any DJ software anymore, except for Mixonset. Is there any alternative way to add Spotify Music to Rekordbox DJ for mixing? Here are 2 options:
Use a playlist transfer service or app to transfer your Spotify playlists to another service that is supported by Rekordbox, like Tidal. However, in this case, you need to pay for both the playlist transfer service and the new music streaming service. Rekordbox supported music streaming services include SoundCloud, Beatport, Beatsource and TIDAL, all of them requires paid subscriptions to integrate with Rekordbox.
Popular playlist transfer services include Soundiiz, tunemymusic, etc.
While TuneMyMusic and similar services can be convenient for transferring playlists between music streaming platforms, there are still some disadvantages and limitations. Here are some drawbacks you might encounter when using TuneMyMusic or similar services to transfer Spotify playlists to other music streaming services:
