Spotify Playlist in a Bottle gives you your very own 2024 mixtape – and listeners say it’s ‘better than Wrapped’
SPOTIFY users can finally unlock their Playlist in a Bottle – 12 months after they built it.
The musical time capsule gives listeners the chance to select songs they love in January, and seal them away until a year later.
“The interactive in-app experience is the perfect time capsule to remember and reflect on the music you loved and how your taste may have evolved over the past 365 days,” Spotify wrote in a blog post.
“If you’re one of the Spotify listeners who participated in January 2024, today is the day to unlock your “Playlist in a Bottle” from last year.”
Spotify introduced the hit-feature in 2023.
Each playlist is built by asking users a series of questions, such as: “A song you’d play for aliens if they visited Earth,” “A song you need to hear live in 2024” and “A song you’re going to kiss someone to this year.”.
The songs in answer to these questions are what form the capsule mixtape.
Users can even write a little message to their future selves.
“I just opened the Spotify Playlist in a Bottle feature and it made me laugh, cry, and smile. 10/10 feature,” one user wrote on X.
Another added: “I don’t remember doing this but my Spotify Playlist in a Bottle from 2024 was spot on either way.”
The feature managed to steal users’ hearts far more than the highly anticipated Wrapped—a roundup of listeners’ top songs, albums, and genres.
Although Spotify was accused of producing a “lazy” Wrapped theme last year, leaving many users disappointed.
“Spotify Playlist in a Bottle is [so much] better than Wrapped lmaoo,” a third user wrote.
A fourth user said: “The way Spotify’s Playlist in a Bottle ate up their whole Wrapped…”
A fifth added: “I just got my Playlist in a Bottle! I like this feature a lot more than Spotify Wrapped. It feels a lot more interactive!”
