Breaking Spotify

The Task

This Spotify playlist was created by structured randomization in an attempt to provide unique playlists that are completely random, a feature that Spotify does not offer.

The following steps were upheld:

1.Generate 30 random words using an online word generator

2.Type in the word into Spotify

3.Generate a random number between

1-20 with an online random number generator

4.Choose whichever song the random number is and add to a playlist

This was repeated 50 times to create a full experience. This website maps the process of my creation in breaking the Spotify algorithm.
