SongDNA is built directly into the Now Playing screen on the Spotify app. The idea is to help users dive deeper into the tracks they love by creating a map of information with a single tap. However, this isn’t just static info. SongDNA is designed as an interactive discovery tool.
You can tap on any contributor to explore other artists they’ve worked with, then keep branching out from there to find related tracks, covers, interpolations, and more.
Spotify says SongDNA is powered by a mix of artist-provided data and community contributions. Artists and labels can also manage how their work appears through Spotify for Artists.
To use SongDNA, you need to:
- Open the Now Playing view while listening to a track.
- Scroll down to find the SongDNA card on supported tracks.
- Tap to see the song’s collaborators, samples, interpolations, covers, and more.
Spotify is positioning SongDNA as a companion to its existing “About the Song” feature. While it focuses on storytelling, SongDNA is all about exploration, turning each track into what Spotify describes as an “immersive experience.”
SongDNA is currently in beta and is rolling out to Spotify Premium users on Android and iOS. A broader rollout will continue through April.
