Algoriddim's award-winning djay apps for Mac and Windows are getting an update today, bringing Spotify integration to the popular DJ software. Subscribers to Spotify Premium can now access Spotify's entire music catalog from within the djay app, including their own libraries and playlists as well as Spotify's curated editorial playlists.

Spotify integration is available in 51 markets around the world and works with djay's Automix feature that intelligently transitions between tracks with beat-matching for seamless transitions across genres.

Djay has been one of several DJ apps supporting Apple Music, but Spotify integration taps into a significantly larger user base who can now bring all of their existing music content right into djay.

Algoriddim's djay app is a free download from the Mac App Store and the Microsoft Store, with an optional Pro subscription priced at $6.99 per month or $49.99 per year to unlock all features.

Available in Serato too it seems.

Torn on streaming in DJ apps. Lots of small producers struggling to make any money have been seeing a little income at least from DJs buying their mp3s. Now that’s drying up too.
 
Didn’t Spotify used to do this ages ago and then they pulled it? Has them going with Apple forced them back?
Strange.
Yes they had for maybe 5-6 years ago that’s why I bought this app in the first time. Then they r moved this and had only tidal instead.
So the correct title would be:


Algoriddim’s djay App Pretends Spotify Integration Is New After Betraying Users and Ripping It Away Years Ago
 
Support was originally pulled because Spotify can’t be used for commercial purposes, and DJing is typically a commercial activity.

This is the reason why most DJing apps don’t integrate with consumer streaming services.

Has Spotify relaxed the rules on this, or is it strictly for ‘personal’ DJing only?
 
It's back likely because Spotify have added their "Mix" capabilities in app.

I loved Djay for its Spotify integration, and hated it when it left. I can ditch Tidal now if the bitrates are good enough (and this is what they want)

Hopefully we see the tide turn and Rekordbox gets a look in too.
