Your way to the daily mixes

Use the platform like a regular listener.

If you are a newbie, it's good to understand the platform's basics from a different prism. Keep in mind that Spotify will favour you if you start using the platform as a regular user. Create playlists, like tracks and try to listen to your favourite tracks from your playlists from time to time. It sends a signal to Spotify that you are a regular user of the platform, and you try to create your music too. Spotify is a good platform, and its algorithm is trying to promote newbie creators. Regular users love listening and exploring new musicians and faces in a particular niche; that's why you should keep following this route.

Collaborative playlists
