Moving past the top charting artists and songs, we also found some additional data on playlists. Spotify saw an increase in nostalgia themed playlists, as people reflected on better times in their lives than this past year. There also was a new outlet that emerged, “work from home” playlists as much of the world has transitioned to that reality. Spotify also noted a huge increase in streaming while gaming. Both Xbox and Playstation saw a 55% increase in streaming while gaming. In light of the Black Lives Matter Movement, over 65,000 playlists were created to highlight the cause.
With all of these trends emerging it is a critical time for play-listing. With a rise in streaming as a whole, whether it’s listening to a work from home playlist or streaming while gaming for hours on end, a better time couldn’t emerge for getting your next track on a popular playlist.
