You can now link your account to Spotify, and when playing a track from any Spotify connected device, listening data will be ‘scrobbled’ to Last FM.

If you listen to a lot of music, you probably should be using Last FM already as it can help you discover new music and build your collection, as well as offer fascinating insights on your musical tastes – (Register for FREE). There are lots of Applets specifically for Spotify that are already provided using If This Then That here – (Register for FREE). If This Then That, also known as IFTTT, is a free web based service that creates chains of simple conditional statements, called Applets.Īn Applet is triggered by changes that occur within other web services such as Gmail, Facebook, Telegram, Instagram, Pinterest, RSS, and Spotify. Once you start running short of track availability, simply delete all the tracks in the oldest PLAY HISTORY playlist. This will of course depend on how often you listen to your music and how long a period of time you would want recently played tracks to be skipped in your most recently created playlists. Start with a playlist PLAY HISTORY 1, and use it for about month or until it gets close to the 1000 track max, then move on to PLAY HISTORY 2.

This provides a simple method of preventing repeated tracks… It will ensure that your recently played Spotify tracks can easily be filtered out from a newly curated playlist, thereby reducing duplicates, or the same tracks being added too often. Having a playlist that is updated in real-time would be useful, especially if you decide to utilise it within the Smarter Playlists tool. A PLAY HISTORY PLAYLIST USING an RSS FEED, IFTTT and LAST FM
