Spotify AI DJ Expands Language and Interaction Options
Spotify is widening how listeners talk to its AI DJ, adding robust Spanish language support and new ways to guide music recommendations. After introducing DJ voice requests earlier in 2025, the platform now lets Premium users ask for music in Spanish, type in requests, or choose from tailored suggestions. This update aims to make the AI DJ feel more responsive and accessible to a broader audience without forcing users into English-only commands.
How the New Spanish Voice Requests Work
Spanish speakers can speak to the AI DJ in real time, receiving curated track selections and on-the-fly announcements about the music being played. If shouting at a phone isn’t ideal, users can switch to text input in either Spanish or English, allowing for discreet commands from the same session. The dual-input option ensures that listening environments—gym, commute, or a quiet office—don’t disrupt the music discovery process.
Three Prompt Suggestions Tailored to Your Tastes
To streamline the experience, the DJ now presents three prompt suggestions that align with your listening history and declared preferences. These prompts help guide the session without requiring users to craft lengthy requests. For example, a prompt might steer the AI DJ toward “continue this vibe,” “switch to upbeat tracks,” or “focus on Spanish-language songs.” The prompts are designed to be intuitive, letting users shape the mood and genre with minimal effort.
How to Access and Use the AI DJ
Finding and using the AI DJ is straightforward. Open Spotify and search for “DJ” in the search bar. Press play to let the DJ curate a radio-style mix with occasional announcements about the tracks. To issue a command, tap the DJ button in the bottom-right corner of the screen and speak or type your request. This setup enables real-time interaction and a more dynamic listening session than traditional playlists.
Why This Matters for Spotify’s User Experience
Language support and flexible input methods are part of Spotify’s strategy to personalize music discovery. By enabling Spanish voice requests alongside English text and voice options, the company broadens accessibility for Spanish-speaking users and adds a layer of convenience for multilingual listeners. The added prompts also reduce friction, helping users achieve the exact vibe they want with fewer steps.
What’s Next for AI DJ and Language Support
As AI-driven listening tools evolve, expect further refinements in how the DJ interprets requests, including more nuanced language understanding, regional Spanish variations, and expanded cultural playlists. Spotify’s ongoing developments suggest a trajectory toward more natural, conversational music discovery that respects user context and preferences.
