Spotify Music catalogue updated with 200 releases

Today we have a small update to let you know about, roughly 200 albums and singles were added for a total of 2,062 new tracks.

We also still have our pre-release of Depeche Mode’s latest album, Sounds of the Universe, for premium users in the Nordics. Along with the pre-release we have a contest to win a chance to meet the band at the Arvika festival so if you’re interested check out the pre-release blog post.

For a full listing of todays additions please have a look at the Google Doc. As with every update not all albums listed may be available in your country and some tracks previously available may no longer be playable due to regional restrictions.

What would be a fantastic idea would be to have some sort of star rating system where users can rate a song, which then later on gives to option to look back on all the users own ratings. That way as users we can build up a library of our favourite songs and treat the application more like itunes just with adverts inbetween.

 
 

Thanks Andres for making it clearer that, with every update, as well as adding tracks, previously available tracks may disappear or become unplayable. I know it's not Spotify's fault, but unfortunately it's you that takes all the blame for this crazy system of regional restrictions. Users should focus their attention on complaining to the artists and their record labels in order to get things changed instead of complaining to Spotify.

 
 

hm a small but nice update...the old American pie 1 soundtrack album, me likes :) + the new all time low single weightless

 
 

when will ALL 2Pac albums get listed on Spotify? I live in Sweden.Please reaply

 
 

it'd be great if the google doc showed the genre too!

 
 

retskrad - We seem to have quite a few 2Pac albums, which ones are you missing?

Andres: [1991] 2Pacalypse Now [1993] Strictly 4 My Niggaz [1994] Thug Life [1995] Me Against The World [1996] All Eyez On Me [1996] The Don Killuminati - 7 Day Theory [1997] R U Still Down [1998] Greatest Hits [1999] Still I Rise [2001] Until The End Of Time [2002] Better Dayz [2003] Resurrection OST [2004] Loyal To The Game [2006] Pac's Life those are his offical albums. all I see is Pac's Life, and still I rise, and some other albums that is NOT his official albums. Is it because I live in sweden that I cant see the albums listed?

 
 

I miss having some classic 90's eurodance on the list, Basic Element, DJ Bobo, Culture Beat (Mr Vain!!) etc, for those times you want to feel nostalgic ;) I guess you're making more current music a priority though.

 
 

It's crazy that I can't listen to 'I'm not alone'... it's no.1!

 
 

It would be great if you could upload Obadiah Parker's album. He's so great!

 
 

Comment on digithed's reply. Of course its the record labels and artists fault that Spotify has too remove music but the complaints are correct because only once have Spotify announced that they are removing music and then they wrote "From this point on there are no plans to remove any more music and our catalogue will only grow from here." And that why, at least me got confused by artist suddenly disapearing.

 
 

Hello ! Is it possible to suggest some artists ? Thanks !

 
 

Still not the new Debauchery Album. It is called Rockers & War. There is another album missing as well, which is called Kill,Maim,Burn Would it be possible to get these?

 
 

kakoute, johnnsen - As you can see were constantly adding new music. It's not really possible to request new stuff but we're working to get everything in so hopefully you'll see your favorites soon.

 
 

I would love to see the artist Lundsson on Spotify =) Am I able to suggest bands/artists anywhere????

retskrad - While it doesn't appear that we have all of 2Pac's albums we do have more than just Pac's Life and Still I Rise. For instance Loyal to the game is there: http://open.spotify.com/album/6reqzR9irdAHWR8abHyqbG

 
 

andres - yeah I forgot loyal to the game is listed the other albums then? will they be avaible?

 
 

will they be avaible in the future?

 
 

Thanks for the reply andres. I hope this service goes well and that you make enough money from it to keep it alive.

 
 

retskrad - If we have a few it's likely we'll get the rest, I'll ask around and try and find out why they're missing.

 
 

thanks alot my man, without Pac I cant use Spotify =) really appreciated that youre takin yuor time.

 
 

first... thankyoueversomuchformakingspotify! any chance of some "men without hats" coming our way?specially the "Rhythm of Youth" album (safety dance!)? and please please please.. DE LA SOUL, please add some albums? 3feet high and rising and de la soul is dead would be greatly appreciated!

 
 

any small update is aniway an update so it's wellcome

 
 

It's good to see that you have taken away most of the " - Album Version" tags, but there's still a lot of songs tagged with " - LP version" and " - Live Show / Event" for instance. I do of course listen to the songs whatever they are tagged, but it screws up my last.fm which is really annoying. I would understand it if the live songs were tagged with "(Live)", but all those other tags are just too much.

 
 

Nice... Im looking forward to some of the new prodigy stuff comes out

 
 

The only let down for Spotify is that the latest downloads sometimes take months to come through. Eg. Duck Sauce hasn't shown up, and they released their debut single in November! Thanks

 
 

Hey all of you who are wondering about 2Pac's albums. They are all added if I know correctly but currently they are not available in any territories. Don't worry though, that will be solved in a few days. 2Pacalypse Now: http://open.spotify.com/album/5Ijk8JGsEkwCZd5i0Iy09a Strictly: http://open.spotify.com/album/7FK1855C3n1Q0RKbmvl7ll Me Against the World: http://open.spotify.com/album/3OrucS4sHv6Bl9GS4rafEk Thug Life: spotify:album:29STRG7wIt5L41sGuCMeyJ
