I got tired of Spotify recommending me the same songs, from the same artists, over and over again.

So I built Riff Radar - it creates playlists from your followed artists' complete discography, and allows you to tailor them in multiple ways. Those playlists are my top listened to. I know, because you can also see your listening statistics (at the mercy of Spotify's API).

The playlists also get updated daily. Think of it as a better version of the daily mixes Spotify creates.

Good stuff, but I don't use the follow feature on Spotify. Can it use number of plays of songs/artists to make the playlists?

Thanks!

Right now it's not possible, but I'll put it on my list of features to add. Unfortunately though, the play history Spotify provides is very innaccurate and incomplete - so suggestions only based on that would be quite limited :( It's the same issue with the statistics, they are best-effort based.

Having said that, there is another feature you could use: if you have or follow any playlists, you can include artists from them. Make sure to have the `Index Playlist Artists` option (it will get enabled automatically if you follow <100 artists) and tick `Include playlist artists` setting when creating your playlists.
