Tidal's new My Mix playlists have finally launched and are similar to Spotify’s Daily Mix and Apple Music’s For You compilations. However, unlike Spotify and Apple Music, Tidal's My Mix playlists are not chosen entirley by AI and instead are curated through a combination of human curation from Tidal's team and machine learning algorithms. The service currently offers six “custom curated collections,” according to a press release, and will feature 50 songs.
The tracks in the My Mix playlists will include newer and older tracks, alongside undiscovered songs for specific users. The mixes will receive regular updates, with daily updates being handed out to Tidal's most active users. The playlists can also be saved for offline listening and copies can be made so users can capture a specific playlist before it's updated.
