Spotify’s New SongDNA Feature Maps How Your Favorite Songs Are Connected

Spotify has begun a global rollout of SongDNA, an interactive feature for Premium subscribers on iOS and Android. The tool expands the existing “About the Song” view by mapping samples, covers, interpolations and the full roster of writers, producers and engineers behind each track. Built on data from the WhoSampled database—acquired by Spotify last year—the feature offers a deeper discovery layer for listeners and creators alike. Spotify plans to complete the rollout by April, positioning the service against rivals like Tidal’s credit system.
