I have used Spotify Audio Features API to display albums and playlist on a radar charts showing acousticness, instrumentalness, energy etc. And to make recomendations (generate playlists) for similiar music based on these charateristics.

It has been fun project but now I am glad that I have never considered making anything serious out of it.

I did this project because my impression is that Spotify had been always trying to steer me not to music that I like but to music that Spotify makes most money of. It had always been paid promotions over user's tastes in music.

And I am not on Spotify anymore for years now. Apple Music have really tasteful recommendations and music curation.
