Deezer introduces a significant update to its Flow Tuner feature, empowering users to ban specific genres or subgenres from personalized playlists while encouraging others for fresh discoveries.
Greater Control Over Personalized Playlists
Flow Tuner generates custom playlists based on listening habits. The new upgrade allows immediate deactivation of unwanted genres, such as pop in a 90s folk rock mix, or reactivation later. Users can also introduce unexplored genres to expand their tastes, with changes applying instantly to the Flow playlist.
How the Feature Works
Activating Flow prompts users to select genres to include or exclude. The tool offers detailed subgenres, enabling precise customization despite fluid genre boundaries.
Edge Over Competitors
Unlike Apple Music’s thumbs-down option, whose impact remains unclear, or Spotify’s limited song exclusions from taste profiles, Deezer provides robust playlist control. This enhancement prevents mismatched recommendations, like modern pop artists in classic rock lists.
AI Tracks Excluded by Default
Deezer automatically bans AI-generated tracks from Flow Tuner, ensuring higher-quality, human-curated content. The service excels with unique tools like quizzes, collaborative playlist building, and music recognition, setting it apart from rivals.
This update positions Deezer as a top choice for music discovery, offering a compelling alternative for users frustrated with algorithmic inconsistencies.
