Spotify Expands AI DJ Feature with New Languages and Interactivity
Spotify announced on Thursday that its interactive AI DJ feature now supports four additional languages: French, German, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese. Until recently, the feature was only available in English and Spanish.
- The company has introduced different names and personalities for the AI DJs to match their respective languages: Maia, Ben, Alex, and Dani.
- In addition to expanding language support, Spotify is now making the feature available in Austria, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, South Korea, and Switzerland. This brings the total number of supported countries to more than 75.
While the initial version of the AI DJ provided commentary on songs alongside user-selected tracks, Spotify has been enhancing its interactivity over recent years. In May 2025, they updated the feature to allow users to chat with the AI DJ and make requests for mood or genre changes. The company also added the capability to prompt the AI DJ to play specific tracks.
“Spotify’s initial version of the AI DJ provided commentary on songs while playing tracks that users wanted,” said a spokesperson. “Over the last few years, we’ve been working to make this feature more interactive.”
Meaning for Makers and Artists
The inclusion of new languages and increased interactivity in Spotify’s AI DJ feature means that music creators and artists can now work with a broader range of audiences. It also provides them with tools to enhance their content, such as the ability to create custom playlists based on user preferences.
Key Takeaways
