I use YT Music's Mix feature to discover music and it's pretty good. If my supermix would figure what to play when, that would be pretty dope.

What emotion should Spotify be shooting for? Good music can cause a lot of different emotions; dopamine can come from many emotional sources.

Even no emotion is fine. Music doesn’t need to exercise our brains all the time. Or even every time you listen to a particular song.

I don't particularly care about the details. I want the mixes or radios or discovers to be interesting to me. I'll give them lots of information if it will help them get it right.
