When I heard "AI DJ" I got excited for beat matching/mixing. But this is really just a "Discover Mix" with an annoying AI voice to interrupt. Not sure why they felt it necessary to replicate the most annoying part of a radio DJ (talking).

Sounds like I'm looking for two other products: Party Mode (2015) and Auto-Mixing Testing (2018)

We do have the spotify mix option as a beta option in France but it is quite annoying... I definitely prefer DJ pro engine mix when it comes to auto mixing. Thanks for your feeback!
