Allow user to customize FLOW - favorites vs new

K

Add sliders to FLOW for customization for each use. In order of preference/most useful:

  1. What % of FLOW should be from your favorite tracks (0-100%)?
  2. What % of FLOW should be from your favorite artists (0-100%)?
  3. What % of FLOW should be from XYZ genre (0-100%)? I realize there are pre-made mixes for these sometimes, but this option would be keeping it within your favorites. Within FLOW, sometimes I want more of one genre or another. Sometimes I want to mix in some metal, sometimes not. Sometimes I want mostly relaxing music. Sometimes I want more upbeat. So I could select 100% on slider 1 above and then all metal for example. It would only play my favorite metal tracks.
  4. What % of FLOW should be new releases (0-100%)?

With these sliders, I can’t think of any reason why I would ever not listen to FLOW. All of the other “daily” mixes, “playlists you’ll love”, etc. “Music” section can go away. There would be no need for any other automated mixes.

Hey @Keelsford sounds like a good idea, count with my vote. However I don’t think we should get rid of all the other options as some people like them too.
Feel free to promote your idea in the community in related Flow topics to gather more votes. :nerd:

Yeah I agree with you. I should have said that I wouldn’t care to use anything else but Flow. I suppose there’s no reason to get rid of them.

The new Flow mood (at least on mobile app) mostly takes care of #3 above. 

I don’t think #4 is that important.

I still think addressing #1 and #2 in addition to the new mood function would take Flow to the next level. In my opinion it currently doesn’t play enough my non-favorited tracks from my favorite artists. It’s either playing the same favorite tracks from favorite artists, or it’s playing random new artists. I want more of my favorite artists, but the tracks I haven’t favorited.
