More than 95% of the time when I listen to music, I just want some sort of random shuffle, like a personal radio station. I signed up for Deezer hoping Flow would be that, but it’s missing the mark. I’ve been trying Shuffle My Music instead recently and I’m enjoying it better, but that too is missing the mark. I’m realizing that I’m in search of a sort of combination of Flow and SMM. Below compares Flow to SMM to My Ideal. These percentages are my best guess based on my listening experience. Based on many of the forum topics I’ve read, I think this would satisfy many users. Thanks for your consideration!

 

  Flow SMM My Ideal
Discovery/New music 60% (even with More Favorites turned ON) 0% (for first 50 songs) 20%
Favorite Tracks 20% 33% 20%
From Playlists 20% 33% 20%
From Favorite Albums (not a favorite track) 0% 33% 20%
From Favorite Artists (not a favorite track or from a favorite album) 0% 0% 20%
Ability to adjust %’s above No No Nice-to-have but not a big deal
Genre/Mood Selection Yes No Yes

I agree with all of the above. I think many people coming from Spotify are missing the Smart Shuffle feature, me included. Please consider this (and yes, I already upvoted 😉)

Wait a minute.. on Deezer app, when you say Shuffle My Music, are you referring to the shuffle icon at the top right under the Favorites tab? I always thought that just shuffled tracks from my liked songs and playlists. I didn’t realize it could also recommend and play songs outside my library. Is that how it works? So it’s not just a regular shuffle.. it’s more like Smart Shuffle on Spotify, mixing your music with suggested tracks?
