Hello, i recently started using Deezer instead of Spotify for ethical reasons and, so far, the only thing i really miss about Spotify is Jam sessions. In a long distance relationship or for parties it is mega useful. I am not considering Shaker as an alternative, it is a totally different feature. I heard that Deezer is recommending it as a replacement but it is really not. 
It would be a killer feature for Deezer because it is the only thing that is making me consider going back to spotify, and some friends of mine already have. Thanks a lot for reading :)

Hey there ​@Gauthier Leclercq 

While Shaker and collaborative playlists, as well as other features like music quizzes, have considerably enhanced deezer’s ability to share and enjoy music with others, I agree that Jam is different. I don’t find myself needing that function, but we all listen to music differently.

There's obviously a very valid reason you’re leaving Spotify, so perhaps you will weigh the benefits deezer offers versus the Jam feature that you were used to.

I agree with many of the reasons I see people leaving Spotify for, and I think it is important that we consider these things when supporting businesses.

Whatever you decide, thanks for giving deezer a try. There are trade-offs with every service and we all need to find what works for us.

Best of luck wherever you land.


Hi! Yes sorry I should have made clear that deezer is already very cool and full of  amazing features, very convincing already. My point was just that this is THE feature that is missing for me and for some on my surroundings. 


I did the exact same switch from Spotify to Deezer recently and I'm also really missing Spotify's Jam sessions. I hope Deezer will implement something similar at some point.

The Jams feature is a huge reason why a lot of people won’t switch to deezer surprisingly. It is such an amazing feature though and Deezer would definitely benefit from adding it. Being able to listen along with friends anywhere is so much fun! I really really do miss Jams

Honestly, Deezer really needs to implement Jams if they want to capitalize on people migrating from Spotify. The Jams feature is an extremely social and enjoyable feature. No reason not to mimic it.
