On the Deezer HOME page you can find a bunch of playlists.
You may be wondering why exactly these players are here !?

 

 

 

Here is the explanation :


Deezer uses your listening history and preferences to suggest relevant playlists.

It analyzes your "Favorite Tracks," "Top Tracks," and other recently played music to create personalized recommendations. By interacting with content you enjoy, like liking tracks and creating playlists, you can further refine these suggestions.

Deezer also offers algorithm-generated playlists like Flow, Mix, New Releases, and Discovery, which are tailored to your musical taste. 

 

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

 

1. Personalized Recommendations:


Listening History : Deezer tracks the songs, artists, and playlists you listen to regularly. 
Favorite Tracks : Adding songs and artists to your "Favorites" provides Deezer with strong signals about your preferences. 
"Made for You" section : This area features playlists curated based on your listening habits. 
Dislikes : Using the dislike function sparingly helps Deezer understand what music you don't want to hear again. 

 

2. Algorithm-Generated Playlists:


Flow : Deezer's personalized radio, based on your listening history and preferences.
Mixes : Playlists designed to introduce you to new music similar to your tastes.
New Releases : A playlist featuring the latest releases from artists you follow or listen to.
Discovery : A playlist designed to help you find new music based on your listening habits. 

 

3. Improving Recommendations:


Engage with what you love : Like tracks, albums, and artists you enjoy.
Create and listen to playlists :  Deezer uses your playlist activity to refine suggestions.
Explore new music : Don't be afraid to venture outside your usual genres.
Be selective with dislikes : Use the dislike function to fine-tune your recommendations.

The home page is absolutely full of completely irrelevant suggestions that I have zero interest in! Dance music, "queer" music, dubstep… seriously? And on top of that, it keeps throwing completely unknown names at me from music genres I don't even listen to. I've never clicked on anything like that, never searched for it, never indicated any interest — but there it is, taking up space and cluttering my feed. It feels like the algorithm is just throwing random stuff at the wall to see what sticks, instead of actually paying attention to my listening history and preferences. Why would I want recommendations for artists I've never heard of in genres I actively avoid? It's frustrating and honestly makes me want to use other service.
