Spotify Remix Remover

Removes remix tracks from any Spotify generated playlist such as Recent Releases or Discover Weekly. You can also specify additional keywords to filter out songs.

Why?

Sometimes the spotify generated playlists contain a large amount of remixes that I'm not really interested in hearing. Also Spotify is aware that many people want the feature but did not implement it for a while and it doesnt look like it's gonna happen anytime soon. See here and here

How to use it

  1. Install dependencies (pip install -r requirements.txt)
  2. register as a developer for spotify and register an application
  3. rename sample_remover_params.conf to remover_params.conf and fill in the fields
  4. run python remove_remixes.py (You only need to authorize the app once)
  5. repeat as desired or setup a cron job for once a week(or whatever the update cycle of your playlist type is)

Possible Improvements

  1. print statistics e.g. How many songs where removed etc.
  2. Make the script usable for non developers e.g set up flask plus a small frontend etc. and host it somewhere
