Now we’re giving fans another way to explore on Spotify. Starting today, we’re testing a new experience for Spotify users (across the U.K., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada) where they can find new music and check out Canvas loops in a personalized feed that lives on the home screen of the mobile app.

Whether you want to get a glimpse into the creator’s mindset or learn more about the story behind the song, with this new beta test, we want to help you get closer than ever before to your favorite artists.
