you have to go to the spotify desktop app, add your mp3 folder in the settings, then they should show up under "local files," then you can add them to a playlist, then you can go to your spotify mobile app and select the checkbox that's like "download for offline," if your phone and computer are on the same wifi network, it'll download to your phone

it's incredibly stupid and i am constantly shocked that they haven't removed the feature yet because it's so weird to use. bandcamp's app seems fine for listening to albums but it is kinda annoying when you can't just add some songs to your spotify playlists easily

I wouldn't be surprised if it's that way do to some weird licensing stuff with labels. Cause it's a serious pain and I think it's been that way for awhile.

well, it's also fair to remember that's like a 10 year old feature and dates from a time when the main way of getting a music on a phone was "plug it in and use itunes to transfer songs over your usb cable." at the time (and i believe still now? maybe this has changed since apple has started acknowledging "Files" as a concept again) there was no way for spotify to do that, since the iphone filesystem and transfer stuff was locked down for everything except camera photos.

so honestly, at the time, it felt like a clever hack that, in the best case, could actually feel nicer than having to plug your phone in, since it was all wireless. of course, spotify then never touched this feature again, so they never moved to the cloud storage model that itunes now has (spooked by amazon music storage's failure among others, i assume, and maybe labels fought back against them doing anything like itunes match), and they never moved it from being playlist-based to being library-based when they added the library

It's really strange cause the clipping stuff is typically not just good, but often kinda abrasive/avant-garde and have a political bent, but everything else I've seen him associated with is the most milquetoast, bland, corny poo poo in the world.

Because he’s doing it in an ad for a predatory delivery app. The real root of the problem is HBO buying Sesame Street.

I like clipping and I’m all for musicians getting whatever money they can get to continue funding their artistic output, but there is a particularly weird dissonance between clipping’s music and Diggs’ more outward facing image.

First listen and it's not too bad - much prefer the more aggressive first half to the calmer, introspective second half though. Lots of samples that reminds me a bit of old Memphis stuff - probably a result of signing with ASAP Rocky's crew.
