The Financial Times reports a Q1 2027 target; Spotify has not commented, and pricing and timing are still under discussion.
Spotify is reportedly aiming to launch an AI-powered remix and cover service in the first quarter of 2027, according to a Financial Times report dated Oct. 30 and picked up by other outlets. Spotify has not officially commented.
The report says subscribers could pay an extra $4 to $5 a month to use AI to transform songs, for example turning a folk track into a dance version. A possible unveiling around the February Grammy Awards was mentioned. Pricing and timing are still reportedly under discussion.
Spotify has reportedly signed licensing deals with Universal Music Group, Merlin and Believe, and is still negotiating with Sony Music and Warner. Only artists who opt in would be included, even where their label has signed.
Royalties from fan remixes would reportedly go to the original artists, and remix plays would count towards the original songs' chart figures.
