OUR MISSION
The concept of music has successfully integrated itself in the everyday lives of 21st century humans, as it did for many preceding years in history. Music provides a background that artistically influences our daily occurrences. Such a big part of our world was meant to be commemorated with music sharing apps, listening platforms, and more. Derived from our passion for music, we decided to create a program which curates a playlist depending on your location where you start and end on a road trip. By adding select songs by local artists from cities you will be traveling through in your road trip, you will be receiving a unique compilation of songs which you can use to paint that musical background for your trip, as well as find new artists and songs you may like. In doing so, you will also be supporting local artists in your listening to their music. So, for your next road trip, try making a playlist from our website to accommodate the journey, and truly travel through music.
HOW TO USE:
- Input the starting and ending point of your road trip as indicated below. (make sure to choose options from the dropdown menu)
- A list of cities will appear. The artists from the songs belong to those cities.
- Next to it will appear the spotify tracks URI's
- Copy all the track codes and click on the spotify icon provided.
- Log into your spotify account if you are not already logged in
- Once you are in Spotify make an empty playlist and just paste the codes. You don't need to copy and paste each individual track. Simply copy all the tracks at once and then paste them into your empty Spotify playlist!
- The tracks should appear and you are now ready to go!
