Spotify's DJ doesn't actually know you. Cadence does. Music that adapts to your taste, your heart rate, and the moment — picks the next track for the journey, not just the playlist.
"Spotify's DJ replays the same fifty songs while ignoring thousands of liked tracks. The feedback loop seems to barely move."— A common refrain. From real users. Repeatedly.
Spotify optimizes "what songs should this user like?" Cadence optimizes "how should this listening experience evolve?" That difference is the whole product.
Most music apps are great at picking the next track. Cadence picks the next moment.
Imports your library, your top tracks, your skips, your saves. Builds a vector that updates with every interaction — not just monthly.
Sessions have shape. Warm-up, peak, cooldown. Cadence sequences each pick to fit the arc you chose — not to fill a queue.
Heart rate, recovery, weather, time of day. Cadence reads the moment and tells you why each pick fits — so you can correct it.
The AI tells you why each track was chosen — so when it's wrong, you know how to steer it.
A two-line explanation grounded in your taste vector and live context. Spotify never tells you. Cadence always does.
See exactly what the DJ is reacting to: HR zone, recovery, weather, time. Tap any chip to learn how it shifted the pick.
Not just thumbs up / down. Six reactions — love, like, skip, not now, too intense, too boring. Each adjusts a different taste dimension.
Steady focus. Build to peak. Slow descent. Cadence sequences to the shape you choose, not the next-track-it-thinks-you-like.
Your taste, your body, your moment. All weighted softly — never as hard filters, never as override.
Khruangbin — A Love International
Sign in with Spotify. Cadence imports your library — top tracks, liked songs, recent listens, playlists. WHOOP and Apple Health are optional.
Workout. Coding. Late night. Discovery. Each session has its own shape, its own taste weights, its own pacing.
Every skip, save, and replay updates your taste. Every "Why this" card teaches you to steer it. Every session it gets sharper.
"Sessions, not playlists."
"Journeys, not next-track recommendations."
"Your body, your moment, your music."
Cadence is a personal project, built solo, in Europe. Privacy isn't a feature here — it's the default. Your biosignal data never leaves our infrastructure. Tokens are encrypted at rest. Raw heart rate values are never logged. You can export everything, you can delete everything, any time.
Private beta opens summer 2026. WHOOP-cohort spots first — drop your email and we'll be in touch.
