Access music metadata, audio features (tempo, energy, danceability), playlist data, artist catalogues, and listening history from the Spotify platform. Used in data engineering for building music recommendation systems, audio feature datasets, and trend analysis pipelines with the spotipy Python library.
The `spotipy` Python library wraps the Spotify Web API with OAuth handling. Engineers pull track audio features (danceability, energy, key) in bulk using `spotipy.Spotify.audio_features()` and store them in pandas DataFrames for clustering and recommendation experiments.
Spotify's audio features and playlist data power music-aware AI applications. You can build a RAG system that recommends playlists based on mood descriptions, or fine-tune a model to classify genres from audio feature vectors. The API also enables LLM-based music discovery chatbots.
# pip install spotipy
import spotipy
from spotipy.oauth2 import SpotifyClientCredentials
sp = spotipy.Spotify(auth_manager=SpotifyClientCredentials(
client_id="YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
client_secret="YOUR_SECRET"
))
features = sp.audio_features(["4uLU6hMCjMI75M1A2tKUQC"])[0]
print("Danceability:", features["danceability"])Official dataset source
