Spotify Plans AI Music Remix and Cover Service Early Next Year
Spotify is reportedly planning to launch an AI-powered music remix and cover service in early 2027 as a paid add-on, allowing users to rearrange popular songs and generate covers. This development represents a major step for the music industry in transforming generative AI into a new revenue stream through official licensing and artist collaboration. The feature may cost subscribers an extra $4 to $5 per month, and while record labels are negotiating, participating artists retain the final right to opt in or out.
## BACKGROUND
Suno AI is a generative artificial intelligence music creation platform that produces songs based on user text prompts and text inputs. Unlike Suno, which generates completely new audio from scratch using text, Spotify's upcoming service allows users to remix and create covers specifically from pre-existing, authorized music tracks.
