The music taste test

A music taste test that listens instead of asking

Most taste tests ask you to rate ten songs. brew reads all of yours. Every track you love sits somewhere on one map of pure sound, and your library lights up a shape on it - that shape, named, is your taste, and it is more specific than any quiz could guess.

No quiz. Free. Reads your Spotify in about a minute.

Trusted and loved by 5,000+ people like you who care about music, since 2021.

Who lives in your Spotify?

Your sides are made of your artists. Most people find a few of them put out new music in the last 60 days.

Brew listened to 2,076 songs from Bart’s artists and found 4 people living in there. Then it made them a film, cut to their own songs. Yours takes about a minute.

  • The people inside your library, found by sound - not genres
  • Your four letters, spelled out - and roasted
  • A film and cards to post, cut to your own songs

Free. Brew reads your library and never posts for you. Brew adds one private playlist, Fresh Finds, with new music from your top artists. Remove it any time.

How the test works

Instead of rating ten songs, brew reads all of yours. Every track in your library goes on one map of sound, built from the audio itself. Your library lights up a few separate regions of it - your sides - and the four letters of your type describe the shape they make.

The four letters, and what each one reads

Intimate or Kinetic: whether your taste - weighted toward the side you reach for most - leans to close, quiet music (folk, soul, piano, ambient) or music built to move (house, techno, drum and bass, trap).

Focused or Eclectic: how many distinct sides your library splits into - a few close ones, or a roster.

Rooted or Rising: whether one side of your taste is taking over lately while another fades, or whether you keep coming back to the same places.

Mainstream or Niche: how popular the artists you play are on Spotify, averaged across your library.

What a quiz can’t tell you

A quiz measures what you say you like. This measures what you keep: how many sides you have, which one is taking over lately, and how mainstream the artists you play really are.

Questions people ask

Is it free?
The test is free - your sides, your four letters, your type and the film. Brew's real job is making sure you never miss a release from your artists: free watches your top 10, lifetime up to 1,000.
Is there a version without Spotify?
Not here. brew reads your Spotify library, which is the point: it scores what you actually listen to, not what you say you like.
How long does it take?
About a minute the first time, because brew listens to every artist in your library. After that your reading opens instantly.
Do I have to give brew my password?
No. You sign in through Spotify’s own login page, and brew reads your library from there. It never sees your password and never posts anything for you. brew is independent and not affiliated with Spotify.
