With users each year keen to find out when they’ll get access to customised playlists and more year-specific content, Spotify’s Wrapped campaign has launched, including out social, out of home (OOH), YouTube and cinema advertising.
After revealing the top artists of 2019 and the last decade, Spotify is now highlighting key cultural moments, streaming trends and memes that have connected society over the last year.
“How do you dance to a decade’s worth of data? Especially when the last ten years have been so wild, and had such a compelling soundtrack,” said Spotify global executive creative director Alex Bodman.
“With a Decade Wrapped, we celebrate and show appreciation for the fortunate role we’ve been able to play over the last decade: connecting the world’s best fans with the world’s best creators.
“We hope we’ll remind people of the moments this decade that inspired them to smile, share, laugh – or sometimes just scratch their head. In many ways, it’s a campaign ten years in the making.”
Across 21 markets including Australia, the campaign features artists including Lil Nas X, John Legend and Mariah Carey.
Tapping into the Aussie market, there are nods to prominent local artists like Tones And I, Jessica Mauboy, Tame Impala and Amy Shark, while cultural phenomenons like Egg Boy also feature.

“We’re excited to step this up in 2019, and lets users explore how their taste has evolved not just over one year, but for an entire decade on Spotify”.
Following on from Spotify’s huge sold-out Front Left Live playlist event, a super-cut of the concert featuring Tove Lo, Dominic Fike, girl in red, BENEE, and Electric Fields will be available on YouTube.
And finally, fans will be able to get involved in the action, with the streaming platform giving away four speciality slushies in Melbourne and Sydney.
The four flavours feature the likeness of prominent Aussie artists and include There’s an Amy (Shark) in the Water(melon), Dean Lewis’ Berry Alright, Freshica Mauboy & Tones and Lime.
