Spotify has patented technology that will allow it to analyse your voice and suggest songs based on your emotional state, gender, age, or accent .
The patent, which was filed in 2018 and granted on 12 January, would allow the streaming giant to make observations about a user s environment and emotions using speech recognition technology.
Spotify could then play music reflecting their mood or even their social setting - e.g. alone, small group, party, according to the patent.
If implemented, the feature will presumably boost the streaming statistics for Lesley Gore s It s My Party (And I ll Cry If I Want To).
