Are you a DJ looking for a convenient way to access your music on the go? Or maybe you're a professional DJ in need of a reliable backup plan when you don't have your physical media. Either way, using the Spotify streaming service with the Crate Hackers desktop app is a great option.
While Spotify has recently stopped supporting many DJ apps, you can still use its incredible playlist interface to create the perfect DJ experience.
To get started with Crate Hackers, simply search for any crate in the desktop app. Once you find a crate you want to add to your collection, go to the top right and click the Spotify logo in the Cloud Crates section. This will take you to Spotify, where you can easily heart/favorite or copy and clone that crate into your own Spotify library.
However, with the recent shutdown between Spotify and 3rd party DJ software (like Serato, Virtual DJ, and Rekordbox), it may be a good idea to transfer your playlists to other streaming services. If you want to transfer or clone a Spotify playlist to Tidal, Beatsource, Apple, or Soundcloud DJ, we recommend using online websites like Soundiiz and TuneMyMusic.
Here's a summary of the steps:
Search for any crate in the Crate Hackers desktop app
Click the Spotify logo in the Cloud Crates section
Heart/favorite or copy and clone the crate into your own Spotify library
Consider transferring your playlists to other streaming services using websites like Soundiiz and TuneMyMusic
