Spotify can make your car journey a smooth road or a rough ride, say Redex.
The specialist additive company has consulted the downloads on Spotify to come up with the country’s favourite music, whether taking a stress relieving road trip or enduring another commute.
With the clampdown on public transport, cars and personal space will become more important. And if you’re stuck on a lonely bus or train there are a few tunes you might like to listen to.
When assessing the sentiment of all driving songs for road trip and everyday commute, there was a pattern in song themes. We like positive messages in our driving songs.
- Assessing the loudness of these, another common theme was for drivers to prefer loud music with a high tempo.
- For road trips we like songs we can sing-a-long to with high ‘danceability’.
