I’ve tried to select some of my favourite tunes from each decade, starting with some 90’s classics and gradually bringing you back to the current day, perhaps with a few surprises on the way. That’s right! So with this first mix, my aim was to take you back on a musical journey through the years. What could you tell us about the selection? You’ve also shared your very first mix as community manager in the app. I can’t wait to share more mixes with the community like you’ve done Emőke. Being able to zoom in and make manual adjustments to the transitions really allows for some serious creative possibilities. What’s your favourite feature of the Pacemaker app? I think I have seen them in concert about 3 times now. I might have a bit of an addiction to the duo known as Disclosure. If I had to pick a single genre or artist though, the genre would be House music. Hopefully the community will see this in my mixes. I genuinely love listening to a range of different genres of music and having performed at weddings and private parties it’s great to be able to switch up the mood of a party by playing everything from 80’s disco to the latest House and RnB. What kind of music do you prefer and what kind of mixes can the community expect from you in the future? Pacemaker is such an awesome company to work for because of all the new music you can discover on a daily basis. As well as this I’ve helped out behind the scenes at a number of festivals and events, usually operating lights and sound equipment. I love music and performing as a mobile DJ in my local area is something I’ve done for a number of years. What do you do in your spare time outside of working for Pacemaker? You’ve certainly made a lasting impact on the Pacemaker community Emőke, so I’m sure I’ve got a lot to live up to! What are you most excited about in your new role as Community Manager?įrom helping with customer support, I know the Pacemaker community has always had some really talented and really passionate people within it and I’m really excited to meet more of these people in this new role. Some members of the Pacemaker community might also recognise me helping out with testing in our Pacemaker Beta program. Since 2013 I’ve worked as a customer support assistant for Pacemaker, therefore it’s possible if you’ve emailed or tweeted us with a technical question then we might have already spoken. You’re no stranger to the community, since you’ve been already working with us behind the scenes… At the time of course, I had no-idea that this device would lead to me eventually working for Pacemaker, but over the years I gradually met members of the Pacemaker team. I love the original device and still use it today. It was so unique, there was nothing else like it at the time. Thanks for the warm welcome Emőke! Back in 2008 I discovered Pacemaker when the company Tonium originally launched the Pacemaker Device, a handheld DJ device that let you mix music on the move. Meet your new best friend in the app – the amazing Phillip! Everyone is super excited to find out more about Pacemaker’s new Community Manager! Please tell us a bit about yourself, who is Phillip? I do appreciate how they listened to user feedback and fixed the issues I had with it quickly.Say hello to Pacemaker’s new Community Manager: Phillip, who had a chat with Emőke to introduce himself. If the new daily mixes were terrible, they would have found this out before wasting time adding it to all the different clients capable of consumingh Spotify.Ĭontrast this with the way Spotify transitioned away from "likes", which was poorly done in my opinion.In that case, they removed a number of use cases with no replacement. As a result, I suspect they will continue to add it to other Spotify clients. In this case, the new daily mixes is pretty well received I believe. You want to get it in the hands of customers ASAP to get feedback. Often, you aren't sure whether a new feature will be used. As a software developer working at a small startup and trying to deliver new features that users want, while wasting as little time on new features they don't, I can see why this wasn't rolled out across the board all at once. Would you rather it weren't released yet for the phone? I'm sitting here at work listening to spotify on my phone instead of my laptop so that I can use this new feature. Really.why introduce a new playlist feature and NOT have it available on ALL apps, mobile, desktop or otherwise? How do I find the "Your Daily Mix " on a Laptop/PC.
