Our Spotify playlists reveal a lot about ourselves but how obscure (or basic) is your music taste?

Music fans know that their listening habits reveal a lot about them but Obscurify lets users take it one step further.

Since Spotify Wrapped, the internet has become obsessed with creating musical colour palettes, pie charts and even icebergs based on the tracks they stream.

Now, we can compare our stats with the rest of the country to truly make sense of how mainstream or alternative our tastes really are.

What is Obscurify?

Obscurify is a platform developed by Alex Olivero and Nirmal Patel with the aim of helping you "better understand your own music taste."

Using Spotify's Web API, it analyses listening history to give you your top genres as well as recommend some songs you might enjoy.

It then makes playlists of tunes from your track lists and puts them in your Spotify library.

This includes a historical snapshot which you can find when you log in to your Obscurify profile.

How does Oscurify work?

Obscurify gives you an overall rating - the higher the percentage, the more obscure your tastes are.

You'll also find an analysis of playlist mood, ranking your listening habits on how happy, energetic and danceable your favourite tunes are.

If that's not enough, you can view your tastes broken down by decade and your top tracks from each era.

It couldn't be easier to share your results either, all you need to do is turn on sharing in the menu and send your unique generated link to your friends and followers.

Users have been taking to social media to share their results and their reactions couldn't be better.

One person wrote: "checking my obscurify every few months to make sure i’m still pretentious and annoying."

Another user added: "me liking a song on the radio: dang this is gonna tank my obscurify rating

A third shared: "not that i’m better than everyone but my obscurify is at 98% so take that as you will."
