Spotify and Headspace launch joint subscription
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 4 November 2016
Spotify has announced a new partnership with meditation and mindfulness website Headspace to offer a joint subscription to both services. So now you can listen to Slayer while you have a good old think. Or you could listen to some of the special playlists they’ve prepared for the tie up. Whatever.
“We’re excited to offer our users more of what we know they like”, says Spotify’s Alex Norström. “Through our partnership with the world’s leading meditation platform, we’re creating a new and exciting pairing of premium services with the collective goal to deliver more music and mindfulness to the world”.
Headspace founder Andy Puddicombe adds: “Mindfulness is all about being in the moment. And when we are, we get so much more enjoyment from music. With playlists focusing on things like calm, sleep, study and exercise, Spotify Premium perfectly complements Headspace’s guides to training the mind for a healthier, happier life. We’re excited to offer our users access to both services in a simple and convenient way”.
People residing in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark can buy the joint subscription right now. It’ll also be coming to the UK and The Netherlands soon-ish. It will be interesting to see if Spotify launches further joint subscriptions of this type. I could be interested in some sort of music/bacon combo.
