Create a new playlist every day using suggestions from Reddit
This Dataflow will retrieve the top links from r/listenToThis, a place for Reddit users to suggest new music.
After extracting artists and song titles, it will search Spotify for the listed tracks and create a new playlist. A great way to discover new music!
You'll need to connect your Spotify account on the Settings tab
