Why this mattered

Spotify wanted to introduce its new Mixing Tool feature in a way that felt native to TikTok and Instagram,  using creators to demonstrate intentional playlisting through content that felt relatable, personal and rooted in their own styles.

Built with community

TAG recruited a group of leading digital creators and equipped them with three creative hooks  from “The Great Lock In” to horoscope-inspired mixes  giving them flexible frameworks to develop concepts that aligned with their audiences. Each creator was encouraged to interpret the feature in a way that felt authentic to their content style, ensuring the work stayed natural, entertaining and platform-native.

What came to life

Creators such as Moe (@hellacreps) and Aoife (@aoifefarrell) produced TikTok and Instagram videos connecting the new Mix feature to real routines: fashion choices, moods, personality traits and everyday stories. Paid spend followed the organic rollout, amplifying the strongest-performing content across both platforms.

What changed

The campaign delivered strong organic performance and standout paid results across TikTok and Instagram. Combined, Moe and Aoife’s content achieved:

  • Over 3.7M total views across organic and paid
  • High engagement driven by personality-led storytelling
  • Positive sentiment on early organic content, especially around relatability and creative tie-ins

Why it connected

The content worked because creators wove the mixing tool  feature naturally into what they already do, letting it sit within their existing style, humour and storytelling rather than feeling like a sell. By keeping the execution true to their platforms, the feature felt organic, relatable and easy for audiences to adopt.
