Many DJs want to mix their favorite Spotify songs on Rekordbox, but direct integration ended in 2020 due to licensing. Nevertheless, it is a reliable workaround to download Spotify music to local storage first. Once they are converted into standard files like MP3, you can add them to your Rekordbox library. This guide shows you how to download and add Spotify to Rekordbox so that you can transform your streaming favorites into mix-ready tracks. Get ready to add Spotify songs to Rekordbox and unlock your full Rekordbox library.

Part 1. Download Spotify Songs to MP3

As we all know, Spotify Premium allows users to download music, but downloaded content is in the proprietary OGG Vorbis format, encrypted to work only within authorized Spotify apps. In fact, Spotify prevents access by third-party software like Rekordbox. On the other hand, Rekordbox can only be used to process files in standard formats like MP3, AAC, AIFF, and more. And it is not integrated with Spotify now, so direct use is impossible. To address the problem, you can convert Spotify songs to a readable format (MP3 for example) on Rekordbox with a dedicated tool: Tidabie Music Go.

Tidabie Music Go is a versatile tool designed to download music, playlists, and albums from Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music, Tidal, YouTube Music, Deezer, SoundCloud, YouTube, Qobuz, and more. It converts Spotify music into many formats, such as MP3, AAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, or ALAC with original audio quality. Additionally, batch downloads are supported at up to 10x normal speed. All downloaded files retain full ID3 tags to keep your local library organized.
