How to convert a setlist to Spotify

1

Copy the setlist text

Select the tracklist from whatever source you found it — set times, numbering, and extra text are all fine. Here's a typical example:

Example: electronic music setlist

22:00 – Bicep – Glue
22:07 – Caribou – Never Come Back
22:14 – Four Tet – Baby
22:20 – Floating Points – Silhouettes
22:28 – Jon Hopkins – Emerald Rush
2

Paste it into ListToTrack

Head to ListToTrack and paste the text. The AI parser strips out set times, dashes, numbering, and other noise to extract clean artist + track pairs.

3

Create your playlist

Connect your Spotify account, name your playlist (e.g., "Sónar 2025 Saturday Night"), and click Create. Each track is searched on Spotify and added to your playlist in order.

Pro tip: Combine multiple sets

💡
Build one big festival playlist from multiple stages. Use the "Add to existing" feature to convert each set into the same playlist. ListToTrack automatically detects and skips duplicates so you won't get repeated tracks.
💡
Name it well.Including the festival name and year in your playlist title (e.g., "Tomorrowland 2025 Mainstage") makes it easy to find later.
