Overview
Music taste reveals personality faster than any bio. When someone sees you both love Arctic Monkeys or share a guilty pleasure for 90s pop — that's an instant conversation starter. This integration pulls your users' Spotify data directly into their dating profiles, showing top artists and recent tracks.
Research shows music is the most commonly discussed topic when strangers get acquainted, and it remains relevant long after other topics fade. Your users get better matches. You get higher engagement.

Why music matters in dating
Research-backed results
Studies show people consider music preferences more revealing of personality than books, clothing, food, or movies. Music triggers dopamine and oxytocin — the same chemicals released when falling in love. Shared music taste creates instant emotional connection that photos and bios cannot.
- Music is the #1 topic in conversations between strangers getting acquainted (research from Message in a Ballad study)
- 45% of daters say bad music taste could be a dealbreaker (TickPick survey)
- Listening to music together increases dopamine, raises oxytocin, and lowers cortisol (cognitive research by Dr. Daniel Levitin)
