Is this just a Spotify Wrapped clone?

No — Wrapped is once a year and Spotify controls what it says. This is your extended history feeding a memory tool you own, so your Konshus can reference your actual listening across years, not a marketing recap.

Which export do I request from Spotify?

The Extended streaming history option — not the smaller 'Account data' box. It arrives up to 30 days later and covers your full listening record.

Do you upload every play?

No. Konshus parses in your browser and uploads monthly summaries (top artists, top tracks, repeat-play streaks). The 400k-line raw JSON never leaves your machine.

What if my taste has changed dramatically?

That's the interesting part. Year-over-year shifts show up as first-class atoms — 'in 2022 you rotated through 40 artists per month; in 2024 you rotate through 6' is often more revealing than the artists themselves.

What Your Top 5 Artists Per Year Says About You

Ask a stranger to describe you in five sentences and they'll grasp for adjectives. Show them your top 5 artists per year for the last decade and they'll know more than any adjective could carry.

Why listening data is different

Almost every dataset about you is filtered through a version of you that knew it was being observed. Search queries you cleaned up mid-typing. Emails you rewrote. Even journal entries are a performance — you're writing to a future reader, even if that reader is only future-you.

Listening data isn't performed. You put on the song because you wanted the song. Repeat plays are the most honest signal a piece of consumer software captures.

Get the extended history

Spotify offers two exports and only one is worth requesting:

Account data — the small one. Playlists, follow list, a month of history. Skip.
Extended streaming history — every stream, from account creation. Takes up to 30 days to arrive. Do this one.

Request at spotify.com/account/privacy. Extended history arrives as a ZIP of JSON files. It's often 100–400MB — not because there's a lot of metadata but because there's a lot of you.

Never lose your AI again

Konshus is one way to solve this — a persistent memory vault and portable persona that follows you across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and whatever ships next.

What matters (and what doesn't)

Individual plays are noise. Monthly summaries are signal. In Konshus we aggregate to:

Top artist per month.
Top 5 tracks per month.
Repeat streaks — the same song 10+ times in a week is memory the way a diary entry is memory.
Genre drift — the shape of taste changing over years.

Nobody needs to remember that you played "Landslide" on a Tuesday. Everybody wants to remember that "Landslide" was the song they replayed the month their dad got sick.

Getting started

Spotify parser is on the Wave B roadmap — join the waitlist at /vault/import/spotify. When it ships, drop the ZIP. Aggregation runs in your browser; only monthly rows upload. The 400k-line JSON stays with you.

Your soundtrack is memory. Bring it in.

Ten years of taste, aggregated into memory your Konshus can reference. Nothing performative — just what you actually played.
