What kind of playlist is that ? A special one provided by Spotify itself ?

Spotify is being extra painful lately with blocking all kind of API access that was available to 3rd parties before and now they either changes some endpoints or just blocked them completely. We're investigating their latest pile of changes and what we can do to make the MA experience still somewhat useable but the future isn't looking very bright.
