Spotify just got a major redesign and it looks fantastic.

The new design, which rolls out Wednesday for the desktop player, web player and iPhone app, features a new dark color scheme, new fonts and icons and creates a more consistent look and feel across platforms.

One of the major focal points of the redesign is around content and discoverability. The dark theme — which is similar to Beats Music — was specifically chosen to make content really "pop" within the app and to put cover art and other iconography front and center.

Beyond just making content pop, Spotify now makes it easier for users to manage and browse their actual music collection. In the past, to add an album or song to your Spotify account, you needed it needed to be starred or belong to a specific playlist. As a result, people such as myself wound up with literally hundreds of playlists of favorite albums.

Back in December 2012, Spotify previewed some of its planned new features, which included the ability to add albums to a more centralized "collection." That feature is now baked into the new Spotify. Albums, songs and artists can be added to a collection without the need for a specific playlist.

This is a feature Rdio has had from the beginning and we're thrilled Spotify is finally on-board.

I've been using beta versions of the new desktop app for several months and love the new font, darker theme and increased focus on discoverability.

The new Spotify desktop app is available now and Spotify for iPhone has received an update in the App Store.
