Do recommend songs for an excluded playlist affect taste profile?

[LouisScott]

Do recommend/suggested songs that appear at the bottom of a playlist affect your taste profile, if the playlist itself is excluded from your taste profile?

I have a instrumental playlist for work/focusing that I have excluded, and want to add more songs to from the suggestions, but I don't want these to affect my taste profile/discover weekly/release radar.

Hi there @LouisScott,

Thanks for the post.

Newly added songs to that playlist from the suggested section might influence your music recommendations. 

The best way to avoid that is to switch on Private Session whenever you're listening to your work related music. This way none of the songs you listen to or add to playlists will influence your algorithm.

Hope this helps.
