To commemorate this, Spotify has officially opened up its studio in Stockholm, Sweden, to artists from all over Europe. First opened back in 2018, the Stockholm Studio has previously only hosted Nordic artists but is now open for artists across the continent.
The first artist to record in the studio was Damiano David, who created a cover of Mark Ronson and Miley Cyrus’ Nothing Breaks Like A Heart. It was released on the platform earlier this month.

“We are thrilled to have reached the 10 billion stream milestone for Spotify Singles,” says Bryan Johnson, International Head of Artist and Industry Partnerships at Spotify. Since 2016, the program has been an outlet for hundreds of artists to express themselves, engage their fans with new music, and connect with new listeners around the world.”
“By opening up our award-winning Stockholm studio to artists, including emerging artists from all over Europe, we plan to enable even more beneficiaries of the program, while encouraging new opportunities for creative collaboration.”
Federica Tremolada, General Manager Europe at Spotify, adds: “We’re absolutely thrilled to announce the reopening of our Stockholm Studio, where it all began for us. This isn’t just about having another recording space; it’s a symbol of our dedication to the rich tapestry of creative diversity and the spirit of collaboration that thrives across Europe.
“We believe that these values are the engines of economic growth, social unity, and cultural exchange. By opening up our Stockholm studio to artists all over Europe – commemorating our 10 billion stream milestone – we’re reaffirming Spotify’s enduring commitment to nurturing talent from Europe and beyond, giving artists the power to make a living from their art and share it with the world.”
