A long time ago, before Spotify had support for multiple devices where one could act as a remote and control the other, I wrote a tool called Shpotify: https://github.com/hnarayanan/shpotify . It is a simple Bash/AppleScript.

The primary usecase for me was to SSH tunnel into a media centre Mac in my living room and control music on Spotify. I released it on GitHub and it has grown a lot in popularity amongst people who like to do a lot of their computing in the shell.




I use Shpotify to shuffle and play a playlist of eurotrash/techno during especially long builds. Pretty nifty thing you made!


You're very welcome.
