Google Play Music is the default music player on the Samsung Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8+, and now the platform has launched a brand new feature exclusive to the handsets.

As Android Authority discovered, Google Play Music now features a “New Release Radio” playlist, which is apparently similar to Spotify’s “Release Radar.” With it, users will be able to discover new music on a regular basis, which is cultivated based on the user’s listening history. The new playlist will be updated on a daily basis.

There is no word on whether or not the feature will find its way to the broader Google Play Music subscriber base, so for now if you want the new daily refresh you’ll need to switch over to a Galaxy S8 if you haven’t already.
