curated playlists
Hand-picked song collections
Curated playlists are music compilations assembled by a person or algorithm rather than randomly generated.
The term emphasizes deliberate selection—someone has chosen these songs to work together, whether by mood, genre, activity, or theme.
Streaming services feature playlists curated by editors, artists, or users: I found a great curated playlist for studying.
