All Spotify songs are encoded in a special OGG Vorbis format which can only be playable on the Spotify music player. Even if you've subscribed to a Premium account and are able to download Spotify songs, all the downloaded songs are only cache files. However, rekordbox supported audio formats are only MP3, AAC, and AIFF, according to its official document. In other words, you can't use Spotify songs on rekordbox for mixing directly.
