Conclusion

Mix recording will not work when you use tracks from Spotify directly, due to licensing agreements. This is because that recording a mix disables the Spotify tab and using Spotify disables the mix recorder. However, ViWizard can help you save Spotify music for mixing on djay Pro directly. Now, though, that's no longer the case.

What's more, keep Spotify music forever for mixing again and again even though you stop the Spotify service. You could also transfer Spotify music from your computer to your mobile device. After transferring, you can automatically play it with djay for Android or iOS. So, if you are looking to play songs from Spotify within djay Pro, just have a try and you'll find it out.
