Thanks for the heads up, I’m in Denmark too. I tried your solution of adding the IP to /etc/hosts and it works. Will follow the issue in github to see if it gets solved. Thanks a lot!

In case it helps anyone else. @morphar 's temp solution until Spotify fixes the issue is the following (copied from his [comment](https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/issues/972#issuecomment-1059073001)).

> I just tried to force `ap-gew4.spotify.com` domain to point to the IP of [ap-gew1.spotify.com](http://ap-gew1.spotify.com), by setting this in /etc/hosts:

> 104.199.65.124 ap-gew4.spotify.com
