If you're looking for work you should let people in without having to provide credentials that they may not have.

(ie. I'm hiring and would like to see this but don't have Spotify credentials)

That's pretty hard to do though: providing valid demo Spotify Premium details would be just the sort of breach of TOS that would cause spotify to come down on the site like a tonne of bricks; and non-real Spotify Premium details would be almost entirely pointless (the underlying library requires valid credentials to do anything).

It's not about the interface. It's about the technology behind it which can only be showcased by actually using it.
