TIL: Skip tracks while display is off

While listening to Spotify on my Samsung Note today I noticed I can go to the next track pushing the power button and volume down at the same time. Power an volume up goes to the last track.

Edit: As commentators mentioned: It's a functionality of Samsung's SoundAssistant that I a) didn't know and b) used incorrectly.

I'm stupid....
