For system icons (folder, filetype, toolbar, menu, panel icons) you will need an icon theme that used SVG icons and supports HiDPI. Icon themes that support HiDPI will have@2x folders inside of them. Numix is a good example of this.

Icon pack is numix circle. get it from here : https://github.com/numixproject/numix-icon-theme

Spicetify-cli is another 3rd party option and is basically a mix of the two things above made solely for spotify. While also doing other things, it allows you to have the full functionality of the webnowplaying plugin discussed above with the spotify app - aka spotify becomes a fully supported player unlike how it is with just the nowplaying measure. This method requires spicetify and its own webnowplaying extension be installed and a skin that's coded to use the webnowplaying plugin. But, just like that plugin, this method comes with its own hassles, like the install and upkeep being a bit too complex for some users and, again, there's no guarantee on if/when it will be fixed if it breaks (which seems to happen every time spotify releases an app update). Spicetify, though many people will say otherwise because they don't understand all the details, is also not needed unless you specifically want more than what the nowplaying measure provides (aka: if you just want the titles and play/pause/etc, than you don't need spicetify). Lastly, for more on spicetify, please visit their community.
