Is there a way to listen to Spotify with the screen of the SP3 blocked?

[Windows Central Question]

Surface pro 3 and Spotify

Is there any way to listen spotify with the screen of the SP3 blocked? I can't understand how the lumia can do it and I can't do it with the SP3 even not when plug it.
If it is suposed to be a laptop every laptop solves that perfectly.

I mean, when you stop using a laptop the screen turns black. If I press the top button of the SP3 it goes to sleep. If you don't press it, it plays music until the screen turns black. (suspension mode). That's what I mean with blocked screen

I want to use spotify in the background without having the screen ALWAYS switched on.
