I listen to music 3-6 hours a day and am the type of person who doesn’t enjoy hearing the same song the same day or really the day after. Sites I’ve used for discovering new music were reddit and rateyourmusic.com.
Beyond that I do use Spotify song radios, but typically the song has to be far outside my standard genres to show me new music.
Whatdo others use to discover new music?
yeah, Spotify really thinks you wanna hear the same dozen or songs on a loop. I’d love it if I could “pause” a song and keep it out of rotation for a few weeks. The AI DJ is very occasionally helpful - in between sets of the usual he’ll blast you with something out of left field.
I find it’s more useful to look at artist playlists on spotify - see what they are inspired by. As long as the band’s not too big, then it’s more what their label wants to push.
I also use Bandcamp #discover where you can browse by tags - which seems kinda oldschool now. But so far works great for me
