I let YouTube’s algorithm make me discover bands then listen to their albums

I watch a new anime and the op/ed is a banger

Honestly I mostly pull from the soundtracks in whatever I watch. Also Eurovision.

Start with an artist I already like, find out who inspired them and who they inspired, listen to them, repeat

Found a good blog called Hearing Things been a couple of good things off that.

And KEXP!! Radio out of Seattle, has an app too.

I buy music on bandcamp. I check out other suggested artists from the music I’ve bought on bandcamp. I check out bandcamp dailys. I read a couple of music blogs. I look into artists who are touring with artists I already like. I look into the record labels of artists I like. That sort of stuff.

Spotify radio mode

Year-end best of lists. Allmusic, pitchfork, and whatever other sites come out with best of year rankings.

Oh, since it’s on topic, can you fellow lemmings recommend some music for me?

I listen to the playlists Apple Music makes me each week. Discovered tons of stuff

Stream online from various college music stations. Some even have themed shows so you can tune in for stuff that’s your style.

Also, consider making a thread here about the genre you are looking for. I’ve participated in a couple here I think.

Edit: I went through my comment history so you don’t have to go through that awful garbage to find what you’re looking for.

Dreamy song request thread

Last song you replayed thread

Don’t be afraid to make your own. Peace.

Nts.live Internet Radio made by music nerds and I love it

College radio

checking out random stuff I see on Rate Your Music or going to shows at small local venues.

I started a Facebook group called New Music Only. Nothing older than a fortnight is allowed. It allows others to share brand new music they haye found and it forced me to go to YouTube and start hunting for recently uploaded music so I can supply material for the group.
