I used to discover a lot of new music on Youtube, actually.
If you watched a music video you liked, the algorithm recommended related stuff, but also threw you a curveball with <1000 views once in a while.
I stumbled upon a lot of great bands that way.

But nowadays, 3 videos in it’ll all be AI slop, so I’m open to new ideas and willing to pay for a service, too.

    New Music Friday playlist was always OK by me, too. My rule was i could only skip it if I hated it, and if I liked it even a little bit, then i had to press the like button.

    I also have blended playlists set up with a couple of friends who like a variety of music and have what I consider to be good taste.

      Yes blended friends playlists are the best, discovered (or got access to?) that a while back and have been loving it!
