Youtube ? I get recommended to new artists all the time even when not watching a music video, but following showcase channel grants better results I think (Tiny Desk, Audiotree, First Take just to name a few)
Most of my tracks have been collected over time, through various different methods. Most recently I’ve been buying digital copies of albums I like when streamed (usually YouTube Music provides a nice way to sample them this way).
However some artists spend their entire careers trying to remove a rib, yet their music sounds good so I usually Torrent those.
No-no, I’m not asking about how you get the files, I’m asking about how you find new music (e.g. a song of an artist you don’t know that is similar to the ones you listen to, or a new album of one of the bands you like).
Same here!! Been absolutely fantastic so far. Although I have to remake my playlists, totally worth it considering Spotify is only getting worse and worse each year. Discovered late last night that Navidrome supports smart playlists, so will play around a little with that.
Thought I’d make a Lemmy post about the whole transition when I’m completely done migrating 😊
I’m a bit busy to post about the transition myself, though I’ll definitely upvote yours when I see it in the feed :)
I like that some apps provide different things, like Tempo straight away gave me a page where I could select by genre and so on. It’s great having this freedom.
Last week I set up Navidrome on my PC, and connect to it with an app (Tempo) on my phone.
It’s like having my own Spotify. Snappier too.
How do you find new music? (if you do)
