Getting back to the REALLY old original direction of this thread (remember how this started, as a "radio sucks, how do y'all find music" thread) - one interesting way I've been exploring lately for finding new music is Every Noise at Once. It's the spotify genre distinctions all mapped out, and there is a ton here. You can look to see what genres they use to classify your favorite artists to see who else they put in that bucket, you could look at a genre itself, you can find playlists (through some of the offshoot websites) based on what people are listening to in certain cities, genres based on locations, schools, sound based genres, mixes, etc.
I have mixed feelings about genre classifications. They're always weird and arbitrary and often inaccurate or unhelpful. Sometimes they conflate things that aren't what I'm most interested (or disinterested) in. It looks like a lot of these are regional or topical as much as they are about the sounds or styles of the music. They're also sooooooo niche these days in service of the algorithms (and the sheer amount of music available) that it's almost comical (some of these, come on - "stomp and flutter" is one I actually like, but what a silly name). But this is an interesting way to sort of browse around and see what's out there (just like we used to maybe flip through the cds in the rock/rap/pop/ccm bins at an actual record store).
People listen to music in lots of different ways (and find music in lots of different ways). I think that's kind of cool. Lotta nerds around here that get into data and hair-splitting and over-categorizing things, so maybe some of y'all will also enjoy poking around on these sites. If so - enjoy!
I actually ended up finding this because (based on the ways I already listened to music) I always end up with what seems like a crazy number of genres on my spotify wrapped reports every year, even before I was sampling lots of styles on purpose and one year I googled around to see how there could even be that many genres (because I couldn't imagine how there were so many, much less that I'd listened to them). Found an interview with the guy in charge of this and started looking around over time.
looks like someone finally uploaded the original to youtube a few months after i posted this.
