If anyone is into indie rock, Americana, and country, I always check out the weekly recommendations and reviews in The Nashville Scene (your local weekly alternative would work, of course), and I subscribe to weekly newsletters from Grimey's New & Preloved Records, Third Man Records, Saving Country Music, the Americana Music Association, and New Releases Now. Local Nashville musician Aaron Lee Tasjan has great recommendations in his Twitter feed as well. I find that having descriptions and recommendations from people who spend their professional lives in music, or who promote in the genres I like, have good ideas.
Your method for discovering great music.
I'm in a slump. It has been a while since I've discovered new music that I really like. And when I say "new" I mean new to me. Maybe even rediscovered would count as new.
I do not have a method. I usually stumble into new music that I like. I also don't have loads of hours to sort through tons of stuff I don't like. Plus I find that random sort of pursuit to be frustrating and unrewarding most of the time.
Amazon Music had half decent 'recommended for you' lists but I don't recall if that ever paid off. I use Qobuz now which sucks in that particular department.
I've found a few bands that I like from recommendations here at Audiogon but I have not been here much lately.
So I'm curious as to how some of you approach that search for great music that is either actually new, new to you or rediscovered.
