- Choose some favorites on Tidal and let Tidal's radio take over when my selections are finished. I write down the names of the artists/songs I like,
- Just added Qobuz, which opened up a new library of music
- My neighbor is in a blues band so I listen to their gigs or practices occasionally and write down selections that I enjoy but have not heard
- Listen to Sirius XM in my vehicle and occasionally hear new music on BB King's Blues, Lithium, or one of the other stations
- Suggestions from posts here on Audiogon and suggestions by my friends
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.
