I’ve been looking for a way to discover new music. Spotify used to be quite good, but now I feel like 10% of the stuff it recommends me is AI slop.

How do you navigate the music-scape?

    Oh wow, that’s something that’s been bothering me lately a lot. Not just avoiding Ai generated music but developing my own musical tastes and not having the algorythm-served taste that I mistook for my own.

    Here’s what I have learned so far:

    • I have switched from listening music on youtube to listening music on my Digital Audio Player aka good old mp3. It forces you to put your own music there instead of just letting it play.

    • I have installed the RSS reader and follow many German and English music magazine/websites and look there for what I could like

    • I have also started asking other people like friends and colleauges for recommendations. I have received many good recommendations, but I don’t have to like everything.

    I’m fully aware that it’s not a great solution, because it’s a technological step back instead of evolution, but the way music on youtube with ads worked lately has really started to annoy me.
