    God fucking same. It’s got to be hard as fuck because I haven’t seen anyone able to do it. Pandora used to claim they were trying to do that with their music genome project but they just kind of never went anywhere with it and it slowly morphed into a shitty hidden algorithm just like every other place. To be fair though I find people are also terrible at it. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve asked for recommendations for songs similar to one I really vibed with and the recs I get are literally nothing like the song. It’s especially bad in the various genres of techno. Recently I wanted a way to find acid techno, but like more acid, but there’s no words to describe that that will lead me to the music I’m looking for. Language sucks sometimes.
