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?

I guess im lucky in that my taste is with older music. I had a friend whos main hobby was going to bars with bands playing and that is how bands got their start in the past. If you don't live near a large metro you can check who is playing at various big city venues and then look around at what their music is like.
