If recommendations are what you want, I'd honestly look at getting an account with Rate Your Music if you haven't already and populating ratings with music you love and hate. Yes, the community can be very snobby and cynical at times and the site is slow-updating, but at the same time I've gotten some great recommendations, both from the community and the site's algorithms, while streaming can be very hit or miss. There's no app, but at the same time your recommendations aren't tied to one streaming service, so you can use any service that fits your needs or sail the seas while still getting good recommendations.
RYM has two algorithms to help you find some interesting music, based on finding highly rated music and your taste in genres and descriptors: there's one that recommends music it thinks you'll like, and another that's the opposite of your music taste, to challenge you to get you out your comfort zone. I have found stuff I've loved in both. Paid supporters (iirc monthly is £2 while a year is roughly £20 depending on currency conversion) do get access to tweaking the algorithm to fit their needs, as well as visual access to the data that fuels your recommendations, but I don't mind paying for it over Spotify/AM. Might be worth having a look.
