Discovery, by Daft Punk (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
If someone don’t know, it’s an album name, alternatively known with music0video movie “Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem”, basically a music-video for whole album, bit anime.
I don’t talk to people I just grab my music straight from the game files and random youtube videos that I don’t use youtube but I randomly remember stuff sometimes or find out about something and use yt-dlp or just pipetube or whatever I have. and then use vlc or any random file player for that matter.

Alright… I guess it’s time for another one of my “I will listen to your song” posts
Here we go https://lemmy.world/post/50708959
EDIT: Just noticing plenty folks are sharing stuff in here anyway. Whoops. Egg meet face. =3
Browsing the top 10 on sites like Redacted or Orpheus became my preferred way of discovering new music.
If you like the Beatles and trippy/weird song lyrics, check out Klaatu
My playlist hasn’t been updated since the late 90s.
This has to do with the death of music journalism in general. A lot of curation function was done through magazines and online publications, many of which are now gone or much smaller than they used to be: Pitchfork, Paste, NME, Rolling Stone and so on. Now curation is done through niche influencers.
By the way I do some curation on Youtube with an emphasis on Austin based indie and folk music. You can check out my Youtube of live music videos:
Best music discovery I’ve had was a thread on the something awful forums maybe 2 decades ago. People would post their favorites or ones they wanted similar artists to, and folks would chime in with suggestions. I discovered so much music in that thread, stuff that has become my core favorites. I learned about Chromeo in that thread (back when Needy Girl was new) and they have been in my top 5 or 10 ever since.
I do enjoy the Apple Music suggestions, but finding new is so much slower and more hit or miss.
There should be a site for community driven music suggestions similar to that old thread. Especially nowadays when so much is independent and obscure.4
I have all my tv shows curated for me via tunblr gifsets
I’ve been finding new music as last year I discovered a group that shares 50 songs a year, that’s been running since 2009. I actually already knew about it as artists I already follow are involved with the group, I just somehow never connected the dots until recently. This shit is gonna last me ages
My bandcamp findings dump this year so far :3

My last Bandcamp Friday haul: -Fabiola Mendez -Pateka -Catpack -Work Money Death -Genevieve Artadi -Tres Leches (Hiatus Kaiyote) -Jazzbois -Manela
One of my favourite bands. Solo albums by Louis and Genevive (the duo behind Knower) are also fire. Knower - Knower forever
Love Louis Cole and everyone even remotely associated with him. Genevieve Artadi, Moonchild, Jacob Mann, Thundercat, Ben Wendel, MonoNeon… and then going from those guys also lead into a lot of other great music.
