Thread 127648910

The sources of new music for most of my posters are the usual suspects: pitchfork, fantano, rym, shills. So at the end isn't that new music is bad but that mu's SOURCES of new music sucks. And the clearest proofs of what I'm saying is that the threads of new music are always from those shitty sources.

Aside from manually mining Bandcamp and word of mouth, what else really is there?

Check date releases from discogs, Bandcamp, beat port, labels, social media. It's more about looking up by yourself instead of waiting to be spoonfed; john peel radio program had that role: it was uncompromised and covering different genres: rock steady, reggae, dub, techno, jungle, dubstep, grind core, crust punk, black metal, death metal, drum n bass, rap, dancehall, african music, Jap music, indian music, pre 50s music, post hardcore, indie...

one of the most depressing things ever. all those artists that'll never get the success they deserve

Personally I cross reference /mu/, youtube, spotify, bandcamp, rym, metal archives, a few reviewers I understand, and then I try out other reviewers periodically.

but i'm mostly looking for metal and world music

i realized this when i first browsed this board about 16 years ago

You get your recs from /mu/, I get my recs from autisticly detailing why I like a band, album, or song into chatGPT, having a few back and forths with it, and then telling it I'm looking for more music like it. We are not the same

elaborate?

RYM lists by people who don't have weird flags or Picrew avatars on their profiles are alright.

I just listen to SLAYER and call it a day cause I'm not a FAGGOT POSER LOSER, unlike you ALL.
