Keep discovery fun and free with these ideas (always check licensing if you plan to reuse audio).
-
Radio-style web players — Genre stations introduce adjacent artists without effort.
-
User-curated playlist communities — Search by mood/BPM; save lists that match your taste.
-
Music subreddit threads — Weekly discovery posts surface hidden gems across genres.
-
Label samplers on video platforms — Many indie labels share full compilations.
-
Artist “similar to” pages — Click through discographies; you’ll find side projects and collabs.
-
Live session channels — Minimal-setup performance videos reveal raw versions you may prefer.
-
Weekly algorithm mixes — Treat them as auditions; remove noisy tracks, save the keepers.
Pro tip: Keep a “Maybe” playlist—drag new finds there. If you skip a track three times, delete it. Curation beats clutter.
