    If someone don’t know, it’s an album name, alternatively known with music-video movie “Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem”, basically a music-video for whole album, bit anime.

    Browsing the top 10 on sites like Redacted or Orpheus became my preferred way of discovering new music.

    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

      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.

        Sam Wilkes, who plays bass on many knower tracks is someone that keeps inspiring me since I first heard him. Check out his line on Scary pockets cover of Creep, so simple yet brings a grin on my face every time.

    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.
