For discovering music I recommend Rate Your Music. You don't need an account, just go to the "charts" page and you can search by any genre (really, any!), country of artist or reviewers, by top rating or "esoteric" rating, etc.
The site is also getting an overhaul with a new name in April which will have even more powerful searches.

- sotojuan 11y agoIf you meant a link to information about the new site, go here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/sonemic-cinemos-glitchwave https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/sonemic-cinemos-glitchwav... If you meant the place where you find music in RYM, here: https://rateyourmusic.com/customchart https://rateyourmusic.com/customchart I would say that another good place to find music is user lists. For example, here's one of non-Anglo pre-WWII music: http://rateyourmusic.com/list/uaxuctum/pre_ww2_music_from_outside_the_anglosphere/ http://rateyourmusic.com/list/uaxuctum/pre_ww2_music_from_ou...
- alexisnorman 11y agoThis has been by favorite way of researching new music for quite a while. I'll usually start with an album I really enjoy and then read reviews or checkout lists with that album included to find similar (and sometimes totally different!) albums and artists. I know a lot of people who praise discogs.com but RYM deserves way more credit.
- sotojuan 11y agoYep. RYM has over ten years of user contributions. It's a disgusting mess of PHP with no API, but it works. The new rewrite will have an API, though I am not sure what the stack will be.
