- doublepg23 5y agoOne of the great lossless in recent history. The current torchbearers don’t live up to wcd - I assume streaming is to blame.
- radlad 5y agoRedacted does something similar.
- greggsy 5y agoTBH I blame the advent of streaming platforms, and the public’s acceptance of brainlessly following recommendations from algorithms. I’m sure that each of the big platforms - YT, Apple Music, Spotify and Tidal - have someone in their team who wants to implement this type of thing, but they’re probably drowned out by overbearing algo marketing types. They need to take a long hard look at the popularity of the rock family tree publications, or at least consider the type of traffic that whosampled.com gets from people going into a relational rabbit hole.
