Thank you for sharing this! Looking forward to try it, seems like an interesting idea. My strategy on bandcamp is conceptually similar, albeit manually.

- l72 2y agoBandcamp is my primary place for learning about new music. I find following small labels that specialize in a genre to be ideal. Unfortunately, bandcamp doesn't do a great job in helping me keep track of everything, so this is what I do: 1. Bandcamp doesn't have RSS, but I take all the incoming emails and convert them to RSS[1]. I separate out new messages vs new releases. I host my own RSS with FreshRSS. 2. I wrote an app (Camp Counselor [2]) to help manage your Bandcamp wishlist. You can organize, rate, and comment (privately) on your wishlist, along with play directly in the app. I find that my wishlist (which has a few thousand albums on it) is more of a "to do" list. If I get a recommendation, I just add it to my wishlist and will check it out later. Even stuff I don't like stays in my wishlist (with a low rating), to help me remember. I then sort by rating or added at dates, and as I purchase things, they move off my wishlist into my purchase list. This generally works really well for me, and I continue to explore lots of new and great music every day!
