I listened to a lot of Apple Music recommendations while getting my three kids to sleep over the years. I would say that in my 40s I’m discovering more new music, and music I genuinely love, than I did in all my teens. I don’t get to go to a lot of gigs, but I go to one big festival a year and it’s the bands in a tiny font that I get excited about. Yeah most stuff is shit, but there’s just so much of everything.
- dools 2y agoYeah I'm more open minded now than I was when I was younger. All my taste seems to stem from the same roots (for example I like a wide variety of electronic music but the common thread is sounds and/or harmonies rooted in funk/soul/jazz/blues) but when I was a teenager I was only interested in rap music.
- karl_gluck 2y agoAny recommendations?
- Liquix 2y agowant electronic jazz? check out cumulus frisbee or more electro funk with a gangster twist? vincent antone is superb
- dools 2y agoDigging these! I will trade you one cumulus frisbee for one soul supreme. And in exchange for Vincent Antone, I will trade you one Chromeo
- dools 2y agoRecommendations on rap music or electronic music? Or funk/soul/jazz/blues?
- pcdoodle 2y agoI got stuck with apple music on a road trip. It was really bad IMO.
- marcellus23 2y agoymmv. It works great for me. Especially the new discover radio.
- acdha 2y agoWhat were you trying to do? After Rdio folded, I switched from Spotify after failing to get it to give me anything other than top 40 pop (no matter what I started with, it was two tracks and then “have you tried our top hits? You will!”). Apple Music wasn’t as good as Rdio back then but it’s gotten better even within relatively obscure sub genres in my experience.
