If you select an obscure artist in spotify, the group of people that listen to those might have a few more obscure artists in common. That has worked for me a few times where I go down a rabbit hole of some pretty obscure stuff that is all connected somehow. I have a few things I discovered this way that didn't have more than a few hundred listens. But you are right that none of this stuff is perfect.
