That's very simple...
a) Find good DJs playing music you like (YouTube is very helpful here, as is partying)
b) Listen to their sets
c) Shazam (or just trainspot) the tracks you like. (Shazam has a really nice integration with SPotify that dumps everything it IDs into a Spotify playlist)
I am a DJ and constantly on the hunt for new music, this is how I find most of it. No algorithms necessary!
- ebiester 2y agoThat only works for a subset of music. It works well for electronica. It works less well for singer songwriters.
- anigbrowl 2y agoBut there are so many channels that specialize in that sort of thing, NPR Tiny Desk being the most mainstream online curator. Also lyrics sites, if the singer-songwriter isn't completely marketing shy.
- freedomben 2y agoSorry for what's probably a stupid question, but how do you find DJs on Youtube? Do you literally just search for stuff like "Hard Rock DJ" and then start clicking through results?
- Ylpertnodi 2y agoIt's a limited field of one person, but John Peel (BBC dj) sure introduced me to so much. Never found anything like the show for making me realise how much music I was missing...so thought fuck it...can't listen to everything, so I won't bother trying. I write my own music for me. It's on a yt channel (no images), so if anyone does discover it all....it's yours. And everyone elses.
