I want to get off spotify, but I want a way to discover new music, and be notified of new music from bands I listen to. I don’t want ads, and I’m fine with piracy so long it is a relatively painless experience. Something like stremio but for music.
My dream service would be one that could recommend music based on a given song, and provide details about the artist and things. And even better version would have an API I could tap into so I could connect the service to music assistant. Hell I’ll make a (mostly) locally hosted version of the spotify dj if I can.



This works great for jazz.
It’s works great for rock and synth as well, obviously i miss some stuff which is self published or big, and only algos will get there, but getting a lot of small bands for algos gives you such rich choice, when (i think) with bigger bands you get like normalized average taste with random quirks thrown in
