How do you discover new music?

This is the place for readers of poetry. Discuss poetry and literary art. You can also discuss music here, including lyrics. Also, you can discuss poets themselves, in addition to poetry.

Both of my adult sons share their music discoveries with me. They both have great taste in music, and I end up adding more artists to my collection of favorites.

I discover new music by watching covers on YouTube and when I put a music Chanel on TV.

I don't actively search for new music. It's usually my friends who recommend music to me. And that's how I am able to discover new types of music lol. XD

Spotify enhance for playlists and radios from playlists I already have are the ways I find new music! Highly recommend!!

There was a music channel, MYX, that i used to watch when i was in high school that plays songs that topped the chart every week through text votes. The music video and the lyrics on the screen makes me understand the song better

I have a very specific type of sound i like when it comes to music. What I'll often do is scroll through pages on social media and find people with a cool voice. Once that is done, I'll search them up on youtube and randomly check out a song or two and see what i think

Pick a song you like then it generates an ongoing playlist of various songs it thinks you'll like. Some of which you may have heard before and some which may be entirely new to you but similar to your tastes.
Wow! I've never heard of this feature. I'll have to look into it

I tend to listen to my fave artists and know when they release music but I also think social media has really opened the door for hearing new artists and music.

I have telegram channels which suggest new music all the time. My friends have the biggest influence for my newer tastes.

When I want to discover new music I write a specific country in the search bar and after that, I just scroll through the results.
