I go by mood. This personality makes it so that it takes forever to discover music that I haven't heard before.
Same, other downside of it is that YT music starts to recommend AI generated music at this point, cracked Spotify stopped working. While i might not recognize AI generated pictures, i can actually recognize AI generated music. It's like if I've heard one AI generated song per genre, I've heard them all.
That really bothered me, since I used to really like both lo-fi and techno, but at a certain point the "slick" background images and repetitive themes and motifs made me feel "wtf is this" and now it's cumbersome to find "hand written" gems. 😓
my terrible electronic music is all programmed by hand, sequenced and recorded live from hardware straight from the mixer to the sound card :) it's free range garbage ;) https://etherphon.bandcamp.com/
If that is so, please listed to a few songs by "Almost Vinyl" (releases on YT and Spotify) which are AI generated songs but not as slop but IMO more as an instrument in of itself.
Then there is also "There I ruined it". He does his own music parodies but applies a voice filter to sound like the actual artist he is performing as (Like Adele singing about the experiences after a hot TacoBell meal).
Would be curious if and how strong your senses react to it despite knowing it's AI (based).
Fair, it does seem to be a lot less noticable if at all for both channels. So probably just an issue with general slop/low quality content that YT music algorithm feeds.
Though as we are on lemmy, prepare to be shat on for even recommending that AI might be used for making something decent.
Same. The last few bands I've discovered (Sleep Token, Gelli Haha, ...well that's it actually) were from the music comms on beehaw and .world. Shout-out to c/ObscureMusic and c/AlbumArtworkHeaven. Some really good stuff on there but nothing that's really grabbed my ear so far.
Dude, Spotify has run out of good suggestions for me. I have added every single artist that it suggested, that I like. I'm more at the point where I need to start culling. 🫣 Cut the ones that don't make it above the fold.
my artists
my albums
Is... Is that it?
Yep.
I don't see how that quote is the cause for having such a tiny library. 😅 Maybe I'm misunderstanding it. Are you saying you are coming across a lot of music, and it's not good enough? It seems you are saying that your personality is the cause of the suggestion algorithm not showing you any new music anymore. I can't imagine I'm interpreting that correctly.
No no, I think it's a very vague quote/phrase. It probably also has to do with what platforms we use. Spotify is suggestion/playlist/radio centric, while Tidal doesn't shove unsolicited suggestions down my throat - of course, if receiving further suggestions is your cup of tea, then you don't have to phrase it negatively like I just did. Also, just to clarify, I'm not unhappy with the pace at which I discover music, since it gives me time to digest the purpose, message, intent and all other "metamusical" information surrounding each and every album. I read up on the artists, their personal lives, musical backgrounds and the stories behind the albums. I wouldn't be able to do that if I was discovering music at a faster pace, me being really slow at reading and emotional processing. 😅
Oh, I see better now. 😁 I get where you're coming from. 👍
Yeah, I'm more like "damn, this song slaps (in the moment)", [follow artist]. Then I have to listen more to realize I don't want to hear more. I kind of have to prove their guilt by listening more, so to speak. So now that there's barely any more to discover for me, I need to start making some heads roll. 😆
How about getting into music yourself? 😁 You play anything? 😊
Oh yeah, I love music. There's always some melody playing in my head.
I play the guitar, used to play drums, I dabbled shortly in piano. All self-taught except the drums when I was little and took drum classes with a teacher. I recently was gifted my aunt's clarinet that she says she hasn't used since she was young, so I'm curious to open that case eventually. 😅
What about you?
