- A lot of music I find anymore comes from me either finding a CD at a thrift store or a second hand local record shop that has tons of CDs. Has to look good to me at the moment.
- The algorithm that I tend to hate on yt has also brought me some random songs that I ended up listening to that I like. There ain't no way I would have naturally found a certain furry song I really like, considering it's all in Vietnamese, without the evil algorithm. Last I checked, I never talk about Vietnam unless they're in the news that very rare time where I live, don't know the language, etc. So the algorithm just pulled that my furry account must want it because furry.
- If I like a song from someone, mainly referring to things like vocaloid and utau type songs, there's a good chance I will eventually check out other songs from that person. VocaDB is pretty good for that if they don't have a yt page considering even if they don't have one, somebody else has probably already uploaded it to yt at some point. I can just look at a certain producers page and hope their song list is up to date or complete in the case of people who ain't making vocaloid/utau/whatever music anymore.
- Back on the topic of vocaloid/utau, I tend to be more likely to check out a song in the suggestion section of yt when listening to a song of this genre. Has found me some good songs.
- Okay, final thing about vocaloid. I have found a few different songs I've never heard of that I end up really liking thanks to the Project Diva series and back when I played the Project Sekai mobile game. So checking licensed rhythm games is always a good option, I guess.
