    What do you recommend to me so I can easily download and discover music that’s not spotify. You hate them but it seems they’re the top of the game right now

      Bandcamp has recommendations

      Allmusic.com has “similar artists” and browse-by-genre and -style (and mood and theme etc)

      Everything you listen to on YouTube sends you down a new rabbithole

      Discogs.com has recommendations

      Allmusic is 100% my favorite place to find new recommendations. I get to actively hunt instead of being fed by an algorithm (though they have too many ads now).

      If you absolutely must be a $p0tify zombie who is mentally unable to find recommendations literally everywhere else in our music-obsessed world then you can still buy the albums you like to actually support the artists instead of basically pirating through a big tech app.
