I wonder if theres a service that allows me to send my last.fm or listenbrainz profile to be scanned and tell it to recommend stuff from a certain time period. The last.fm and listenbrainz recommend system is awful. They operate on the level of "oh you listened to this one Finnish artist, here's ten Finnish artists but from genres that you have literally never played at all, enjoy!"

Anyway, I'm glad you found good stuff :) I'll see if I can trick youtube to give me recommends, maybe if I make a playlist, play it through a few times, it'll give me something lol

    I mean, there's Libre-fm, but it doesn't seem too active in development. Idk how good its recommendations are.

    Yeah I have that one as well but its pretty spartan. To be honest, I haven't even logged in like a year. I've been using last.fm since 2005, listenbrainz since a few months ago but it had a thing that imported all my scrobbles from last.fm. Listenbrainz (and musicbrainz) is a cool project and I'm looking forward to what they come up with in the future. Last.fm is great as well, especially since they got back to independent recently. Both are cool in their own ways, so I'm gonna stick to them, just wished their recommend system was better.

    Frankly, for myself I'm mostly using Bandcamp's and YouTube's recommendations, and also often posts from a local Facebook-like social network, by genre — which are mostly reposts from Bandcamp, but nicely curated.
