Where the fuck do you find out about new music? I used to use pitchfork but after years of steadily getting worse and worse they are now officially pure toilet and I need a replacement.
I'm not interested in crawling through a dozen shitty blogs, just one site I can check every now and then for new music recs.
WHAT DO YOU USE??
Grayson Roberts
Rym new release list Rym album of the year chart Albumoftheyear.org new release list Google "bandcamp releases 'date'"
Andrew Morgan
rym
Alexander Rodriguez
be oldschool and check out other artists from labels of an artist you like
Liam Ortiz
Watch interviews of artists you already like, see who they mention and what said. It's more direct and legit than finding other people on the internet who just talk about shit and do nothing else.
Adam Miller
OP here
RYM is great but a lot of good stuff is overlooked on their lists.
Ian Morris
Unironically youtube recs
Wyatt Martin
For example?
Parker Harris
Just from this year, some of my favorite albums- Thundercat, Visible Cloaks, Mac Demarco, Bing and Ruth, Kelly Lee Owens- are all outside of the top 100.
Luis Rogers
>top 100 Wut, it goes to 1,000 and then ones that aren't there can still be found in genre charts.
Dylan Ward
Some pretty heavy digits you're dropping
Oliver Brown
Tiny mix tapes, Amoeba and BBC residency Theres definitely some better ways, but I find these are efficient enough for now
Adrian Parker
>tiny mix tapes this desu
Adrian Thompson
Sharethreads Fantano (so that I know what new stuff is out) Bandcamp Youtube sometimes
David Smith
Go on wikipedia
Ian Jackson
already listened to it all, and have to be honest, not a fan.
Evan Gutierrez
>Wiki >New music Huh?
John Reed
2018 in music 2018 albums
Evan Adams
kinda funny
Asher Lopez
That's literally the trashcan of information
Christian Kelly
rym for sure, it automatically recs you stuff so digging thru an obscure genre is really easy
Caleb Wood
Nme and iHeartRadio
Henry Flores
Last.fm recs, specific rym charts, metacritic new release list, bandcamp new releases.
Before people give me shit for metacritic, my method for using that site is I will either use it to find new releases for artists I already know, or if I find a band/album name that sounfs interesting ill look up a song by them and if I like it I'll download it
Anthony Powell
This. Also occasionally allmusic and metallum
Jaxson Torres
Oh yeah metallum too good call. I wish I could use the allmusic new release list but its absolutely flooded with literally every single new edition.
Isaiah Morales
this, discogs + finding out what music influenced my fav artists
Parker Green
Usually from last fm and spotify recs
Aiden Powell
unironically unironically this also discogs for specific label/genre releases
Joshua Lee
Rough Trade
David Collins
Yeah I'm consistently impressed with the mixes that spotify plays after my album is over.
Gabriel Long
Fantano also
Kevin Taylor
unironically spotify
their algorithm for discovery coupled with search keywords make finding new music so pz a normie could do it
adblock the wrb player n ur set
Josiah King
discogs, youtube recs and talking to people.
Carter Gonzalez
what year did pitchfork go to shit? What's the cutoff point where I can safely ignore their lists?
Lincoln Moore
I use Spotify. Start at an artist that I like then I get drunk and get lost by clicking on related artists related artists until I find something new. Either that or I will just look up a band that I all ready like and learn who they tour with.
Parker James
melon man
Jaxson Long
I think a good indicator is when they started to suck off kanye when yeezus was released. so 2012/2013.
Kayden Wood
Is that even a question? You have the fucking internet, everything is on your hands so pick and choose. Easy as fuck.
