Sorry to hijack this a bit but I am also wondering what services people use? I am pretty terrible at finding music and listen to the same stuff over and over. I am deep in the Apple ecosystem so I bought a year of Apple Music. They recommend the same playlists every damn day. I keep trying to select different artists and say I “love” songs to build up my profile, but it is the same recommendations every day???
Depending on what you listen to, both can be a way of finding new music.
Outside of the fact that Tool isn't on there everything else is...
I coach hockey and we let the kids pick songs before each game. I love apple music because we have found everything from 'its raining tacos' to 'no money'
While I do not smoke MJ, I am "inhaling" a lot of the stoner music genre. Many of it is instrument which I dig. There are some great youtube channels that specifically post music from these types of bands from all over the world.
Here's one TUBER

No one read all of this.
Thanks for listing this. Perhaps I’ll start researching these
Phonte
Skyzoo
Prhyme 2
Royce 5’9”
Planet Asia
Roc Marciano
The Main Ingredient
Patrice Rushen
Woody Shaw - For Sure
Bobby Lyle - New Warrior
But really, KOD is really good and 'This is America' has become a talking point from NPR to my classroom.
There is some good music out there right now...
My son is on a weird Al kick. Which is pretty cool cause it takes me back to my youth.

The phryme album and Royce solo albums were big dissapointments to me. I was looking forward to Phryme 2 because dj premier is one of the best to do it, but like 95% of hip hop nowadays, it just bores me and the beats were not great. J cole’s album is decent, but it bores me to death too. He is the Golf of hip hop, always seems to put me to sleep. The new Czarface is really good, the God Fahim is nice with it. Mostly I’ve been dusting off the classic hip hop. Really anything from 94 can be played and I’ll be happy. I just heard Nas Illmatic performed with the national symphony orchestra. That is easily the best shit out right now, especially in hip hop.
Above & Beyond. Enough said.
Brian Fallon - Sleepwalkers.
I'm not the only one!
Jeff wtf is this shit.
Head singer of Gaslight went solo. Great album.
Arctic Monkeys
Alina Baraz
Mount Kimbie
Steven Wilson and Rival Sons heavy in the rotation
CDs:
Unpeeled
Tell Me I'm Pretty
Saw them at Lollapalooza last August & I'm still finding something new in their music.
Always old-school death metal. Give me some Autopsy, Demilich, Morbid Angel, Massacra... the list goes on and on. There were so many good bands in the late 80's/early 90's that, if you ask me, are timeless.
Propaghandi, the Lawrence Arms and Dillinger Four. If you want to listen to a song about how much of a dipshit Don Cherry of hockey night in Canada is, listen to Dear Coach’s Corner and read the lyrics.
Omer Avital...album Qantar
James Comey. I don't listen to music as much anymore but occassionally I'll hear something that I like. Rod Stewart's version of "I'm losing you" comes to mind
Lots of David Bowie after visiting the "David Bowie Is" memorial/experience. Relevent lyric for Michigan fans:
"Planet Earth is blue, and there's nothing I can do . . . "
Funkadelic, Catalyst, Ceasar Frazier.
Waiting for Columbus.

And anything by Reddish Blu
and semi drunk
Add Violence & Not The Actual Events
I don’t think Steven Wilson’s ‘To The Bone’ has exited my rotation yet since it was released in August 2017. Other than that, been listening to a ton of stuff in the Wayfaring Strangers series on vinyl. Anyone else dig those?
On Spotify.
Soul Town on Sirius. Classic R&B and Motown.
I’m a fan of Royce’s old stuff, but he’s fallen off since. Too many references to Jay-Z and Nas and it seems like he’s always reaching on punchlines.
Listening to anything produced by Apollo Brown. Anything with Oddisee. Then all the older underground/alternative Hip Hop. Little Brother, Slum Village, The Roots, The Left, All West Coast 90’s and East Coast 90’s. Kanye before he got weird. Anything during the 2000s Neo Soul era of Hip Hop.
The new Parquet Courts' album "Wide Awake!" is a brilliant album.
