What's an alternative to Spotify that doesn't play you the same fucking songs over and over? (self.asklemmy)

I am in an intense love-hate relationship with Spotify. It makes good mixes for me, I have found a lot of great bands that way. BUT IT KEEPS REGURGITATING THE SAME SONGS IN THERE. I know about Song Radios and Artist Radios, so please don't recommend those. Smart Shuttle doesn't cut it, either.

The best thing would be several randomness sliders. One for randomness in bands, the other for randnomness of their songs, one for genres. Please tell me some music service has implemented something like that. I am dying over here.

Yeah but I'd forget and end up with dozens of the same song named slightly different in the same folder :-D

But you're right, if I can't lay my hands on a soft letting me "tag" music correly I'll just chuck stuff in the correct bins (folders).

But I think I'll keep the original albums intact, so I can redo mixes and so.

Ah, that's why I search before I download anything 🤣. Plus, I got a good memeory (only regarding songs for some reason 🤔 😂), so I rarely end up with dups.

And I do tag them after I download them... well, retag them, they've already been tagged by whoever 😂.
