Hey all, I'd like to distance myself from Spotify, but I really enjoy their discovery features. I've learned about a lot of bands both new and old that I wouldn't have otherwise. Do you have any suggestions for a service that could replace this aspect of it?

Search your favourite artists. Wiki them etc. and learn about them whilst simultaneously finding where they're members play in other bands or have other projects. Also, it can illuminate what they're influences were/are and you can listen to that too. I find a shit-tone of new music this way.

Deezer. Interface/UX is a little jank but it's private and discovery is good.

Radio Paradiso. Berlin based radio. Weird and wonderful.
