Given we all live in a decidedly niche music sphere, I thought it might be helpful if we share our tips/tricks for finding new artists. Here's my tried and true: everynoise.com

The link doesn't work for me, is it the same as everynoise.com?

I've been mostly using Spotify and some Dutch review sites. I still have a Last.fm account but don't use it much anymore, Spotify has mostly replaced it.

I'm considering switching back to Spotify for just that reason. I jumped over to Tidal a few years back as they pay artists more, but their recommendation algorithms are garbage in comparison.

Huh, never heard of everynoise, seems cool but a bit weird considering it just gives you like 200 names

IIRC, there's some sort of algorithm working under the hood that procedurally generates genres/categories. I could be wrong though, it's been a really long time since I read into it.
