shreddit is a good choice for this job. There are others (can’t recall the names off the top of my head). If you are new to this sort of thing, be advised that you will be granting access to your account when you use these apps so remember to remove the access token when you are done. Of course, if you plan on deleting the account there is less of a concern here.

Thanks. I’ll bookmark that for later.

Yes, ListenBrainz takes AGES to figure out recommendations. I have scrobbles going back to 2006 and even when I imported them it still took weeks to suggest something. I too left Last.FM due to the proprietary nature. You might have to find a niche blog or something if you want to find more music.

Services like Last.FM and ListenBrainz will eventually give good recommendations. They need LOTS of listens to figure it out. Last.FM, before I stopped using it, was very accurate.

Now I just keep track of releases on Bandcamp, Resident Advisor, AOTY, etc. via RSS feeds.

What style of music do you listen to?

I group a bunch of RSS feeds into one megafeed. They are similar in a way and there is overlap. I might find one article that I understand or care to read a day, but they keep me up to date in a way.
