Best way to discover new music?
Hello,
As the title suggests, what is the best way to discover new music. I am currently finding myself listening to the same music over and over again, and I'm desperately wanting something new. Help moi please! |

Itunes genius?
buy magazines that specialise in music you like listen to radio shows that play new music (try 6music) go out and see bands you've never heard of check reviews on online sites go downloadtastic and try out new genres |

This forum's a good place to start, I'd say. Just look through some of the recommendations threads and you're bound to find something.
![]() Other than that I'd recommend Last Fm - it's a bit tricky to use at first but it is really useful if you wanna find artists that are similar to the artists you listen to. |

I'd also recommend Pitchforkmedia.com, I think they still have a download section. |

As other people have said this forum is a great place to discover not just "New" music but music that may be "New" to you.
If you see a link on here to a song by a certain artist on Youtube and you like the sound of it, search Youtube for more from that artist. Another great way I found of discovering music with Youtube is by checking out fan music video's of my favourite TV shows and computer games. Again as someone else suggested you should listen to a radio station like 6 Music or Radio 1 after 7pm. |
