I’m ashamed that I’ve been using Spotify for years, but some of my favourite artists are ones that came from the generated playlists after the music I picked ran out. And not huge names or slop, but actual real independent “local” (from my country) artists.
In the last year or so I’ve found very little. I don’t know if that’s me getting more settled in my way, or if the algorithm is worse.
Part of the phenomenon was not trying to find new music, but just letting it play while I was doing something until something made me go “wait, who is that?”
