How did you find the music you listen to now?

[Acrellux]

Hey everyone, today, and forever, I will be wondering how you found the music you listen to now!

I listen to riddim, so my history is pretty long. Let's go!
About three years ago, I was listening to the radio and Promise Me popped up. I loved, and I mean LOVED the chorus. You could actually call it a drop, because of how electronic it was.
So I got into Electro, with the help of Geometry Dash about half a year later. In the beginning of 2020 when Corona wasn't around, I began listening to music with Amazon Music.
I was introduced to Sellout by Marshmello, Ernstig by Spag Heddy, then stuff from Marshmello, like Alone, and then Monstercat opened up to me. I heard Work by Bossfight and Stonebank's Drop It Low. Colbreakz's 50.000. And then, I was suddenly introduced to trap. I heard Svrrender by SVDDEN DEATH and Salad Dressing by Bogore.
And then my first actual riddim song ever was introduced to me through The Dub Rebellion: Skitzo by Enigma Dubz. After that I soon was exposed to Disciple's producers, Hi I'm Ghost, Spag Heddy, and recently Papa Khan whose music I enjoy tons.
In midsummer of this year I switched over to Spotify since my Unlimited trial had ended on Amazon Music and Amazon Music deleted ALL of my songs from the server. Since I have a Kindle I'm able to listen like I have Premium!

That's my story, what about you? :3

i have a playlist on spotify with only one song, and once i finish playing that song, it'll play another song but since i dont have any more, it'll suggest me new songs which is where i find some of my songs lol

Right now, I'm listening to literally one song on repeat because it's new to me lol and I got to make sure I appreciate all of its excellence.

I found it through the radio

SONG: Heaven - Los Lonely Boys

Basically Juice WRLD and XXX blew up after they died so thats how I got into American hiphop. I expanded from there on

 

[abbie<3]

i found a few songs i liked from a friends playlist. on spotify (idk if it’s on other platforms) you can listen to “song radios” which is just songs similar to that song. so i kinda just keep listening to similar songs

I rely on spotify a lot, I usually listen to one or two full daily mixes each day, which mix I go for depends on my mood at the time, and of course release radar and discover weekly are great too. if you want a way to get high quality recommendations, i highly recommend last.fm. my friends and siblings also have v good tastes in music

A few years ago, one of my friends suggested a song by Florence + The Machine, which was Dog Days Are Over.. It was the first ever indie song I listened to and I fell in love with it. After that I think I found artists like MARINA (Marina and the diamonds) and somehow found panic at the disco, then twenty one pilots. I liked them for a really really long time, but eventually I found a song by Wallows recommended to me on youtube - These days. After a while I looked at more of their music and fell in love with it. From Wallows I've found heaps of amazing artists that I listen to every day for hours, including Clairo, Dayglow and IDKHow.
Also recently discovered Dayglow released music under another name, so that's been amazing :>

When I was younger, Monstercat and NCS were all the hype, especially since a majority of the gaming community drifted to them. As I grew up, my friend circle was heavily into Rap/Hip-Hop which led me to branch out to trap/heavier EDM. In recent years new music tends to pop up via my YT or Spotify feed. I've always been relatively open to different genres, so I can't really say that there's only been one source of music for me.

That said, I've stayed relatively loyal to the following Curator Channels/Labels throughout the years.
Trap City
Proximity
Jompamusic

I'm really surprised you haven't met anyone on mana. Monstercat was adored by a large chunk of the minecraft community in the early-mid 2010s.

Interesting! Well, SpiroTech knows Monstercat too but not many others!

Hey at least that's one more person haha. Unfortunate to see how much great music the Mana cube has missed out on though.
