How do you find new music to listen to? (beehaw.org)

I’ve used both Apple Music and Spotify in recent years and while their discovery is okay, it always plays it safe. As if they’ve made a genre that is just for me and won’t play anything outside of that. How do I expand my music horizons?

To add on to that. Their enhance playlists or similar songs found at the bottom of your playlist page can be really relevant and I've learned about a ton of new artists that way.

Yes, that has helped out a lot too. It may not work for OP since they're feeling like these systems are creating a genre just for you, but this works if you're not looking to jump to something too different from what you already enjoy.
