Especially p4k's praises and scaruffi's disses

>>72722601
There's fucking tons of music they've not reviewed

>>72722635
Kek funny thing is I don't even use any of that. First time I even saw that was here

>>72722673
Obviously but I mean there are only so many thing worth listening to and those that are will have been shilled by one of them

RYM lists
Find some new releases and pick some at random to listen to
Last.fm suggested artists, artist to listen to next and compatible users are pretty good

>>72722520

Not him but Pitchfork alone reviews like ~2000 albums a year. I get that they don't review everything but they inevitably review even pretty niche stuff that I listen to.

remember that the OP also mentioned /mu/ my dude, so yeah. Still I think you're taking me too literally. I don't actually believe every single good album has been reviewed or been posted here that's just retarded and exaggerated.

I doubt any of them have reviewed anything posted in bleep or jazz (except for what newfags post in them)

by finding recommendations from other sources and by not listening exclusively to music from the '90s onwards (it sounds dumb but look at those charts people post). I don't really keep up with music anymore but nowadays I get most of my recommendations from Boomkat and, to a certain extent, The Quietus (along with Pitchfork, though I couldn't give a shit about either Fantano or Scaruffi).

having a much larger interest for film than music I've noticed (perhaps incorrectly? feel free to chime in here) that the critic matters a whole lot more than the outlet. I used to check Pitchfork on a daily basis but couldn't give a fuck about who reviewed the album in question, and, unlike with Fantano/Scaruffi, I haven't really noticed any other individual critics (except Christgau from time to time) being thrown around here. it's all about the outlet, which, in the case of Pitchfork, is and always has been a tastemaker that's kind of shit.

I might've worded this a bit strangely, but the point I'm trying to make is that there's *at least* 30 established film critics I keep up with and about as many amateur ones I follow, meaning the views on a piece will vary a whole lot more than if you're just going off of Pitchfork/Fantano/Scaruffi/the consensus on /mu/.

>>72722966
Yeah but then you have contrarians and shitposters talking about how you only like /mu/core it's a vicious cycle, and I've learned not to care. Although I've never been in /bleep/ so I don't know what goes on in there. Also nice dubs

Develop an interest in something that isn't Hip Hop or "Indie"
