How the fuck do I find music that I've never heard before and stop being such an uncultured pleb? I'm not looking for a specific genre, time period, or anything like that

I'm tired of feeling embarrassed whenever someone asks me about my musical taste.

try /mu/
>>
>>34565344
Just browse random artists in random genres by using a music website. Or try using Pandora. It's pretty shit with the amount of ads, but you still get music you may not have heard of.

There's a good /mu/core chart with recommendations in different genres. Would post it but larger than max filesize, just search mucore on google images though and you'll see it.

>>34565344
>make new youtube account
>start liking all the music you usually listen to
>don't watch other stuff on that account
>try the things that youtube brings you
>subscribe to channels that consistently put out stuff you like
>read comment sections on things you like and see what other people recommend

It's working well for me anyway.

Go back 4 years and try vaporwave
>>
dublab.com

Plays dj sets that are a huge variety of music. Some of it can be annoying but it always gets better.

Curated music is better than crowd picked.
>>
last.fm or warez websites like israbox.life ; intmusic.net.
>>
Listen to classical, the masters.
Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Wagner

>>34565663
Will try these out, ty anon
>>
>>34565344
Ask other people for recs, listen to radio programs. For the latter you have to find a program that talks about the genre you're interested in, for example some guys at my uni hosted a Metal podcast and I got some obscure recs that were great

>>34566123
>other people
very funny

>>34566234
I asked my dad once, but yeah that could be a problem. Looking for a genre in particular?

>>34566266

Russian death metal themed around Warhammer is the absolute best.

i started with
random youtube (unpopular,or minor music genre)

bandcamp is also recommended
download music at rutracker or PT
>>
>>34565344
rateyourmusic and last.fm

and /mu/ of course
>>
find a musician that you like, then research their influences, listen to those artists. go down the rabbit hole, eventually you'll have a "taste" in music. my personal band of choice was ween, but they're not for everyone.

a "taste" in music is not something that most people develop over night, don't try too hard to force it.

>>34565566
>mozart
Absolute garbage (taste).
>>
>>34565344
Only underaged faggots care about music, when you grow up no one gives a shit also KYS
>>
>>34565344

bandcamp recommendations

last.fm

like it - dislike it

I listen to tropical house nowadays. Comfy as fuck. You've probably heard of Kygo, similar to that.

Some weird cool shit here

https://bedlamtapes.bandcamp.com/

Just browse /mu/ and lurk. No musician or band is safe from criticism so don't even worry about what people's opinions are about bands, unless it's 21 pilots. Sage those
