How much new music and inspiration do you find on your favourite music apps? I got a bit bored with them, as Spotify keeps recommending the same "new" songs. It gets repetitive and I get a bit annoyed by it. So I was delighted when I stumbled across a TikTok video about the "Needle Music" app. It's basically Instagram, but based on music. You can share the songs you are currently listening to and discover new ones from other users. So instead of algorithm driven recommendations, it feels like a sneak peek into other people's playlists and is actually a more organic approach. so this is my current obsession & if you feel like you need a new twist to your music - definitely check it out. To end the post, I'll share a song that I'm enjoying at the moment :

You should try Needle, it’s a new app I discovered that’s kinda like social media but for music and I’ve gotten a ton of cool music recs on there :)
It also syncs up with Spotify so you can easily save music too!

getting tired of my Spotify algorithm, in desperate need of new music.

this is my favorite way of discovering music:
go into your spotify followers/following, find a cool person/someone from your past, go into their followers, find a cooler person, peruse their playlists, add anything that looks cool to your queue -- rinse and repeat ad infinitum.
i tend to go down a rabbit hole when i do this which means i never get through the whole queue so i add all those songs to a massive playlist called "today's queue" that i put on when i need to expand my taste. i just add the whole thing so it's a nice mix of new and old that makes the combing-through experience very fun. as i listen to the songs i release them from today's queue and add them to my liked songs or discard them into the digital void.

Currently writing a paper on social media. And if there's one thing I've learnt about papers and the time you spend on them, it's that you definitely need something to keep you going - for me it's music to keep the mood up. So let me share with you the amazing set I found on YouTube by Vashtie for Aimé Leon Dore. Enjoy and get into the Sunday groove.
