Services like Last.FM and ListenBrainz will eventually give good recommendations. They need LOTS of listens to figure it out. Last.FM, before I stopped using it, was very accurate.
Now I just keep track of releases on Bandcamp, Resident Advisor, AOTY, etc. via RSS feeds.
What style of music do you listen to?
Last.fm works pretty well, but my main issue with it, is that it is proprietary, so I would like to avoid it if possible. I tried using ListenBrainz but even after few weeks of my data it doesn't give me any recommendations and even when looking at users that are considered similar they are listening to completely different things.
Not really sure what is the style. Mainly just OSTs from anime, games etc. Take a look.
Yes, ListenBrainz takes AGES to figure out recommendations. I have scrobbles going back to 2006 and even when I imported them it still took weeks to suggest something. I too left Last.FM due to the proprietary nature. You might have to find a niche blog or something if you want to find more music.
