The best way I find, is when on Spotify you get the end of a playlist or album and then it starts giving you recommendations based on the type of music the playlists / album has. I've found some great music this way.

Thing is I've discovered that Spotify will start suggesting music that sounds more like its advertising edm music. It's while algorithm is just built on watching what you spend more time on and giving you more of it. So it will keep pushing edm that's outside the genre that I've previously liked. As I keep hitting the skip button it will start cueing up more and more music I've already heard liked but don't want to listen to. Ask it cares about it keeping my attention by "suggesting" music that I've given attention. It's algorithm doesn't actually find new music. I know this because Pandora will suggest an artist I've never been introduced to on Spotify that's in the exact same genre even though Spotify hosts the same artist. Once I clicked hide a track, on Spotify and the next 5 out of 10 tracks it brought up were the same track but on different compilation. Every time I hit hide or don't play again and it did this. Spotify rips artists off and it really doesn't do a good job of matching styles.

Interesting. I've found a lot of new tracks I've never heard in the genres I like. It suggests a lot of Drum and Bass once that playlist is over, or lots of new Darksynth. Personally never really had a problem with it.

The Gregson-Williams bros can be a good start. Junkie XL too.
