Comment on If you have cut off mainstream music streaming, how do you discover new music or artists and songs like what you're listening frequently?

Gigs. Either just buying tickets to random local venues. Our go see your favourite artists live, but make sure you get there early enough to see the openers.

I’ve discovered so many amazing bands because they opened for bands I already knew I liked.

If you can’t physically get to gigs then you can even just look up who your favourite artists are touring with, that will give you a pretty good sense of them being similar.

I wish the bigger international bands i listen to would come to my country often. But then it would cost a lot.

But I get you though. I am friends with a weekend band that also has friends with other more "serious" underground bands. Been going to more and more gigs and helping out and actually discovered more songs and bands like this.

  It’s great! You’re also supporting the local scene which is massively important.
