To be fair, I discovered a lot of my favorite artists through compilations like Bravo Hits and later Crossing All Over and Punk-O-Rama… and Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 of course.

For me it was the weekly telephone song votings on the radio.
They often deliberatly put niche stuff in there up for vote that then stuck with me :-)

Back in the heyday of TV I found so many good artists from watching Later… with Jools Holland. He’d book a couple of big-name bands to draw viewers, alongside a bunch of unknowns he wanted to give exposure to.
It also taught me that there is no type of music that can’t be dramatically improved by a boogie-woogie piano solo if the artists are into it.
