I listen to music a lot, but never got algorithmic recommendation systems. It just seems too soulless.

Personally i still listen to the radio (streamed online obviously), in the UK NTS Radio (nts.live) and Rinse FM (rinse.fm) are good. Very few adverts, NTS is pretty much listener funded, not sure what Rinse do as I rarely hear ads.

The shows get archived on SoundCloud so you can ID tracks and find them on Spotify later if they were that good.
