Out of all the ways discovering music, surprisingly Soundcloud has been the best. Being able to curate a list of DJs in various genres means that I'm constantly finding new music by being exposed to what they're putting in their sets.

It's kind of a meta music discovery, I can piggy back off others who have tastes that I like.

The biggest benefit of this is that I don't necessarily get recommendations of music that's adjacent to what I already like. In other words, if I like Depeche Mode, I don't want to listen to bands that sound vaguely like them.

What I've yet to see someone do, is track what music someone listens to after listening to a song. Often when I hear a piece of music, it makes me want to listen to something else that feels the same way or reminds me of being in similar place in time. A music recommendation engine based of this concept would be interesting.
