last.fm double plus good
Recipe for discovering new music:
-
Go to last.fm and sign-up for an account
-
Configure your MP3 player's last.fm plugin with your account details (you may need to download and install a plugin if your player does not already provide one - I use rhythmbox's).
-
Listen to your own, favourite music for a while (e.g. a few weeks), to "scrobble" tracks to last.fm and seed your profile.
-
Use your last.fm plugin's playlist features, such as "My Neighbourhood", "Artist Similar to" and/or "Tagged with" to discover new music.
How come I'd never heard of last.fm before up until recently?
