Producers are a huge piece of the puzzle to unlock. They tend to stick in similar areas of music, so odds are, you will like the other stuff they work on. Great point.


I use music map all the time! It's intuitive, and I've found it pretty accurate as well. Well done.


This looks amazing, I'm definitely going to use it to discover. If I would've known before writing the blog post, I would've added it :)


100% agree. Algorithms have their place, but human curation will always have its place as well.


That's awesome. I totally agree, nothing substitutes human curation


Ironically, very little of the conversation in this thread is discussing the actual link, which is a mailing list of human-reviewed releases.

Most of the comments appear to be about the best algorithmic recommendation engine. I've used them all and still think it doesn't compare to the experience of human-curated music. Even a 1 paragraph review of the record tells me more than a "You might also like [___]" message.
