I have some friends my age still listening to the same bands they used to 20 years ago, complaining about how music today sounds all the same. However I discover something new almost every day and I’m not kidding.

It’s true that some of my discoveries are bands from decades before I was born, so they can’t be considered new, although they are new to me if that makes sense.

What about you? Still listening to the same tunes you used to listen to when you were a teenager?

    Nah my tastes are all over the place, but finding new new bands is kinda hard, and I never make time to actually do it. My s.o. has impeccable taste luckily so she’s always showing me new stuff, most of it is older, deep cuts etx, but like you said it’s new to me. I’m just starting to cycle back into stuff I listened to 10 years ago though. It’s nostalgic and still amazing.

      If you stream I find curated playlists and sometimes even radio stations based off of songs to get me to new acts. I’ve found some of my favorite acts this way.

      It doesn’t help with finding new genres, though. I’ve actually found the occasional odd ball in my YouTube recommendations are decent for this, but not great.
