it is my fav site for learning about music and movies and keeping track of what i like! and the userbase is better than on other rating sites like goodreads and letterboxd. https://rateyourmusic.com/~moon_calf
I still use Spotify but rate your music is a good website to get recommendations without the algorithm. It does lean more towards metal reccs but if you want things other than that it’s definitely on there.
Every time Spotify‘s algorithm hits a wall in terms of giving me new music, I use this site to look for new releases but I specifically look at artists who‘s music I haven’t heard before or if I’m feeling super experimental I’ll only look Into genres I've never heard of or barely know. I highly recommend this, it’s a fun way to discover new artists and music in general🤩 Music roamer is also a goated way of finding artists similar to your faves https://www.musicroamer.com (use the desktop version)
sadly addicted to making stupid shirts/bumper stickers. would i ever make or wear the i heart covid-19 t-shirt dress? no. but it was stuck in my head for like a week, and i had to get it out. same goes for all the rest :)
