The Best Ways to Discover New Music

Tons of great music is out there. You just have to know how to find it.

I’ve had dozens of conversations in recent weeks with people who fall into one of two camps: there are those who say there is just no good music anymore, versus those who don’t embrace the “they don’t make music like they used to” argument, but who simply don’t know how to actually find new music that suits their tastes.

It’s far too easy to become complacent when it comes to music, boxing yourself in to what you already know, and failing to venture out of your comfort zone in search of something new. I get it because I’ve been there too.

Have no doubt, there is most certainly an abundance of great music still being made.

As a matter of fact, there’s now more music being released on a daily basis than any of us could possibly consume within our lifetimes. In the last fourty years, our global population has doubled, and so based off of the numbers alone, we can infer that more people are making music today than ever before in the history of the world.
