I think everyone (or at least almost everyone) has a special connection to music, so in general when interacting with people you can always discover gold when talking about music.

I love sharing and listening to songs that my friends and family recommend, and also I love stations (more than playlists) and the AutoPlay feature in Pandora, but I have to say that I have discovered some Jewel (get it?) on threads like the The Meaning Behind the Song... by @MOHLovesAlaska , I also like to check the New Music Pics and the special posts like the one for the Black History Month, and the collaborative posts like the one for V-Day 💗 or like Q: What's your go-to music for studying or working.... 

Also, I have found to like some of our Community Artists that have shared their music here, like the @TheGuitarTwins, @AngelaMCmusic, @SRP2020  or like @Mak7teen (that I discovered just today). 

I must say that I don't mean that personal recommendations are bad or that I don't like them, but I think recommendations from people that are in the same circles, specially the ones that are like more close to you can end up being a bit redundant. I mean, if you have similar or compatible personalities it is likely that you also have lots of similar tastes and listen to the same or very similar artists.

It has happened to me with my bff that I'm excited to show them a song or they are like oh you should listen to this and is like ooh yes I also love them. I think it can be fun when this happens but it ends up being redundant, but, when I dive on some of these threads I can find songs or groups that I have never heard of and I really love that!

Also, just as @LeonPandora mentioned I like suggestions from co-workers, for the same reasons I like to explore the community threads. We are very diverse and we like different types of music so it is really fun to listen to their suggestions as well.

Awsome! I discover new music when im talking to people,watching a movie,reading a book,scrolling through other music platforms and acoarse my family,which i grew up on country and rock music.

I do have my go too music to certain things i do when im working and when life was tough and trying to keep my family together,thats when DISTURBED entered my life.

I love all types of music,it brings people together and well its our therapy.

@MariaPandora I love your thread, and you are so right there are so many ways to discover new music, but not new music, just music that is new to individuals that has been introduced by other people, threads, or recommendations. Thanks again dear friend for your support. 

Have a great night take care and GOD bless...

I like to create a astation and after a while completely switch the vibe with a certain mode inside the station, and see if the new content it's hitting the spot jajaja.

Late, but I like to find a song that i like and listen to the full album the song is from, add any songs I like to my playlist, and repeat. Also, my friend Henry has some very underground music taste so I get recs from him too.
