Given we all live in a decidedly niche music sphere, I thought it might be helpful if we share our tips/tricks for finding new artists. Here’s my tried and true: everynoise.com

    I’ve been using the custom chart function at https://rateyourmusic.com/ recently. It allows me to drill down to highly specific combinations of genres, influences and descriptors, such as “instrumental noise rock influenced by krautrock” or “noisy avant-prog influenced by post-punk”. Back in the day I discovered a lot of new music from obscure internet radio stations. Recommendation algorithms however have never worked for me, they usually just recommend stuff I already know.

        +1 on using RYM. It’s been perfect for custom charts, even filtering by year/decade.
