Spotify, my preferred platform for streaming music, curates the coolest playlists for me based on my musical taste. "Discover" is the perfect name for these personalized playlists because there are so many gems hidden on them. Although these weekly playlists are great for discovering new songs, don't just let your preferred streaming platform do all the work for you; get your hands a little dirty and explore new artists on your own. It's more organic (and a little more fulfilling) that way. That's usually how I discover most of the music I add to my collection of playlists. There's no greater feeling for a music head than pressing 'play' on a song you've never heard before, and actually feeling that shit. I've included a few of the songs that I've been listening to lately.
