There are some channels on YouTube that post good music albums, either because they're the producer, or because they simply have good taste. Some underground stuff from the '70s only pops up now. Honestly the quality is amazing on some of these and you wonder how come it isn't more popular. I'll share some of my recent findings.

  • Captain Beefart. @x0x7 wanted to relisten Nuclear Watermelon which was posted there, that is what prompted this post. This is a producer who posts a few times a year.
  • Neo Prog. Name says it all. Great collection of prog rock.
  • Music Voyager. This one posts actively. Great rock.
  • Jhissac Quiros. This is something completely different, namely pop, but it's good pop. Playlists. Posts actively.

What are some music channels you've discovered recently?

Quality Radio Productions - the deepest of cuts. Jazz, classical, “world music”, and more. Eclectic. Like DJs used to, every set tells a story.

WQXR - great for classical discovery. Most classical stations play the same 30 songs by the same 5 composers, this one is much broader. They have an app, which is how I listen.

I'm going to make good use of this list. I need new music for the car.

Should I make music.gvid.tv a thing? I'm mostly sick of how unsafe spotify and youtube are to operate in the car. It should be quick to navigate with no gotchas.

Right now it's just a generic directory server. Separate from building UI I could start building up a library. Might as well.

the car

That's the title of a recent Arctic Monkeys album, also highly recommended. They make lounge music now.

Also why not unify it with the stream option in the chat? Which is gone now apparently? Hm music is more individual but it could be cool if it's syncronized with others right? I think the volume is low enough so that there won't be a conflict like someone wants to watch a movie while the other person is in his car listening to music. Maybe down the road.

These stream isn't gone. People can turn it on and off with /play and /close. I had it default on during movie nights and left it on longer than I initially intended. People said they wanted it off so I turned off the auto-launch. But you can still do launch it.

I should do a test with that today.

But if I do flush out music.gvid.tv it really is going to be more like spotify than anything else. But it would be cool to have listen groups and have someone dj it. That's better than hands free.

Bro, new idea. What if there was Siri but it was actually a human. Surely someone can afford having an actual DJ they can talk to control their music.
