Spotify's Fresh Finds playlists serve up undiscovered artists
Last summer, Spotify rolled out its Discover Weekly feature that builds a new playlist each week based on your listening habits. I've actually found the tool to be quite useful for discovering new music and now the streaming service is looking to expand its recommendations. With Fresh Finds, Spotify creates genre-specific playlists uses software and human "tastemakers" to identify undiscovered artists before they become popular. The process for choosing the tracks includes analyzing listening patterns of users who seem to have a knack for "up and coming music" (those so-called tastemakers) and monitoring the web for additional info.
