I've never heard an AI generated song on Netflix. I know I haven't because I don't use Spotify to find new music.

I'd suggest everyone check out KEXP if they want new music. Great source of literally any kind of music you'd want.

If you're going that way, there's also FIP.

[–] deft@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 month ago

I will check this out thanks

And a ton of internet radio stations (or, if that term confuses people: streams) that play really good stuff off the beaten path 24/7.

I mentioned that one because it's been at it since way before the Internet and is now well known even beyond France for the extremely eclectic and high quality selection it plays. FIP originally stands for France Inter Paris, it was meant as a music only station with only very short interruptions with soothing voices for news and traffic. The women with those particular tones of voice became known as the fipettes, and got some kind of faceless celebrity as a result. It used to be a standard setting on every car radio before there were a bazillion ststions (and CDs, and streaming).

KEXP

KEXP is a non-commercial radio station in Seattle, Washington, United

Are you serious?

[–] theherk@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago (3 children)

What’s not to be serious about? KEXP is a well known source for tons of great music, including up and comers, and their sound engineers are unparalleled.

Yo like Angine de Pointrine! The KEXP video game them a huge boost. So happy about that.

I'm sure it's nice but radio station means "radio music"

[–] theherk@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What does “radio music” mean?

[–] dil@piefed.zip -3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Top 100 or Top 20 charting songs on repeat

[–] theherk@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, that’s not how KEXP works.
