Spotify playlists for new releases?
May 8, 2021 6:20 PM Subscribe
With live shows on the horizon, I want to hear new music from bands who might be touring soon.
I know its bad and wrong, but I like Spotify playlists. In addition to Spotify's Release Radar, I follow KEXP's Song of the Day 2021 and Pitchfork's Best New Music.
Any recommendations for other playlists focused on new releases only? I like indie rock, but also rap, jazz, twangy stuff, etc.
Thanks for any recs!
NPR's All Songs Considered has a 'new music Friday' podcast that is available on Spotify; I'm not sure if they have a songs only playlist to go along with it. They throw a pretty wide net; maybe a bit wider than either KEXP and Pitchfork. I typically find a band or two I follow up on, and only end up skipping a song on occasion.

All Songs Considered, mentioned above, does have a complete playlist for their New Music Friday.
That podcast is my go-to place to find new things to listen to. There's always at least one piece I really like, and at least one that stretches my listening range. Really great for hearing artists I am unlikely to have done across on my own.
