When I find something I really like, I most likely will enjoy it long after. I'll listen to it a lot when it is fresh, and then come back at it every now and then.
Just yesterday I had a listen to some of my trance/club CDs from around the 2000s[1][2]. Back then that was the kind of music I listened to all day err day, but these days not so much. But a few times a year I come back to enjoy it again.
> Bandcamp is great for this
Yeah love Bandcamp, their discover mixes are also quite nice. The variety, everything from heavy riffs[3] to otherwordly things like this[4]. And the artist actually gets most of the money, unlike with CDs or Spotify.
