How do you discover new music?

Pretty much via word of mouth from friends, what I see on the iTunes Charts, or in the media. Lots of my music I hear first in tv shows and movies, then I rush home to download it all, haha.

Anything catchy yo and if it pierces through my heart that's how I discover new music yo. (^o^)b

I usually find new songs through Pandora radio. I jot down the title/artist and later look it up on Youtube. I'm quite backlogged in doing that, haha. I sometimes click on related songs after I'm done listening to a music video too.

Rarely, I will find a song I like while listening to the car radio. Now, I find it somewhat tough to jot down cool songs while riding in the car! I make a note on my phone and text away the lyrics I can decipher.

Either by accident, or by word of mouth. Usually by accident.

usually just on youtube and I see a related video that appeals to me.

Completely at random. When I was reading about Video Brinquedo (those Brazilian vendors of terrible animations) I found out one of the theme tunes was a real song. I got and loved it.

Sometimes youtube channels, mainly youtube poops themselves. if there is a music I like, then I usually ask what the song is, or look up the lyrics themselves.

I use websites like Last.fm and Deezer and also friends are great for music!. ^^

I leave Pandora on all day. If I hear something I like, I put it in a text file so I'll remember.

My local radio, friends or simply youtube.

I am on Austrian and Swiss Charts.

Last.fm,Internet Hype,AIRA Charts and itunes charts mostly.

I play new games and hear their soundtracks.
Of course, that actually happens during the course of playing new games; I don't search for music itself.

check Pitchfork's website, lots of great music :D

Usually my friends'll tell me to listen to an artist or song they like. For the most part it's good stuff, so I'll eventually end up downloading it.

So many ways but usually through Pandora or typing "Bands like *Bandnamehere*" which is how I found quite a few new bands I've been listening to this week.

Discovering new music

How do you like to discover new music? Do you go on YouTube, use pandora, whatever?

I discover music a load of different ways, though the most prevalent is through other people's recommendations. For instance, on another forum, a member's username is Mogwai, and I was curious as to what it meant. He told me that it was the Scottish post-rock band. I tried it out (via Youtube, since internet radios suck and don't play post-rock music right o h m y g o d) and loved it, and was, from that point, a fan of post-rock music with the discovery of other bands in the same genre, etc.

I never discover new genres/artists via Youtube because when I use Youtube I end up watching specific video series' or listening to specific artists/watching specific videos. Honestly, I can't think of a time I've legitimately browsed the site for new things. I'm usually referred to things or I happen to stumble upon a genre/artist on a site or wiki.

I usually discover new music through the radio. If I don't know the name of the particular song i like, i write down a few lyrics and then google them. The song usually comes up in the first five or so results. Friends also give me new music to listen to, not to mention I browse Youtube for the latest hits.
