Ask HN: Where do you go for music discussion?
I used to love discussing music on Last.fm but it feels as if the community died off. Discogs groups are pretty inactive except for a few of the larger ones.
Where do you go to discuss music? Or is it just really not a thing anymore?
- giantg2 6y agoI think IRC (Freenode) has some music channels.
- zzo38computer 6y agoDo you know which names of channels specifically?
- giantg2 6y agoAs a guess, you could try #music. I think there are sites that have a directory that you can search though.
- cpach 6y agoJust a thought: Have you considered starting a Slack or web forum for this purpose?
- GeneralMaximus 6y agoHave you looked at RateYourMusic.com? I don't participate in the community very much, but I regularly lurk there and find tons of great recommendations, reviews, and discussions about all kinds of obscure music. Some of the subreddits are also good. Shout out to /r/hiphopheads, /r/indieheads, /r/popheads, and /r/letstalkmusic.
- cpach 6y agoHaven’t tried the RYM forums but it’s a really great site for finding music. So glad that it’s still around.
