Wow, this really brings me back. Found so many great songs/albums.
A fun story. A friend and I created a chrome extension called Turntaste [1] that would help suggest what to play based on what was previously played and help avoid songs to play. Basically, we used everyone who used the chrome extension to scrape the play history and stats. I was hoping to apply some cool ML... well cool for 2011 ... as I was doing my PhD in ML but ended up just using some simpler statistics based approaches. My favorite room was something like “Trending Indie - No Mumford & Sons”.
It was also used to generate a few cool playlist like a trending indie Spotify playlist [2]. It’s a bit frozen in time since it stopped working whenever the site went down.
