   youtube has somehow decided that i am interested in live music performances by bands youve never heard of with under 300 views or the same but obscure 80s LPs.

   its pretty cool and i am affirming the algorithm so it keeps happening.

     @siege for great obscure 80s live sets, do a search including "John Peel session"

     @yaldi so youtube has for a while been showing me like videos with 7 views in a few different categories which might be my habits or them giving up and throwing shit at my algo wall, i dont know exactly what i did to get there.

     But i suspect this is like a mixture of digging deep into specific rare LPs from music producers who went off from other projects and released things that didnt get traction alongside things like Coati Mundi's channel where he uploads really obscure unseen footage from Kid Creole & The Coconuts old live shows as well as his own just musical joy and they get like only a handful of views has probably tilted me into "unseen music" as an odd algo vibe.

     thinking about it its probably labelled me with a "New Music" tag and its gonna be a lot of newly uploaded stuff from small producers/bands.
