When I am in G.S.D. mode, I always go for wordless music that lets me lock in. Like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gopYmb38DgM or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrkrdYm3HPQ
When I am in hitting the gym, Spotify, pick rock song from the 2ks and hit radio mode.

I have been testing Spotify's DJ .. I tell it to play new songs based upon my 20 playlists and exclude AI, rap and hiphop. Often the DJ does a good job with mixing my playlists with new music. Sometimes it is way off. To be fair it is in Beta.

When its right, its alright. When its wrong, its very wrong lol. It is in Beta and has been for a while. I sometimes wonder if its placed there so we aren't harsh with the critique

I have three moods; listening to music i haven't heard before, listening to music i haven't listened to in a long time (like over 6 months), or listening to some music that i have been recommended to by friends or the rare times of letting an algorithm decide for me.
I usually utilize P2P as a library kind of thing; listen to an album or so from an artist or band or composer... then delete it; while i keep the ones i really enjoy and would do with the second mood.
I rarely ever stream; it's the bane of musical diversity.

When you lay it out like that, I think those three moods apply to me as well. There are times I get stuck on a particular album that I listen to till it's completely worn out, then I revisit it a long time in the future.
What would you say is so 'broken' with music selection with algorithms? I can't put my finger on it (pun intended)
What's your library like? All physical?

Most algorithms stick to one genre until you seek another, then it sticks to that other genre. While this is fine for a lot of people; it's not acceptable to me as my favourite music tends to range from a lot of genres.
My library is about half and half. though if you don't include my own music; it would be primarily physical. There are some recordings that are only accessable digital.

Pick an album or ask an LLM for an album. Or radio on a song I like.

How does the LLM get context on what you like? How often do you radio on songs?
