Lately I've been reflecting more on how I went from listening to two bands, to where I am now and my incredibly broad and reaching music tastes and knowledge. Thinking about essential albums that have helped shape my tastes. This seems like an interesting survey to see if I can find some new music, or at least see what type of stuff is on the fringes.

The point is to start at your #1 overall top artist, don't include in the list, and then follow the similar artists steps to find out where you went 50 steps down the line. You were to use the 1st similar artist unless it was already on your list, if it was you used the second, if that was the third….you get the point…no repetition or you'd just go in circles.

Alright so in reflection, this thing was incredibly flawed. Basically after #18 (damien rice) I was completely uninterested in any band that came up. Why? Because I got stuck in an infinite loop of britpop/rock, a genre that really doesn't interest me. Literally from 29-50 was just britpop and rock bands from Sussex.

I'm going to do it again, only I'm going to start with a different band, and instead i'm going to click on the related artist that I like the most(no more than 20), until I am in a land of obscurity. This should provide many more relevant recommendations.
