Introduction to genres

[s2kiwi]

Saw this interesting post on Reddit
Are you interested in learning about and discovering other musical genres? If so, I have compiled 100 "Introduction to ..." Spotify playlists with genre descriptions included for you to do exactly that.

The guy has put together a bunch of playlists representative of each music genre, designed as an introduction sample for people not familiar with the genre. It's a very cool resource.
The playlists are all comprised of a mix of the best songs in the genre, but I also selected to be fairly representative of what the genre most typically sounds like. He also considered the accessibility of the songs to suit an audience who are not familiar with the genre.

All the playlists are on https://open.spotify.com/user/123063831. I just went into spotty and searched 123063831 > Users > Playlists and up come all the options.

Hope it's useful to someone else out there for finding some new sounds.

I don't know. . . the Beatles, Fleetwood Mac and Radiohead in the "Folk" genre?
