Recommended Radio playing only songs similar to 1 or 2 artists

 

  • Recommended Radio playing only songs similar to 1 or 2 artists

    Hi, im having problems with my Recommended Radio Station.....both in my web browser (Chrome) and in my iphone 4 my station it´s only playing songs similiar to The Vanish, Hesta Prynn and Hey Champ.....so the thing is that every time I try to listen to this recommend radio station, only plays this kind of music (and i have plenty of different styles in my library....rock, house, trip-hop, funk....).

    Why it´s not playing artists similar to others? why it doesn´t change style sometimes?? is this a known bug? im I doing something wrong??

    This days I only listed to rock, rock and rock all day long scrobbling only rock songs to see if something changed.....but when i get back do the recommend radio it keeps only playing Hey Champ style of music.....whats going on?? (i have this problem like for 2 months already)

    Please Help!
    thanks

  • Same Deal... limited genres coming through Recommended Radio

    I love the idea of Recommended Radio (RR) and like playing it to get new stuff scrobbled (unlike hearing the same tracks over and over during normal play), but RR only plays such a narrow range of all of the various styles of music I have in my library. I have everything from trip-hop to nu-metal, oi! to technical hardcore, industrial, punk, crunk and filthstep, but my RR plays nearly exclusively Oi and Industrial. Maybe one in 50 songs is something else, then back to Industrial and Oi.

    After having scanned the forums, it seems several people are reporting this problem. RR should be representative of your library, but the limited play is getting kind of old and frustrating. Oh look, a filthstep song is playing... finally! But wait, I've actually listened to it three times before! Seriously?! >>| That was nearly a brief encounter in musical diversity. Oh look, Industrial is next. Fucking yay!

    Please fix this... please, please, please!

  • Same problem here.

    Just became a subscriber, started listening to Recommended Radio, and keep getting the same few artists (five or six), considered similar to the same few other artists (four or five). I have over 2500 artists scrobbled. Why is this happening?

    Same problem here. Would be great if you fix it, the recommended radio idea is just fantastic!

  • Web Site Support??? Recommended Radio issues not resolved.

    Not much Web Site Support going on here. Perhaps a comment saying you read the concerns and will address it, even if you don't, but knowing our voices have been heard would be nice. As it is, the problem still exists. Maybe it's due to my own listening styles... maybe there's something I can do to increase the genre variety in Recommended Radio... but whatever the case, lack of response is disheartening. If it turns out that your algorithms have not taken something into account for a certain cross section of listeners, then I'm sure any one of us could provide you with the details of our listening lifestyle to help you sort it out. We all obviously like the feature... I LOVE the new music aspect to it and that I rarely hear the same tracks (let alone the same tracks over and over)... but the limited genres coming out of it is driving me a little batty.

    Please fix it... please let us know our voices have been hears... please respond... something! Thanks.
