http://www.gnoosic.com It uses a program called gnod which can also be used to find books and movies.gnoosic.com posted:
I was able to find about 10 bands I had never heard of that are loving fantastic. It's amazing to me how much good music I've been missing out on. For example when I put in my 3 bands as Radiohead, Liars, Gorecki it gave me the band Library Tapes. I'd never heard of them before but I really like it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PId1p8qfetc Try it out.

I put in Brian Eno, Scott Walker, and Ornette Coleman and got back Pharoah Sanders. Not bad, but not quite on the money..

I put in Karate, Radiohead, and Rush and it spit out The Van Pelt and The Lapse, both of whom sound a little like Karate in as much as it's talk-y vocaled indie rock, but not really like the other two. ok, 3rd selection is Nam June Paik which seems to really be missing the mark.

I don't think it's trying to find bands that sound like your choices, but bands that you might also like based on your tastes. Pandora might say "you like minor keys, male vocals, and orchestral elements." This sounds more like Last.fm, where they mine data from people with similar tastes to find bands you might like. Edit: I would bet that this is just a massive database of cross-referenced names, and has no information on how any band sounds.

Maybe the whole site is a vehicle for Speial Guest because I listen to very different poo poo from you and it still recommended Speial Guest to me a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 21:47 on May 16, 2016 |

I just got Speial Guest. Either he or someone who likes him set this up or he hacked it to recommend him.

I put in Current 93, Master's Hammer and the Art Ensemble of Chicago and it just gave me a bunch of black metal bands I already knew about. Not very useful

Hmm, worked really well for me. That's funny about Speial Guest. I don't think I ever had that recommended to me but maybe it's the guy who runs the site's band or something.

This seems like a waste of a good idea. I hope once the creator collects enough sample data they can make a version that: 1) Embeds a youtube video or soundcloud player for one or two sample songs from the artist 2) Let users rate on a scale rather than a yes/no basis. 3) Lets the user continue to cycle through recommendations endlessly 4) Continually refines it's selections due to selections from all its users Edit: Basically gamify the music recommendation algorithm from Last.fm bowser fucked around with this message at 03:45 on May 17, 2016 |

Not a band, as far as I could tell. He or she is a visual artist. I followed a link from the site to a Facebook page--I saw a bunch of "cut-up" pieces, but no music. I can't imagine the relationship, but I agree that Speial Guest is probably affiliated with the site.
