How do you share and discuss music with friends?

It'd be great to know how you might share some new music you've heard amongst friends. Do you just share Spotify links? What if friends aren't on Spotify? Do you discuss things on WhatsApp, iMessage, SMS, Email? When listening to a new artist/song, what info would you like to know about them? e.g. upcoming tour dates (when we're all out of lockdown!), artist biog, other popular songs, similar artists? Would you use a resource like https://www.onmydeck.com for fun/sharing songs/finding out artist info?

I share Spotify on Instagram Stories or with specific people sending Spotify links on WhatsApp or iMessage. But, depends who with eg. my band share only Youtube links on our WhatsApp and we discuss those tunes, visuals and refer to a timestamp. I might then search the ones I like on Spotify - but they could have saved me a click. When I listen to new music I often look for the original album for the initial song I liked, then the other popular songs, yes look for tour dates (that sucks now), and deffo use the similar artists feature Spotify. I might scan their bio to find out where they're from and if they play with other artists I like. I might also check out their Instagram and might follow them.

lowkey play it in the background when I'm with them, or in a call. If they like it they'll ask about it. I don't wanna risk them hating it.

@jonas_bartsch Was curious, in a week, how often do you find yourself sharing music?
Jonas Bärtsch
@arpita_dhir not a regular thing for me. I might have a phase where I share a bit more. At the moment I simply dont.

Thanks for the responses @kachurmtb_777 , @jonas_bartsch and @mariahalse - I'm looking to make sure that OnMyDeck.com has some great resources for songs and artists. I want it to be a one-stop location to discuss a song, get recommendations, find out artist info and tour dates etc.

I made a #bops channel on our company Slack, but it's pretty much just me posting Spotify links to Carly Rae Jepsen songs over and over again... Otherwise I still use Spotify links if I'm sending a song to someone on iMessage. I always enjoy comparing what I listen to vs friends when Spotify does the "2019 wrapped" playlists.

Yeah, just Spotify links. Enough people have it that it hasn't been an issue for me. Discussion via text or in person mostly. And being able to find similar artists is great.

Hey Simon, I created an app called Sterio for sharing music. It allows Spotify and Apple Music users to send music to each other. In simple words its a chat application for music which works across streaming services. The app is up on the stores. Sterio - Share Music ---->>> https://sterio.app/store
