I keep noticing that a lot of songs get popular on TikTok before they show up in playlists or on the charts. Sometimes I end up adding tracks to my own mixes just because I heard them trending there first.
For anyone using TikTok alongside djay or other music apps, does it affect how you find music or what you play? Do you see it as a good way to discover new artists, or does it make music feel too focused on trends?
I do find music on TikTok sometimes. A good idea is to ask an AI (like ChatGPT or Grok) to look up the most popular songs on the platform. Then, it gives me personalized playlist suggestions, even for specific genres.
Yeah, that’s a good point. I haven’t tried using AI for playlist suggestions yet, but I can see how it could help filter through all the noise. TikTok pushes out so much music at once that it’s easy to miss stuff unless you’re following the right creators
