It’s better than my effort at finding music, and it makes Mondays a little nicer. My goal isn’t to find the best music ever, but to find new and interesting music more easily.

Have you compared against random sampling?
If it's randomly selected from the entire music library of Spotify, then it won't be good. Most of it would come from a long tail of bad or niche stuff.

For a practical example see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random - odds of finding an article that's both interesting and high quality are low.
