In Apple Music I look forward to the playlist of 100% new (to you?) songs that it offers every Friday. The Discovery station is usually good too, but I find more keepers from the Friday playlist than others usually.

Bandcamp is definitely the best for finding completely new artists and genres though, for me at least. Something about their featured “New and Notable” posts makes me willing to just try a new genre or artist, much more readily than other services. And I strongly agree on your point about user profiles being public. The “what’s your favorite song on this album” and “why do you love this album” text fields that you can see all over are full of comments that are just wonderful.
