Whats a good place these days to download/find niche music like this days? I loved what.cd before it shut down

Electronic music is anything but niche

anyways, rutracker or many of the other private trackers

If you want to discover electronic subgenres then I'd recommend to listen the weekly Essential Mix https://www.mixesdb.com/w/Category:Essential_Mix

If you want some personal recommendation my current top 5 (changes all the time)

Daft Punk (1997) https://www.mixesdb.com/w/1997-03-02_-_Daft_Punk_-_Essential...

Justice (2007) https://www.mixesdb.com/w/2007-06-10_-_Justice_-_Essential_M...

Sharam (2009) https://www.mixesdb.com/w/2009-08-29_-_Sharam_-_Essential_Mi...

Skrillex (2013) https://www.mixesdb.com/w/2013-06-15_-_Skrillex_-_Essential_...

Ben Böhmer (2021) https://www.mixesdb.com/w/2021-10-09_-_Ben_B%C3%B6hmer_-_Ess...

for old electronic music - Youtube, honestly. the algorithm is pretty good for finding old electronic music. like if youtube recommends me some random old 7 minute song with nothing but a picture of a record, there's a good chance I'm gonna like it at this point.

I'm on some of the oink/what successors and honestly, it's so hard to build ratio that it makes me not really like them at all.

Rutracker has been mostly good for my tastes.
