C-Sides - "Escape mainstream algorithms, find real musical gems."

by•
Most music apps trap you in a loop of the same popular tracks. C-Sides breaks the algorithm. It is a data-driven discovery tool that analyzes an artist's entire discography to find their true "hidden gems"—songs with lower streams but highly loyal audiences. Search any artist or analyze your own playlists to uncover the unseen side of the record. Built for true music fans.

Hi Product Hunt, I’m Esad. I built C-Sides because I was genuinely frustrated with how streaming algorithms work. I was tired of being fed the same popular tracks every day, knowing that my favorite artists had incredible songs buried deep in their discographies that rarely get any attention. I wanted to build a way to break that loop. C-Sides analyzes data differently to find "hidden gems"—the tracks that might not have a billion streams, but are fiercely loved by true listeners. Instead of just another recommendation engine, it lets you search for any artist to uncover their deep cuts. You can also paste your own playlist links to see which of your current tracks are actually hidden gems. This started as a personal project to solve my own frustration, and I'm really excited to finally share it here. I'd love to hear your honest feedback. More importantly, I'm curious to know which hidden gems you end up discovering today.

The deep-cuts angle is refreshing. Streaming apps often keep pushing the same obvious tracks, so searching an artist’s discography for songs loyal fans actually care about feels useful.
