Finally, I feel validated! But would love to compare myself to specific friends. In particular, really need to prove to a friend that I found MisterWives before he did...

Fun idea. Not sure how they determine "pre vs. post-breakout" artists though. I signed in and apparently I found ODESZA, Cashmere Cat, LOGIC, Glass Animals, Made in Heights, and Capital Cities. Bug report: When I click the playlist they generate at the end, it doesn't seem to do anything.

At 22 artists under 10%, I'd like to get free swag, music, and concert tickets to validate my taste in music as well as lord said melodic preferences over my coworkers and friends. Let's call that 2.0. Also, I positively adore this product.

Sadly I have not discovered any breakout artists yet (probably because I'm still desperately clinging onto the bands from my youth), but Spotify helpfully suggested a playlist of emerging artists that I could listen to.

That's very good. I'm really impressed with what Spotify are doing with their 'Discovery' stuff at the moment (I got in early with Lorde, Bastille and CHVRCHES apparently)
