My current system is to allow myself to get influenced by my partner who is a long time member of a pop forum which is based on a common love of Kylie Minogue and Tori Amos, a retired English dude in a football forum that I visit whose special interest is East Asian but mostly Japanese pop/rock/metal/punk (kind of funny to find this, this or this sandwiched between Led Zeppelin and The Moments in the music thread), going through a phase of searching out stuff on my own every now and then and whatever I happen to passively hear driving around listening to the radio while working.

Kind of gave up on the algorithms. I have my very large playlist that I should probably try to organise a bit.
