"That simplicity makes “What’s in My Bag?” a humble, handy tool for encountering new and unfamiliar music — whether you’re a fan of the artist rifling through their bag or not. But if you really dive into this thing, you’ll begin to learn how musicians hear, how they think, how they remember, how they forget, how they emulate, how they worship, how they fortify and defy their own tastes, how they communicate with one another, and, ultimately, how they experience the world."
The Washington Post

”Our award-winning series featuring artists and tastemakers sharing what they found shopping at Amoeba”

Is everything available at Amoeba?

Definitely not. But it is one of the largest stores in the world and much of its diversity is due to its large space dedicated to second-hand products, which is why it is the store with the largest independent collection in the world. Although the program is thought from the store, you realize through the 16 seasons, the opportunity that artists have to passionately talk about music that they rarely talk about in other places. And we are talking about more than 700 musicians talking about different music, from jazz artists to metal and from different countries.

it seems fine to me

I know the concerns Henrik have is about the limitations in recommendations but as some sources points out, it's much bigger than traditional record stores or even a radio stations and TV (and we have many eligible of those ones). And also must be the platform with most diversity of recommendations nowadays.


Amoeba Music's "What's In My Bag?" series showcases artists picking records at Amoeba's store and talking about their influences and the new music they have discovered.

We don’t discover music that way too often, either. So much of today’s taste-making power resides in the mindless algorithmic recommendations made by musical streaming services — corporate interests doing everything in their power to lock listeners into sedative playlists, corralling our ears into tidy silos of prolonged engagement. “What’s in My Bag?” feels almost heroically antithetical to those bleak playlist-ification tactics. It steers us toward unexpected sounds via human beings telling human stories.

INFO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amoeba_Music

https://www.amoeba.com/who-we-are/

Since 1990, Amoeba Music has welcomed independent music lovers of all kinds to our unique, vibrant stores in Berkeley, San Francisco and Hollywood. We stock every kind of music and movies -- from the top 40 to the best in underground rock and hip-hop, soul, electronica, new and classic jazz, world music, roots music and experimental music. We also have the biggest, most diverse and affordable selection of DVDs and vinyl LPs found anywhere. Since we're a trading post for new and used discs, our stock changes daily, and just about anything you're looking for can be found here. We're more than just a record store -- we're a 21st century music outlet, a website, a popular live performance venue, and together with our customers we're a meeting place for California's most colorful community of progressive and creative minds.

Our staff is an all-star team of music retail veterans, with a collective depth of knowledge that is virtually unparalleled in the business. Many of us are musicians, or make music our lives in one way or another, and we take seriously the importance of our customers' relationship to music. We put customer service first and foremost -- our mission is to bring people and music together and to make everyone feel at home.

Amoeba Music began at a time when the huge chain stores were mercilessly swallowing up independent stores and local chain stores, depriving communities across the country of a personal relationship with their music outlets, and destroying the opportunity to discover a whole world of music beyond what corporate retailers wanted them to see. Amoeba arose out of that community of music lovers that wanted a better place for music than a corporate chain store -- one with the widest possible selection, better service, and more respect for people's ideas and lives. Together with you, we are that community of independent artists and listeners that wanted something more, and with you we've been able to take root and thrive in California's most amazing cities. We're humbled by and thankful for the continuing support and success we've found in trying to create a store and a venue that's worthy of great music.

Our San Francisco and Hollywood stores are big-city sized but have that same independent Berkeley spirit. These easy-to-get-to locations in the classic Haight-Ashbury and Sunset Strip locales feature vast, unbeatable selection, and are constantly hosting incredible free live performances and musical events. If you love music, let us be your ultimate source for inspiration!



It is very impressive what they have accomplished so far , great find panam
