I woke up this morning, went to my Spotify Discover page looking for some new music, and found this...
Wiz Khalifa, Paramore, Rascal Flatts, My Chemical Romance, Metallica, Queen, Haim. Britney Spears, Brad Paisley, Naughty Boy, Lady Antebellum, Florence and the Machine, 50 Cent, R. Kelly, T.I. The Lumineers.
Top 40 hits from today, and my adolescence. Hip hop. Twang pop. Current pop-alternative. Generic classic rock.
At the risk of sounding like a hipster, my musical taste is varried, and almost never dips into any of those piedgon holes, save for classic rock. Spotify used to be fantastic at showing me artists based on the artists I enjoy. They seemed not to pander to the most popular or succesful either. I got results from artists with a range of followers, from millions, down to dozens. Most new music I've listened to in the past year, including many of my new favorites stemmed from that page.
At first I thought this was a bug, something temporarily wrong with my page. Then I found this... http://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Announcements/What-happened-to-Discover/td-p/857597/page/8
Some seem to have been affected by this a few months ago. I suppose it's just caught up with me. On the tenth page of that thread, someone recommends we voice our concerns here. So I am.
Please Spotify, aside from having a very comprehensive library of music, the Discover page was what I loved most about you. Bring it back. Leave the pop on the Top Lists page where it belongs.
PS: Yes, that's μTorrent I have open. Look what you're making me do!
Isn't it cool, they had changed it back! but just as a teaser... now we have new crappy discover back instead!
Basically the same as related artists for each artist you listen to.
these guys just don't get it: change is not for the better, if something is good: leave it the way it is.
Subject: DISCOVER PAGE
Issue: I listen to a ton of comedy and for some reason with the new setup I do not get any suggestions for comedians any more... I used to get a ton with the old layout... where is my comedy???

Hey everyone, we've have moved this from the Ideas section to the Help board. The original post described having an issue with only 'trending' and 'popular in your area posts', something that was also described in this Help thread:
"Random and shady recommendations on 'discover' tab"
This was resolved and returned to normal for users.
Any issues, queries, help, or troubleshooting around Discover should be done here in the Help pages. The Spotify staff and Rock Stars are happy to help with any questions you might have. If you have a feature you'd like to see or a feature you'd like to be removed then please make a new idea in the Ideas Board.
Thanks for feedback everyone!
