Hi @smokinthemeat 

It's not possible to delete your Release Radar, but it is possible to reprogramme it.

Your Release Radar is captures new releases from artists you follow. If you aren't following many the the algorithm will make selections for you. 

The more artists you follow the bigger your RR will be. Following artists just to get your numbers up doesn't work. The key is to follow artists who have given you music you like, and don't be afraid to unfollow an artist if they keep releasing low quality music. Quality in = quality out.

Every few hundred new artists you follow has an immediate impact on your RR. It takes time to get your followed artists over 3,000 but when you do you'll be looking at 200 new releases on your RR. Beyond that tracks get replaced. 

The best place to start is in your liked songs, because those songs have already passed your quality test. The next place to look is in your favourite playlist. Follow collaborators too, because that expands your listening base organically.

It's more efficient to work from the bottom up, when following artists from a playlist or your liked songs. That's because the selection box drops down. If your'e already following them you simply go up and right click on the next artist.
