I just wanted to say that it's not the algorithm's fault that it is recommending you something you have heard and don't like. Since we are using Last.fm data, the algorithm only knows what you have listened to from your Last.fm library. If you scrobbled a listen to Jason Mraz, the next time you checked yournextfavband.com you would get a new recommendation.</p> <p>Give it a go and let me know if it works out better!</p> <p>Phil</p> Hi Kevin,

Thanks for having a look at yournextfavband.com, sorry it hasn’t come up with a band you like. I just wanted to say that it’s not the algorithm’s fault that it is recommending you something you have heard and don’t like. Since we are using Last.fm data, the algorithm only knows what you have listened to from your Last.fm library. If you scrobbled a listen to Jason Mraz, the next time you checked yournextfavband.com you would get a new recommendation.

Give it a go and let me know if it works out better!

Phil
