There are a couple of methods that I use to discover new artists on Bandcamp. First, you can search by genre on the site itself, which will give you a listing of artists in that genre. Grab a glass of your preferred beverage and spend some time checking them out - each artist's page has samples of their music that you can stream for free (most have entire albums that can be streamed). I have found tons of artists that I love just by doing this very thing.
The second method I use is Music Map which lets you put in your favorite artists and then shows you other artists with a similar sound (which you can then look up on Bandcamp). It can be really hit or miss, but I've found a few artists I like this way.
Hope that helps - have fun listening to new tunes! :)
Thanks, I didn't know about music map. I have used Everynoise, which is similar, but doesn't get updates anymore since Spotify closed that particular API access.
