Here's something rather mundane, but definitely works for me: open Internet Archive's Audio section and choose "This Just In". Click on the first interesting thing you see and let it play. Most things I choose are pretty good to so-so, but sometimes I find a real gem (e.g., 3-hour-long John Peel radio captures transferred from cassette from the late 1970s).

It's all rather random but relies somewhat on your gut instinct. I find it more enjoyable than the top music streaming services. Case in point: someone uploaded an excellent field recording of a Bruce Hornsby concert from 2017 yesterday - listened to the whole thing a few times already (and I'm not really a big fan, but he's a great showman).
