# Discovering Music

> Find beats through channel-driven discovery, search, producer pages, genre browsing, collections, and radio.

BeatPass discovery is spread across the homepage, channels, search, producer pages, collection pages, and radio. The exact surfaces can vary because several of them are driven by channel configuration rather than a single hard-coded homepage layout.

## Practical Discovery Paths

* Use the homepage and channels when you want curated browsing.
* Use search when you already know a name, vibe, or tag.
* Use genre pages when you want a broad style bucket.
* Use producer pages and collection pages when one good find leads you deeper into a catalog.
* Use radio when you want BeatPass to keep the session moving from a single seed.

<Info>
  Personalized discovery can disappear when you are signed out or do not have enough listening history yet. That is expected behavior in the current channel system.
