What is the best way to discover and listen to music?

I tend to listen to Spotify but I find it is repetitive and uninteresting, maybe I just can't find the good playlists? I also listen to my local FM radio station but they don't say the artist or song title so if there's something I like I often can't find it again.
I miss the days of going to the shop and buying a CD after spending two hours listening to the sample tracks.
Surely there is a better way? If anyone can point me in the right direction I would be very grateful!
Check out Waitomo Caves. I took my Mother in law there when she visited from England and it was definitely a highlight (we started with a family visit in the Bay of Islands and worked our way south to Wellington over about two weeks).
Edit to mention the Len Lye Centre in New Plymouth, which I went to on a separate trip. Probably too far out of the way for your visit this time, but quite a unique gallery by New Zealand standards. The Hundertwasser Centre in Whangarei is also Amazing, but again probably not for this trip.
Also, you probably already know that New Zealand doesn't have a tipping culture, and we're hoping not to start it please :)
Another edit about road safety. My English In-laws pointed out a quirk that kiwis tend to discuss road distance in hours of travel rather than miles (so from my home town the distance to Christchurch is 2 hours). It's just something to consider when you're planning your route as the distances may seem small compared to the US but the actual travel time might be longer than you expect for the miles travelled due to 'slow' roads.
