How do I turn on my brain and find a video of an up and coming DJ that makes all their music in another language but mixes it with music that I really like without a recommendation engine showing that people who like similar music to me enjoy them as well?

There's a lot of content on YouTube besides just how to videos and often times top results from a direct search are not always teaching styles that I like.

Don't talk to me like that. My post does not invite this kind of reaction.

Don't suggest I don't use my brain, please. For this purpose I built my own feed reader (as part of all kinds of social functions for my website system, link in bio), which I also use to scan for new videos on Youtube's channels that I follow. It works great. Sometimes I want to discover new channels and go directly to Youtube.

This is exactly what I said in my OP. I searched for topics on Youtube to discover new videos and channels, it's hard and doesn't work.
