I think it depends how obscure your taste is. If more open and obscure, the best way I found is to listen to streaming college radio stations and find some DJs you like on those stations.
There is an effort that it takes to get on the airwaves that is not there if just anyone can play music online. The effort acts as a quality filter on the person's taste and passion.
Beyond that, I always check out what Pitchfork thinks is good new music.
The youtube algorithm has also recommended me some of my favorite, more obscure artists but that happens like once every 2-3 years.
