According to  Last.fm I listened to 45% new albums and 34% new artists during 2020.  In 2019, it was 42% and 36%, respectively.

I'm about the same. 60 to 70% newly discovered music from whatever era I discovered it. I'm buying a bunch of albums every year and need to give them sufficient time. I struggle to find sufficient time for the existing collection.

If you were to put a percentage of your listening time, how much of it is playing music you discovered or first heard and noticed in the last 12 months?

I don’t assume anyone has data here, but take a guess.

Your music library can consist of everyrhing from the first music in your life you became a fan of to what you discovered today and everything between.

By «recently discovered» I don’t mean recently released. If you found something from 1964 today, it counts the same as something from 2021.

For myself, I find that I most of the time listen to recently discovered music. Not that I get bored of the music I’ve heard a lot, but there is so much music being made every year and I often find old stuff that is new and exciting. Maybe 60-70% of the time I listen to music that is new to me (last 12 months).
