If you can tell me which command are only working with >= Python 3.5, I
can see if there's a workaround.
Meanwhile, I'd suggest building python 3.6 yourself, and install it into
/opt/python3.6. Should be simple, all the dependencies will already be
available (some -dev packages will be needed for the compilation).

Well, this goes to show that people have very different expectations.
For me, a playlist with tracks from the same artist / album is exactly
what I want.
My experience is that for some music the results are really very focused
(e.g. for some Pixies tracks, I get 70% Pixies, 10% Frank Black (singer
of the Pixies), 10% Breeders (band of bass player of the Pixies), 10%
very similar stuff), for some it's more varied (but still very similar,
e.g. for a classical track, I get classical, neo classical, minimal
classic, film scores, neo folk, post rock), and others are more varied
still (but still not really this dissimilar - e.g. industrial rock
instead of indie rock)
And yes, sometimes an "inappropiate" track comes up, but nothing really
that jarring (e.g a slow song, although the seed was fast - not sure how
much speed is taken into account).

However, it seems you want actually more variety. You could check if
lower-ranked results are more to your liking (they are sorted by how
similar they are), and it would be possibe to e.g. get 20 results, and
queue 11-20.
