Something like Trakt, but for music?

Basically title. Is there some service that can be linked to the *arrs for rating music, discovering trending stuff etc?

Last.fm was around before Trakt - I would assume you can still scrobble and rate and receive suggestions.
- Still works perfectly. I used to use it with Subsonic, now with YT Music. Plenty of music players support scrobbling to it still.
  
  Lidarr can import from a last.fm users playlist, or last.fm tags. Can also follow Spotify lists, and monitor Apple Music for top albums and auto grab them.
- Here's a list of compatible players as of 2019.
There is Last.fm, Libre.fm, as well as ListenBrainz.
you scrobble with your subsonic server or client or spotify to https://listenbrainz.org which belongs to https://musicbrainz.org/ which is the database for music like tmdb or tvdb.

edit: no, listenbrainz is not yet as mature as trakt. considering that listenbrainz is like tmdb, there needs to be another service for music like trakt which isn't there, there is no working service that does that.
- Considering the scale of metadata musicbrainz has, I am surprised that it still needs more work according to your comment.
  You probably mean usability and not the backend/data, right?
  
  Musicbrainz has a lot of data. Listenbrainz has only 25k users. What's currently popular is heavily skewed. You can't rate music properly. The android app isn't starting at all. No pwa support. It needs months of your data in order to generate recommendations. Favs/likes/bookmarks aren't synced with a subsonic server. Playlists aren't synced with the connected service. It's just not there yet, if ever. I scrobble. I don't know why I still do it, maybe in the hopes that one day it'll skyrocket and become useful. One day. Maybe the financial backer is missing. Most importantly, the userbase is missing. I have contributed so many albums to musicbrainz and I could still contribute hundreds more, if not much more. I do not have the time to contribute so much stuff that I'm don't even love that much. It's just not important enough. It's like openstreetmap, owners do not care about adding their own info to it. As long as it's like that it's unimportant and not that useful.
I would recommend Pano Scrobbler for Android. Helpa to Scrobble music toh Last.fm and other services.
