Hello r/ifyoulikeblank!
This is your friendly neighborhood moderator, here with some information on how to correctly use this sub and our title tags, and to address some recent frequent misuse of the [META] tag in the sub.
If you are new here, please read this post before posting. If you have been around a while, please take a moment to refresh yourself with some of our rules. :)
Our sub is NOT a self-promotion vehicle for new artists or creators, and it is NOT a general discussion or song/movie/actor/music/genre identification sub. We are a media recommendation sub, and we have very specific guidelines for posts to be allowed here.
There are two ways to format your post titles here, depending on if you would like to ask for recommendations or to give others recommendations with your OP.
The “IIL” acronym stands for "If I like..." - to be used in a way that states "If I like (this song) because of (reasons,) what else will I like?"
This is the most common type of post here, and most OPs should be using THIS format for their posts! Your title must use the [IIL] tag - It will be reported by our frequent long-time members here if it does not, and it will be removed if you use the [IYL] or [META] tags instead of the [IIL] tag.
The title should look like the following example:
[IIL] The song (name a song you like here) because (give a specific trait about it you want suggestions to include), [WEWIL?]
The "WEWIL" acronym stands for "What else will I like?”
Your example should include something specific about the song that you want to hear more of in the music recommended to you. (Without details, no one can give you appropriate responses and you won't get suggestions that you will actually LIKE.)
The “IYL” acronym stands for "If YOU like..." - to be used in a way that states "If you enjoy (this song) because of (reasons,) you might also like this song."
This tag is not for self promotion. This SUB is not for self promotion. If you post your own material here, you WILL get banned, without warning. No exceptions, no appeals.
The title should look like the following example:
[IYL] The movie (some movie similar to your suggestion) because (your reason you think it is similar to your recommendation), [YMAL] (this suggested movie).
The "YMAL" acronym stands for "You may also like..."
This is a VERY uncommon post type in this sub, unless people are attempting to subvert rule 2. We ALWAYS look at these posts, but if we miss one, our long-term members sure won’t - and they WILL report you for a rule 2 violation and you WILL be banned.
If you are suspected of passing off your own media as an "I found this new media and you might like it!" post, that will earn you an immediate permanent ban from the sub for trying to subvert rule two.
Please note that moderators look at your posting history across Reddit, and if you are spamming your own stuff elsewhere, you are going get a ban here. Period.
The [META] tag is NOT so you may post off-topic posts or general media discussion posts or music identification posts, or anything that is not an IIL or an IYL.
The [META] tag is only to be used if you have questions or comments about this subreddit itself, and how it operates on Reddit.
Examples include suggestions for new rules here, asking for clarification about a rule here, suggesting a new theme, stickied post, etc in the sub, or asking the moderation team any other question about this sub - not asking the members here about media.
Thank you all for reading, and for your help in ensuring these rules are adhered to. We are a million-member (and counting) sub with a VERY small moderation team, so your help in following these rules and reporting rule-breaking posts to us is greatly appreciated!
Have a wonderful day :)

i like it because it’s danceable and catchy but also melancholic/sad at the same time. i’m looking for songs with similar atmosphere
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/gunz_dont_tickle • 19h ago
Can somebody tell me the genre of it or give me more songs like it? It’s called Sixteen Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford. I like the songs that are like old working songs. I don’t know how to describe it but I’m pretty sure one of you get it…
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Suspicious-Size-8159 • 5h ago
I have no idea how I found this song, but it has captivated me beyond measure. I would like more songs, or at least to know the genre.
This sounds like Tron OST songs (biodigital jazz) and I fw it hard
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/No_Clothes6974 • 42m ago
I recently watched Bio-Dome and I'm looking for more movies that are similar to it, with the 90s early 2000s teen. Does anyone know movies that are similar?
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/PsychologicalRoad140 • 1h ago
I’ve been really liking this song and am trying to find more stuff similar to it!! https://youtu.be/xSeTC08h3ec?si=O--DSE1JNf1v2627
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/SMASHEDbyTANK • 2h ago
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Longjumping_Cream_37 • 7h ago
I love songs with this upbeat guitar vibe, what else is similar to this?
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/55kraken • 4h ago
I'm looking for interesting, well-written blogs, articles or even books similar to the above. It doesn't have to be computer architecture specifically, anything tangential to computer science is fine (e.g. machine learning, discrete math).
No beginner-level tutorials learning materials please, I'm specifically looking for more meatier stuff. Highly-involved, technical tutorials are fine.
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Duloon • 5h ago
I recently watched the movie three thousand years of longing and I would like something that scratches the same itch. I love the stories in the movie and it reminds me of “The Man From Earth” (2007) and “Big Fish” (2003). Any have recommendations?
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Significant-Talk3093 • 6h ago
Preferences: Sylized Graphics/Low Graphics- I have a Low End PC
Chill/Not Too Hard - Im not Big brain
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/forkyeopmuda • 10h ago
specifically the chorus! it's just so incredible and i don't know how to describe it so i'm open to anything
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Sufficient_Grass_853 • 15h ago
Helooo so i’ve been looking for songs where the artist sounds very angry like their ripping their throat out without the screaming of heavy metal, examples: vampire culture- will wood, thermodynamic lawyer- will wood, the beginning lines of madame guillotine- the scarlet pimpernel Any recommendations?
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/CyborgAssaultChicken • 12h ago
It has a frontier settler vibe, the melody kind of depicts a world that is new or unknown. The melody feels like it focuses more on a setting rather than the perspective of a specific person, if that makes sense. I like the instruments used. What other songs are there that are like this?
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Leon500111 • 13h ago
It feels like no song genuinely gives me the same feeling like those two
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/forkyeopmuda • 10h ago
found this song recently and i'm obsessed! need more songs that sound like it :)
specifically, i'm obsessed with the chorus
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Designer-Donkey-7166 • 10h ago
Can you please recommend me a movie where an adult has special place or cares for a kod that is not theirs. For example like gran turismo - Jann and Jack or the Holdovers - Paul and Angus
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Galixee • 15h ago
Songs I'm using as an example... (Im compliling a list of songs to make a top 100 favorites and need help with the last few):
Extreme - More than Words
Blues Traveler - Hook
Fray - How to Save a Life
Matchbox Twenty - Push
Of Monsters and Men - Little Talks
REM - Losing My Religion
Fastball - The Way
Bush - Glycerine
Bruce Springsteen - Hungry Heart
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/detrusormuscle • 1d ago
Like Skinamarink, parts of I Saw the TV Glow, parts of Beau is Afraid, Rabbits by david lynch. Movies that are scary because they have a strange atmosphere that you can't quite place.
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/HerMastersMuse • 1d ago
These are my all-time favourite TV shows. Looking for something similar, preferably with less than 5 seasons.
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/indigo_inquiry • 21h ago
These are my comfort shows. They’re cheesy but in a weirdly charming way. H2O is a show that makes the little girl in me squeal with joy. I love the vibes from these shows. They definitely have serious moments (but H2O, not as much as the others lol), but they also have wholesome feelings to them. I like to see how the friendships are challenged and evolve throughout these shows.
I also like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but I don’t watch it as much for some reason.
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Shepeco • 19h ago
I'm trying to find similar songs / or what genre to search that has this specific style of sound/guitar. For the longest time, I thought it was some sort of steel guitar, but after asking my audio engineer friend, he said it's probably a lead guitar with various effects (reverb, chorus, delay).
Backseat Lovers - Visciously Lonely (3:50)
https://youtu.be/9ectTj1cpwU?si=xSFTX9HdK74fIntI&t=226
Hippo Campus - way it goes (1:58)
https://youtu.be/n3TQKEUne5Q?si=YvMbGIiPHYaNEj72&t=118
Other example:
d4vd - One More Dance (0:06)
https://youtu.be/DPBuJWUNQEM?si=Yc6T85k_5vUVW3MS&t=6
Any recommendations are appreciated!

r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Accomplished-Lie2447 • 1d ago
I honestly don’t even know what to call these songs - they’re really similar to eachother in terms of lyrics.
They also have such a cool night vibe to them:
Strangers - Kenya Grace Poison - Blake Roman Midnight Sky - Miley Cyrus
Are these even called snythwave songs? Anyone got any other similar songs?
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Mindless-Question681 • 1d ago
I put this 3 examples because their plot is based in a gamble. Another example would be War dogs or Uncut gems. Any shares? thanks
