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 :)

Recently discovered this by accident, i'd love to listen more of this electro/synth pop genre kind of music, old or new, male or female, doesn't matter, i wanna expand more of this genre. Thanks
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/HotTomatoSoup4u • 7h ago
My favorite artist is Caroline Polachek, here’s a list of some albums I like that are in the pop sphere. I also love spoken word songs/segments, either with cool production or minimal depending on the vibes.
Desire I want to turn into you - Caroline Polachek
Imaginal Disk- Magdalena Bay
Choke Enough-Oklou
Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides- SOPHIE
Speak for Yourself- Imogen Heap
Collapsed in Sunbeams- Arlo Parks
U- Underscores
How I’m Feeling Now- Charli XCX
Trinkets-Ashnikko

I love shows like Mr. Robot where you never really know what's going on, and you're always surprised by the newest messed-up plot twist
A couple more examples.
Severance
Unknown (movie)
Id be eternally grateful if someone could reccomend what they enjoy that fits this genre.
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/CaII_Me_Al_5 • 16h ago
My favourite songs at the moment are:
The Killers: Caution, Somebody Told Me, When You Were Young, The Man
Franz Ferdinand: Take Me Out, No You Girls, Bullet
Arctic Monkeys: You Probably Couldn't See For The Lights But You Were Staring Straight At Me, I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor, 505
I like more hopeful stuff rather than melancholic, dark or upbeat. Really catchy riffs and sing-alongableness are definitely important. Draggy vocals, hard to listen to distortion and overrepetetiveness. I really like anthem arena style pop rock asw.
Thanks for your help!

This is probably my favorite Chevelle songs, there's a FEW other songs I listen to that have a similar vibe, but none of them hit exactly like that one. I'm having a rough night and I need more songs like it. THANK YOU 🙏

These guys are my favorite band and I think they’re criminally underrated.

THIS SONG IS SO GOOD!! It’s so dreamy and summery and gives like the best feeling of like being in nature on a really sunny summer day. I love how refreshing and calm it feels while also being a really fast paced, layered track. Does anybody know of songs that sound and feel similar to it?

I recently discovered Kareem Rahma through his Subway Takes reels and then checked out his YouTube channel. I watched a few of his travel videos and really enjoyed them.
I realised I love videos that combine travel, fun, and real, meaningful interactions with people. Like I enjoy some of Gordon Ramsay's travel and food videos.
I'm looking for more YouTube channels or videos with a similar vibe. Something entertaining, adventurous, and real, where you get to explore new places, meet interesting people, and learn about different cultures.
I'm also open to recommendations that don't fit this exact style. Feel free to share your personal favourites!
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/SeLeveAussi • 15h ago
Hopefully I'm using the term "program music" right, I just learned of it.
I'm looking more specifically for pieces that represent a physical thing, like the planets or animals in my examples, rather than an experience or a story.

i am obsessed with movies/shows such as : i am not okay with this, the end of the f***ing world, me and earl and the dying girl, wayne, dinner in america, and lisa frankenstein, however i feel like it’s so hard to find films & movies of a similar vibe! and plus, i don’t even know how to describe said vibe..
but despite that, does anyone have any suggestions? :,)
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/mysteriouspenguin • 1d ago
I'e really enjoyed Art of Doubt by Metric and Apathy by Astrophysics because it's not two minutes long, it's not a "vibe", it's not minimalistic, it's just a catchy riff with cool production. Anything like that?
Don't say Daft Punk or Justice, I'm already well aware of them
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/OutrageousInternal89 • 1d ago
Here's the song, I'm a big fan of the singer's vocals and how desperate and raw the vocals sound. Also a big fan of the instrumentation, which is somewhat heavy and dark but still is melodic and not overtly depressing. Any ideas?

r/ifyoulikeblank • u/Real-Mongoose-6805 • 1d ago
Looking for films, shows, comics and books. Media set it in a grounded extension of our world. Doesn’t necessarily have to be focused on climate or politics just well thought out examinations of our time set further down the road. I also enjoyed the podcast Case 63.
Thanks!
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/nutsack89 • 23h ago
honorable mentions include
Shooting stars - bag raiders
aaaand whatever you guys suggest
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/IrizGMD • 1d ago
I really want more games of that chase heavy style that make your adrenaline go up!
I'm thinking of:
-Outlast 1 and 2
-Amnesia
-Resident Evil 7
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/quaxoid • 1d ago
Outside of the Hitman franchise, I'm aware earlier games in that franchise have disguises. I want something different while also something with a similar mechanic. I don't know of any other games where you can take disguises of any guard or worker.
r/ifyoulikeblank • u/sadacidentAntiProVax • 1d ago
hard to explain this vibe i like any more than that

I also really liked the show Heated Rivalry so something along the lines of these. I just want a gay movie that makes me consumed in their love and has a sense of freedom to it etc.
