Your next favorite song already exists. There is a banger out there that you would play on repeat for the next three days if you only knew its name.

Unfortunately, I have no clue about your taste in music so I don’t know its name either. But I can help you find someone who does. Let’s find the playlist of your musical soulmate.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Open Spotify, copy the link of your favorite playlist and paste it into the first field.

2. Enter a search term that describes your playlist.

3. Hit “Find a Match!” to search the Spotify database for playlists that match your taste.

Playlists are then categorized by how many songs they have in common with your playlist:?

Creators of highly scoring playlists share significant aspects of your music taste. Discover gems you missed by listening to the songs unique to their playlist.

Tip: Enter the link to one of your “Your Top Songs 20XX” playlists and type a corresponding description into the search box, e.g. “rap 20XX” if you mainly listened to rap in that year.

Cher says:

Great site, but unfortunately it only gives me playlists with <10% similarity to mine, even though my playlist only has about 20 songs and they're all from the same genre
