Spotify playlist finders seem to be the perfect option for discovering new music. Yet, many of these “playlist finders” are algorithm-driven and you will quickly feel predictable in terms of the results. Here, though, lies something entirely different: six of the most unique ones among them. The first three allow you to enter songs and find user-made playlists include the searched songs. The second set of three lets you uncover new ones using just keywords about genre, mood, or theme.
We’ll even show you how to take your playlists offline with StreamFox for Music. Plus, a few extra tips and tricks are shared to enrich your music experience.
Part 1: Top 3 Spotify Playlist Finders for Finding a Specific Song
Each tool here unlocks a new way to find the music you're looking for and each has its own approach. The goal isn’t to overwhelm you with a list that overlaps, but to offer options that work together. Let’s dive in.
1. Chosic Playlist Finder by Song or Artist
Inspired by Google’s layout, Chosic Playlist Finder acts as a search engine and is tailored for Spotify playlists. You can search for new playlists by entering one, two, or multiple song names (or Artists’ names). After you press search, it gets right to work. And in seconds, playlists with your chosen tracks will appear.
Once your results load, you can refine the results by filtering playlists (made by Spotify itself or by individual users). You can also sort results by “relevance” (closest matches) or “date” (newest finds). Or use other filters to narrow down the recommendations, such as the number of likes and number of songs, among other things.
Here is how to use it:
Step 1. Begin by opening the Chosic Playlist Finder tool. Enter the songs or artists you’d like to find. And click the Search icon.
Step 2. Scroll through the results that show each playlist’s details, like its creator, track count, and a preview of the album art. When you spot one that calls to you, click to open it directly in Spotify.
2. Vibify
Unlike Chosic, which focuses on specific songs, Vibify focuses on keywords. Its results prioritize playlist titles that match your search terms first. Then, it expands the recommendations that feature your chosen songs. Still, each search will load a bounty of playlists you can scroll through. Vibify also doesn’t crowd the screen with filters or previews like Chosic results. Instead, it shows just the essentials: the playlist title, creators, track count, and the number of saves.
Its charm lies in its democratic approach that presents both widely followed playlists and hidden gems in its curation.
Here is a preview of how it works:
Step 1. Head over to Vibify main page. In the search field, type the song title, artist name, or keyword that speaks to you. Next, hit Enter.
Step 2. Playlists that fit your keywords will appear one after another, along with titles, creators, and track counts. Tap on any playlist title to jump right into Spotify.
3. Script Raccoon
Script Raccoon carves its niche by turning inward. The above two Spotify playlist finders look outward when you search a song. Script
Raccoon’s results, on the other hand, will list all the playlists featuring that song, even if they’re only close matches. However, even for such a simple job, it offers some customizations, like the “sensitive” search option to find similar songs without losing different versions. Or, you can locate exact duplicates through song ID.
Here is how to make use of Script Raccoon:
Step 1. Go to the Script Raccoon site. Start it by clicking the Authorize button.
Step 2. Log in with your Spotify details and allow Script Raccoon to work with your library.
Step 3. In the search box, enter a song title or song ID. Then, click Find your playlists and it will show you all the playlists that include that song.
Part 2: Top 3 Spotify Playlist Finders for Discovering New Songs
Here is a look at three tools that blend data and creativity to uncover music that aligns with your unique taste.
1. Magic Playlist Creator
Magic Playlist Creator spins a single song into a world of tracks. You can drop in a song and it will curate a lineup that echoes its style and mood. It gives you full control too. For instance, there is a “Let Me Tweak” button that opens up a world of customization sliders.

Here are the steps to use it:
Step 1. Jump into Magic Playlist and type a song name.
Step 2. Magic Playlist will generate a list. You can tweak the recommendations and lock it in by clicking Save on Spotify.
2. Playlist Miner
Compared to Magic Playlist, Playlist Miner isn’t just some standard recommendation engine. It’s more like a popularity radar that will highlight the songs everyone agrees on. All you have to do is type in a theme and it will allow you to capture the crowd’s choices.
Here are the steps to use:
Step 1. Visit the Playlist Miner site via your preferred browser. Define your playlist theme (Chill, Workout, etc.) in the search box. Then, click the Find Playlists button.
Step 2. You’ll see a list of playlist titles and track counts. Click Find Top Tracks to generate a consolidated list of songs (the most featured ones in that genre).
Step 3. Once the search is complete, click Save Playlist to Spotify.
3. Discover Quickly
Created by Aliza and Edward during a Spotify hackathon, Discover Quickly brings Spotify's discovery feature to life on a single page. As soon as you land, you’ll be greeted with the lineup of Spotify categories. Nothing unusual.

Follow these steps to use it:
Step 1. Head over to discoverquickly.com and log in with Spotify.
Step 2. On the main interface, use the search bar to explore. To save a track, simply click the + button or open it on Spotify directly.

Follow Friends and Influencers for Fresh Finds
Spotify lets you follow your friends’ public profiles. So, head to their profiles and take a look at their public playlists, which are often filled with personal favorites. Plus, you’re not limited to friends alone. You can also follow influencers and music critics.
Join Spotify Communities and Forums
Online communities are hotspots for finding new playlists (the best ones too!). For instance, users on subreddits like r/Spotify and r/listentothis actively share and discuss playlists (curated around unique themes, moods, and genres). Besides, don’t forget that these spaces are updated constantly.
Discover Playlists via Social Media Hashtags
On Facebook and Twitter, hashtags like #SpotifyPlaylist and #MusicDiscovery will connect you directly with playlists posted by enthusiasts. Adding the right hashtags, such as a specific genre, artist, or mood, will narrow down the results even further.
Explore External Music Blogs for Spotify Playlist Recommendations
Sites like Pitchfork, NME, iMusician, and Bandcamp Daily are known for their deep dives into specific genres and emerging artists. Each blog has its own unique voice.
