Rules

1

No songs from the Hall of Fame

Songs listed in our Hall of Fame will be automatically removed.

2

Discussions posts "about, of, or for" the author.

Submissions are for the community to participate in and enjoy. Submissions in r/Music should prompt broad discussion, and should not require participation by the OP. (Unless it's a celebrity AMA.)

3

Title Formatting: Artist - Title [Genre]

Title formatting: Artist - Title [Genre]

Music should be titled using this formatting, including spacing, dashes, and [brackets] for the genre.

Titles should be objective, not editorialized. To include interesting details, personal stories, or other information, simply reply with a comment after you've submitted your post.

Example:

Rush - The Spirit of Radio [Prog Rock] (1980) Live in Canada

4

Artist repost limitations

Music by artists who've recently had a popular post (100+ upvotes) is automatically removed for the next 30 days to ensure content remains fresh. If your post is removed, consider trying another artist.

5

No clickbait

Music should stand on its own, and titles should be objective. No emotional appeals, asking for votes, or other 'clickbait.' Editorializing should be left to the comments.

6

High-quality discussions only

Discussion posts should be thoughtfully crafted to encourage meaningful, civil, and constructive conversation; avoid low-effort requests for artist, song, or album recommendations. Cross-posts must be edited to remove clickbait.

7

Follow Self-promo guidelines

It is your responsibility to read and understand Reddit's guidelines on self-promotion before submitting your own music.

Musical celebrities are exempt. For verification, contact the staff privately.

For original music, double-check your submission after 2-3 minutes. Ensure the flair is set to 'I Made This'.

8

No request-style posts

Avoid personal requests or help identifying a tune. This includes 'tip of my tongue' style posts, or recommendations based on your interests.

For fresh music by smaller artists, check out r/listentothis
For interest-based suggestions, you could visit r/ifyoulikeblank or r/ifyoulikeblankmusic
For help identifying a song or melody, try r/tipofmytongue or r/namethatsong.

9

Link to official channels

Must link to official artist channels

Whenever possible, always use links to artists' official channels. Exceptions are made for exclusive releases, region-restrictions, certain live performances, and other circumstances.

10

No solicitation

The r/Music community thrives on genuine interaction and exploration, not on information gathering.

Therefore, we do not allow posts requesting:

Surveys, questionnaires, or data-mining
Signups, votes, or participation in studies
Recommendations based on specific criteria
Crowdfunding, requests to donate, enter contests
Personal information

Text posts should contribute to quality discussions. Share your thoughts on music, ask open-ended questions, or spark interesting debates.

11

No unauthorized music

No links to pirated, leaked, or unreleased music. No promotion of piracy or similar acts.

This subreddit is for discussing and sharing legally available music only.

No links to pirated, leaked, or unreleased music, such as torrent sites, file-sharing platforms, or unofficial YouTube channels. No promotion of piracy or similar acts, such as encouraging others to download or stream music illegally. This rule helps to respect the rights and efforts of the creators and distributors of music.

12

Stay on-topic

Stay relevant. Submissions must be explicitly related to music, music technology, or the music industry.

Statements and actions by musicians not relevant to their musical work are not allowed. Articles discussing significant events in musicians’ lives are subject to staff discretion. If in doubt, contact the moderation team.

Avoid 'anniversary' and 'on this date' posts unless they're meaningful and relevant.

Room for interpretation allowed for highly-engaging posts.

13

Be respectful, follow Reddiquette

Don't kill the vibe. Use common sense. Maintain civility and treat others with respect.

Avoid discussions on hot-button issues.

Users must follow Reddiquette at all times. It's your responsibility to read and understand these guidelines.

14

No playlist posts

No playlists sharing/gathering and similar posts.

Submissions should be limited to individual songs. This helps ensure a diverse selection of music from many different users. If you want to share or request playlists, you might visit r/IMadeAPlaylist or r/SpotifyPlaylists instead. This rule helps to promote music discovery and appreciation.

Avoid making posts requesting music for yourself alone. Start a proper discussion and invite everyone to share with everybody involved.

15

No low-effort, hastily-written or AI content.

Discussions on r/Music should promote meaningful and substantive discussions about music-related topics. Hastily written/off-topic text posts that lack depth, context, or the potential for engaging conversations will likely be removed.

Organic, human content only. Sharing AI-generated content is grounds for a permanent ban.
