Tunefind puts some stellar playlists at your fingertips

Music choice can make or break any movie or TV episode. But when you hear a song you love or recognize but don’t know the name of, it can totally take you out of the story. Instead of paying attention to the plot, you’re frantically trying to open Shazam before the song ends or find music by lyrics on Google. If this sounds familiar, we have the perfect tool for you: Tunefind. This website lets you easily search for songs from almost any movie or show. Read on to learn more about Tunefind and how to find music from your favorite TV show or movie easily.

What is Tunefind?

Tunefind is a massive online database of music used in TV shows, movies, and video games. The library is massive, covering thousands of new releases and old favorites. Users can search for a specific show/movie or browse the latest episodes and movies on the homepage. If you make an account, you can also set up alerts for your favorite shows or movies to receive updates on the latest episodes or changes to the tracklist.

For television series, the listings are broken down by season and episode. Some listings even include scene descriptions that explain what was happening in the show while the song was playing. This makes it even easier to find the name and artist of the track you’re looking for.

Song listings are submitted by Music Supervisors (the professionals who select music used in media) or users like you. The site uses a voting system to prioritize accuracy. Users can vote on whether the listed song (or version of it) is correct. Once enough users vote, the song is confirmed with a green checkmark; if it’s incorrect, the track is removed from the song list.

The website is also updated regularly. For television programs that are currently on the air, new episodes with complete track lists are posted within minutes of the end of the episode.

Name that tune

Using Tunefind is simple. Use the search bar at the top of the site to look up a TV show, movie, or artist. The website has listings for media across all genres, including reality shows and late-night talk shows. For recently released movies and episodes, you can browse the homepage. Or, for shows that haven’t aired yet, you can check the on-site TV schedule and create an account to set up alerts for new song listings.

Once you’ve found the song you’re looking for, you can choose to listen to it on a variety of popular music streaming platforms, including Amazon Music, Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Users can also discover new music by checking out Tunefind’s Trending Music page, which lists the top ten most popular songs of the week.

You can find music by sound with Shazam or look up lyrics online. But why put in all the effort when someone else has already done it for you? Never again will you be plagued by the agony of trying to remember that one song you heard on that show the other night. With Tunefind, all you need is the name of the movie or TV show you’re watching. In minutes, you’ll have the name of the song, the artist who sings it, and every other song used in the series or movie. Isn’t that so much easier?

Over the past 20 years, true crime has become one of the defining genres of our time. There are dozens of podcasts, movies, and especially TV series devoted to the topic, so much so that it can be hard to figure out which ones are actually worth your time.

True crime has become so popular that the best shows in this genre have even garnered awards attention, although more shows have been nominated than have actually won major awards.

The best suspense movies you can watch on Netflix
These titles are sure to leave you on the edge of your seat until the credits roll

Suspense is not really a genre, at least not on its own terms. And yet, when you're watching a suspenseful movie, you recognize the sensation almost instantly. Netflix, for its part, has a pretty outstanding lineup of suspenseful movies that are all available to you at the click of a button.

While not all of these movies were heavy-hitters with awards bodies, many of them should have been. They're incredibly well made, in addition to being smart and sometimes pulpy genre fare.

Because it's still a relatively new streaming service, and because it didn't come into existence with a back catalog, Apple TV+'s library is thinner than most. Even so, the streamer has managed to build a subscriber base in part by investing heavily in quality shows, and specifically in quality shows with a sci-fi twist.

Severance is one of the best shows on television, and it seems like a guarantee that it will be heavily awarded at the next Emmy ceremony. Severance is one of my favorite shows, too, but it's far from the only sci-fi series on Apple. We've pulled together a list of the best shows available over there if you're looking for great science fiction:"
