The world of dating apps has been heavily populated with plenty of options that promise to connect potential lovers through various criteria.

On Bumble, women are given the first move to start a conversation with their matches. On the other hand, Raya is an exclusive app used by public figures and celebrities to find love interests in a curated and hard-to-get-into platform.

Each platform offers something different and unique that sets them apart from their competitors.

But what about those seeking connection based on their love for music? That’s where the new dating app makromusic comes in.

Whether you’re vibing to the same indie playlists, headbanging to rock classics, or discovering new beats, this app promises to harmonise your love life with your musical tastes.

Here’s how it works: users link their Spotify or Apple Music accounts to their profiles upon signing up, showcasing their favourite artists, songs, and genres.

While other dating apps let you connect your profile with Instagram to show off your feed and aesthetic, this app only allows users to link their go-to music application—sounds interesting, right?

The app then matches people based on shared interests in music, giving you the chance to bond over a mutual love for that obscure band or the latest viral hit.

But if you’re curious about true compatibility beyond shared playlists, makromusic lets you dive deeper.

You can fill in additional details about yourself, such as your hobbies, astrological signs, favourite foods, and more. These extra touches give potential matches a well-rounded picture of who you are—because sometimes it’s not just about the music but the person behind it.

When you match with someone, the app breaks down what you have in common—shared songs, favourite artists, preferred genres, and mutual music tastes—in a detailed presentation.

In our honest opinion, these features are game-changers. They make starting a conversation far less daunting, sparing you from the awkwardness of a basic “Hello” and giving you instant icebreakers to bond over.

After using makromusic for about a week, we can say the app shows potential, though it’s not perfect just yet

There were minor glitches here and there, but nothing significant enough to become a dealbreaker. However, one major downside is its current user base—or lack thereof.

Since the app is still new and people discovered it mostly through Instagram ads, there aren’t many local users onboard yet.

As a result, you’re more likely to match with users from overseas, which could make finding a romantic connection less feasible. That said, it’s still a great platform for meeting fellow music lovers and forging new friendships.

Who knows? With time and more word-of-mouth buzz, perhaps Malaysians will pay attention to makromusic, giving it a chance to become the go-to app for finding love through the shared language of music.

Overall, makromusic isn’t just for romance—it’s also a platform for finding new friends or concert buddies. So, whether you’re looking for love or just someone to share a festival lineup with, makromusic might just be your perfect match.
