Hello plop144,


It sounds like you want a way to create personalized playlists in Apple Music. Is that right? If so, I believe I have a resource that can help you improve your Apple Music recommendations. 


Selecting your favorite genres and artists is a great initial step to help adjust what's recommended to you. You may have this set up already, but because our taste and mood with music can change, you can always reset your favorite genres and artist at any time. The link I’ll be providing will show you how.


Also, make sure you consistently tell Apple Music what you love. Telling Apple Music what you love and dislike improves future recommendations. 


Lastly you can utilize the For You section in Apple Music for personalized content based on your interactions within Apple Music. For You lets you discover playlists created by Apple Music experts, albums based on your tastes, and music your friends are listening to.


Take a look at the following article. It touches on everything I’ve described.
