Music streaming service YouTube Music gained an ‘activity’ bar with mood filters back in 2020. This bar provides users with a dedicated personalised homepage full of playlists perfectly suited for the selected mood. Now, many users are noticing new mood filters in YouTube Music.
According to a report by 9To5Google, YouTube Music has gained five new mood filters. The new filters are: Cry, Party, Romance, Feel good and Sleep.

After receiving the new mood filters, several users shared them on Reddit.
Similar to the existing filters – Commute, Energize, Focus, Relax, and Workout – selecting multiple filters will give you a mix of all the selected filters.
The new mood filters are starting to appear on mobile apps and the web client, but have not yet been widely rolled out. The usual timeline for such feature rollouts is about 2-3 weeks.
Last month, YouTube introduced a new personalised music discovery feature for YouTube Music. According to the company, the Samples tab is a seamless feed of short-form video segments to get you to your new favourite music. Powered by the world’s largest catalogue of music videos, this personalised feed explores the depths and breadth of the YouTube Music library so that there’s always something new to listen to. Moreover, with each sample, you can quickly add the song to your collection, share it with friends, create your next favourite playlist, kick off a great new radio station, watch the full video, visit the album page, or even use the song to create your own Short. And for artists, the Samples tab provides another way to find a new audience and build a community on YouTube.
