In past years I've turned this thread into a huge spreadsheet. My friends and I inevitably get a few chuckles and sometimes even occasionally check out a band we would have otherwise skipped as we look through it.

So -- bump!

Let me grab some low hanging fruit:
If you like KCRW, you'll like Jason Bentley.

More snarky variant:
If you like adult-contemporary electronica, you'll like Jason Bentley. (Probably more suited to when he was still hosting Metropolis...)

Maybe a stretch:
If you like Jurassic 5's more latin-influenced tunes, you'll like 3Ball MTY (and vice versa).

If you like turntablism and EDM, you'll like Birdy Nam Nam.

Easy? This is like...common sense. You can't dislike one if you truly like the other, though I'd pick flogging molly
Also I don't really see the arcade fire - monsters & men relationship.
I just hope eds right about Jessie.

Yeah i was iffy about this one too (hence the "may") They are both spacey british rock. I like both, and feel they share some sonic qualities, I can't speak for everyone though.
