No need for a song finder, these six methods can help you listen to songs
1. MixesDB.com
For those who like to spend their time listening to DJ mixes of their favorite artists, Mixcloud and Soundcloud are both good streaming platforms. , Mixcloud and Soundcloud are both good streaming platforms. However, due to stricter and stricter copyright checks and DJs wanting to keep their tracklists mysterious, many mix compilations don't add tracklists when they're uploaded. Of course it still varies from person to person, with some DJs wanting their selections to remain anonymous; others will add unreleased songs to their tracklists to drive eventual album sales.
On MixesDB.com, users can upload their own information about a song, such as title, file size, and duration, as well as information about the artist. In the event that a user is unable to perfect a playlist, other users can help out in the comments section. The site itself is fairly simple in design and basic in operation - there's no interaction or user experience to speak of, it's just a platform similar to early music forums. Unlike the technology used by companies like Shazam, MixesDB relies heavily on users' own creativity and musical tastes to robustly refine the information on each music listing. Give it a try.
2. 1001tracklists.com
Similar to MixesDB.com, this site focuses on user-originated music, but it's more electronic than ambient. Here, you'll be able to hear plenty of remixes from EDM radio programs, as well as eclectic underground music from house and techno artists. In addition to the music listings, the site allows users to add links to artists, providing an in-depth and comprehensive database for the electronic dance music expert or curious novice.
3. The Identification of Music Group
Unless you receive an invitation from a current member of this "secret" Facebook group, you may never get the chance to explore The Identification of Music Group. The Identification of Music Group. I talked to a few of the original organizers and learned that the group is not what it was at the beginning of the project, but rather the most popular place on social media to identify tracks. One could even describe it as a fully-fledged community dedicated to music lovers who are passionate about discovering song titles. The group currently has 29,000 members and is growing by the day.
The process is simple: if you hear a song at a gig and want to know its name, record a video and send it to the group (you have to tag it if it's long) so that other people can respond directly online with possible song titles. There are a few rules that the panelists have to follow, such as it's a good idea for newbies to try Shazam before asking, no surprise there. There are also some very informative how-to guides in the group, such as hitting follow on posts of interest, rather than just leaving a comment, so that you can keep track of updates to each post.
TEXT IN PICTURE: Whoever can hear this song starting at minute 46 will let you name my first child.
Since the group originated in the UK, most of the music being asked about leans more toward those house and techno-influenced DJ compilations from London and other nearby European cities. The group has been expanding its user base recently, so you'll be able to see more posts from the U.S. and a variety of other genres.
Some of the songs in the group are recognized quite quickly, and some of the members are very good at it - for example, I've seen a member hum a random melody on his lips, and just like that, the song was recognized only an hour later. Peer-to-peer exchanges like this online community show exactly how users have changed the way the Internet is used, while also increasing their network of musical relationships with each other.
4. Soundcloud and Mixcloud's comment sections
Most people see these streams as a platform for listening to songs, where they can stay continuously online and play compilations of their favorite music. While the music played online is the main element, the comment section is the part that deserves the most mention. It's a well-known fact that the comment section is often out of order, and there are always some people who like to aggravate conflicts and accuse others. But there are exceptions, such as DJ Bigos from Germany , who uses the comments section to indoctrinate and guide those who are true music lovers, helping them to discover the treasures hidden in the various music compilations.
I talked to Bigos on Soundcloud, and as a music lover, identifying songs on mix compilations has become one of his daily must-dos. By using Shazam (if that's even useful), email, or social media to reach out to other DJs, Bigos has become the man to listen to and recognize songs. Browse through the myriad of eclectic mix compilations on Soundcloud and Mixcloud, and you're bound to see one or two complete tracklists from Bigos, which saves you a lot of time.
5. Reddit
If you're experienced with the popular social networking site, you might also consider using Reddit - another useful music identification tool. For electronic music fans, the site's community is further subdivided into subsections such as /r/dj, /r/edm and /r/electronicmusic, and if you dig a little deeper, you'll find other, even better subsections: try ? /r/mixes, ? /r/tracklist and ? /r/rDIMixes, where you'll not only hear a lot of high-quality remixes, but also full tracklists.
6. Be curious
Using one of these listening services can go a long way towards helping you discover the work of some of the world's best DJs, but it can only help so much. At the end of the day, the best weapon you have as a curious music lover is really just that: your curiosity. As long as you continue to learn more about the genres and DJs that make you tick, you might just evolve into a music monster - one that can recognize songs that even the "internet radar" can't.
