There’s probably over a hundred million songs in the world and the number is certainly increasing each day. With that number of songs, the chances of you listening to a song that you really like and not knowing the title or the author is pretty high. The old school trick in identifying an unknown song is try to catch one or two sentences of the lyrics and look for it in a search engine such as Google. This method should work most of the time but definitely not for some instrumental genres such as classical, dance, electronic, jazz…
There are apps for smartphone such as SoundHound, TrackID, MusicID and Bing Audio (selected countries only) that make it so much easier to recognize unknown songs by running the app and touching a button to start recording a short clip to perform the music recognition. As for desktop computers, music recognition is also possible through these free software or online services.
1. midomiIf you’ve heard of the popular SoundHound app for smartphones, it actually started off from midomi, a free web based music recognition service. This is why you can find SoundHound being advertised in most parts of midomi’s website and even using their favicon!
Midomi uses flash player to activate the microphone on your computer so that it can capture the music for recognition. All you need to do is click on the button that says “Click and Sing or Hum” followed by clicking the allow button when you are prompted to give camera and microphone access to midomi. You can either sing, hum or even play the music if you’ve managed to record it and midomi will attempt to recognize the song. Fast, no frills and easy to use since there is no need to install any third party application for midomi to work other than Flash Player.

2. Shazam
Shazam is a very popular music identification app for Android with nearly 2 millions reviews averaging 4.4 out of 5 stars! Fortunately you can also find a desktop version but only available to download for Windows 8.1 through the Windows Store.
It is a no brainer to use Shazam. Run the program, click on the big Shazam icon and it will start spinning to start recognizing the music coming from your microphone. Upon finding a match, Shazam will show the album cover together with links to buy the music.
Download Shazam
3. musiXmatch
The music recognition feature called “Music ID” found in musiXmatch is powered by Gracenote and if you didn’t know, Gracenote has the largest database of music and video metadata. This would mean that musiXmatch has the ability to recognize a lot of songs. The desktop version of musiXmatch is also quite similar to Shazam in the sense that it is only available for Windows 8.1 via the Windows Store.
musiXmatch primarily aims to find and match lyrics to your music tracks found on your computer. You can find the Music ID function by right clicking anywhere on the app, and select Music ID from the top menu. Then click on the microphone icon that says “TAP TO START” to start recording the music for recognition.
Download musiXmatch
4. AudioTag
Although AudioTag’s database only has nearly 2 million tracks which is nowhere comparable with Gracenote’s database that is used by musiXmatch, AudioTag has successfully helped to recognize 1.5 million queries so far. It also offers a slightly different method in recognizing music which is either through uploading a full or short fragment of audio or specifying the URL to the audio file in WAV, MP3, OGG, FLAC, FLV, AMR, MP4 and many more.
AudioTag offers a great alternative to music recognition for people who do not have the permission to install third party apps like Shazam and musiXmatch, and also if they do not have a microphone.

5. WatZatSong
If none of the apps or online services above managed to help you recognize an unknown song probably due to the low quality of the recorded music, your last option would be to record or upload the sample music and let the community of WatZatSong help you identify it.
Before you can post a sample, you must first sign up for a free account that does not require verification through email. After signing up and logging in, click on the POST A SAMPLE button located at the top of the website and you’ll given a choice of whether to record the sample using your microphone, or upload the music file. Select the genre that you think the music belongs to and also the language. Enter any comments you have about the music and click the Confirm button.

ReplyBetter than Midomi in my opinion! Comes with 2 modes of search
ReplyThank you for this article. Someone else found the song for me on WatZatSong by listening to the recording I made of 1 minute. Very much appreciated.
ReplyI can tell you I finally found and bought one of my “songs” a couple of days ago after not hearing it for 24 years. It played occasionally on the radio. I did not know the author or the title, and I typically listen only to instrumental music, and the only recording was the one playing in my brain.
This particular one was “Short Stories” by Ray Obiedo, with a distinctive bass rhythm in the first half. These trendy tools like SoundHound and Shazam are absolutely worthless for locating instrumental music sans a complete database.
ReplyAnything based on lyrics is redundant to what a Google search provides and of no value.
The real challenge is this:. You don’t know the artist, you don’t know the title, and you CERTAINLY don’t have a recording. All you have is a tune in your head… From something you heard twice on the radio 30 years ago.
Until we get there, these tools are pretty much worthless.
ReplyUntil we get there, these tools and others like them are pretty much the only chance you’ve got. It’s either slim chance or no chance if you don’t try, I’d choose the first option.
ReplyGreg & Halgoo – if it’s only in your head – try downloading MuseScore or Finale… then write it as music…
then try to get that “identified”…
Replythen try to get that “identified”…
You are right, John. I’ve worked extensively in MuseScore for my own compositions and it’s probably time to do just that… Kudos on that suggestion.

“From something you heard twice on the radio 30 years ago.”
The average Radio play the same bulls**t over and over and over and over.
So what you need to do think about the genre of the song (to reduce the decade it was originally played at the radio since just because it was made 30 years ago, this doenst mean the song was created at that year) and then look at the top billboard charts and the song will be there, I heard at some research paper that 2 new songs are added to the average radio stations (that play the same stuff over and over) each week so at max you have 104 songs per year and some you will discover few seconds before it start that is not what you want.

nice articel, I once found my song within only 7 second provided, then upload it on WatZatSong, and replied in a 7 minutes for an arabic song artist and title!.
ReplyThank you for providing such links. But they are not what I expected. I wish better. I thought different music have different frequency, so if they compare to the songs on their big song library, It may be nothing. I mean that will be way way simple at all. I am wondering that I hate cross plateform incompatibility these days. even Android phone or iphone sucks. What kind of tech, this is 2017. I hate….
ReplyThank you very much that helped a lot …

We have all heard of Shazam App by now, but we know it as an app for mobile phones. Many a times users are looking for Online Shazam or in other words they are looking for the same functionality that is offered by the app called online Shazam. You will run into many sites that will say that they can identify songs for you, but I am yet to see something working.
There’s a lot of ways to take advantage of the technology that exists today. So – of course there’s a way! With just a few simple steps, you can bring this awesome functionality to life even if you’d rather use a computer than a mobile device.
Is Online Shazam impossible?
Well, if you don’t mind me being a bit cheesy then I’ll say “the word impossible itself says I’M Possible”. This is true in this case and that means you can have online Shazam. But developers of Shazam want people to download their app and hence they have not made it possible to use Shazam online.
Being a tech-savvy person I know that it is not difficult. They even have an app for Mac (discussed in next section) so they can definitely create an app for PC as well. However, this will cut into their app downloads and hence they don’t want that.
In order to make Online Shazam possible, they need to simply access your mic to record your input, then compare it with their own database. If an entry is found they can simply return the identified song. There is no big deal in doing that. But they have not done it yet and I doubt if they are planning to do that.
Online Shazam alternatives?
Talking about alternatives to Online Shazam, the first thing that comes to mind is Shazam for computers.
You can get Shazam app for your computer and instead of looking for Shazam online you can avail the same functionality on your PC.
If you are an Apple fanboi and use a mac even then you are good to go. Shazam has an app on the Mac Store for Mac users so you don’t even need to look for Online Shazam. You may be using any of the Mac computers, including Macbooks, Macbook Pro, Macbook Air or even iMac or MacMini this app will work for you. You can download Shazam on the Apple Mac Store.
Midomi – Online Shazam with little less accuracy
Another alternative would come from the next big music app Soundcloud. Did you know it was known as Midomi earlier? Well, if you go to Midomi’s site you can hum or sing a tune and it will find you the song you are humming.
This is not as accurate as Shazam to identify a song, but it is better than nothing at all. Also, during our trial we noticed that if you sing for about half a minute the accuracy goes up significantly. So give it a try if you are looking to identify that tune stuck in your head.
That’s all people. That’s what we had for you on that topic. If you have a question or need or have any more information on Online Shazam please do leave a comment. It is always appreciated.
