In every instance these have been songs and artists I’d never heard (or even heard of) before.īut the recordings contained the necessary clues and context, to which I applied some deductive reasoning and research done on freely-available websites. Here’s how I’ve gone about it, in case crowdsourcing isn’t working for you. Not because I’m Brainypants McMusicface to the contrary. Many times, without what felt like much work, I’ve been able to successfully ID such songs for strangers. There are entire communities-on websites like Wat Zat Song?, Midomi, and Reddit-devoted to crowdsourcing the solutions. They’ve had no luck Googling lyrics or playing the song into Soundhound, Shazam, or friends’ ears.
It’s pretty common in music circles to encounter people who have spent literally decades trying to identify an obscure song on an old mixtape.
