Ask HN: Looking for the Shazam for Song Fragments
2 points by mfalcon on June 2, 2023 | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments
Yesterday I was listening to Perfect Circle's "The Noose" and I noticed a particular pattern I really like about this song that I remember listening to in other songs, but there's no way to look for them.

It'd be great to have an app which receives some short fragment of a song and returns a list of songs containing similar sounding patterns.

Do you know if something like this already exists?



I'm not familiar with anything but, being a fan, I'm curious what part of "The Noose" you're referring to?


3:19 to 4:00


Do you think it would make more sense to analyze chord progressions or another aspect of the song to derive similar songs?


I honestly don't know. Chord progressions sound as one approach but I'm not sure.
