How to identify a song on Mixcloud
To find the tracks in a Mixcloud show, copy the show's link, paste it into AHA Music's URL identifier, and start the scan; it works through the audio and lists each song it recognises with its start time, up to 1 hour. For longer shows, play the show and identify the current track with the Chrome extension, or upload the file if you have it.
- Copy the Mixcloud link of the show or mix.
- Paste it into the box above and start the scan.
- Read the tracklist with the time each song starts.
- For shows over 1 hour, use the extension on the track playing now.
Why Mixcloud is different
Mixcloud hosts radio shows and DJ mixes, many of them two hours or longer, and many without a complete tracklist. The link scan covers the first hour; the extension covers the rest, one track at a time while you listen.
Mixcloud shows often have a partial tracklist entered by the uploader. The scan is a good way to fill the gaps or to name the track the uploader marked as "ID".
Mixcloud Select subscriber-only shows cannot be fetched from a link; anything you can play can be identified with the extension.

Questions about Mixcloud

Can it complete a show's tracklist?
