Just installed something called MRA Music Recognition Application from the Windows store (its free)

MRA - Music Identifier - Music Discovery | Jadquir

MRA (short for Music Recognition Application) is a music recognition application, or music identifier, like Shazam but for PC. MRA listens to your microphone or the desktop sound and identifies the music and then gives you information about the music you found like title, artist, album...

mra.jadquir.com

- great results so far , really impressed, finding obscure dance stuff
doesn't need the mic, it can hear whats playing on the desktop internally

I was trying to Shazam some stuff at the club last night and it failed at all but one track. It was old school 80s acid rave stuff (I’ve lost track of all the different genre breakdowns so I can’t say more than that).

I’ll have to check if this MRA thing is available as an app for my phone.

just read you can get it on any android if you really want

The now playing feature samples music and compares it to a file already downloaded on your phone, so there's no uploading of your data (unless you specifically ask it to find a song).

Besides, we're already all being watched, listened to, tracked and monitored so it's a battle I've pretty much given up on.

That said, it's a fucking great feature to have if you end up in a new bar on a big night and then being able to see all the songs that were playing.

It's a great feature, I use it all the time
