Need to find this out, been killing me and my coursemates all day.

It's like elevator music, or waiting around music.

Doooooo. do do doodoo. Doo do dodo. Dah dum.

It's not Super Mario.

It's played with a xylophone or piano.

There's an app called sound hound - I got it for free with apple's 12 days of Christmas. It's similar to shazam in that it can recognise songs on the radio etc. but you can also sing at it and it's surprisingly effective - https://www.soundhound.com/

As a software engineer I find both of these apps astounding - I wouldn't really know where to start in developing something similar that returns results as quickly as they do. Really impressive tech.

There is a technique called Fourier Analysis:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_analysis

Which basically states that any noise can be made up out of a collection of other frequencies. This can be applied to music, images or even video! Anyway this can be used to break a piece of music down into a series of parameters that can then be searched for on a database. For instance a hashing function could be applied to the parameters and deliver the title of the piece from a list without performing any form of search at all. That would be very very fast indeed but would require an exact match. AI techniques could be used to look for a best match however and would be far more robust.

I'd be tempted to make something like it except for:
I should probably be spending my time doing something more productive like getting a job.
There are already so many out there that mine would go totally unnoticed.

I get that, but then how do you search any 4s sample against a 'database' of such a vast collection of music?

and then sound hound with it's ability to detect by humming or singing...

I'm hard to impressed with tech, but the more you think about this problem the harder it gets so these solutions really astound me.

My Desire came with SoundHound pre-installed and it is indeed very useful, it struggles a little with instrumental music more than vocal stuff though, aim it at Classic FM and you'll find quite a high failure rate. I just assumed it worked by making a mathematical note of pitch/frequency and compared it to a database of pre-analysed songs to match the segment, if that's how it works then it's fairly straightforward?

They've basically got a room full of music geeks, pub quiz types who listen to each track and identify it.

"Oh it's erm, y'know, that one off that film. It's like dum dum duuuuuum du du du duuuuuum cha. Y'know, that guy and that girl. It was big when I was a college... gah." Etc.

I applied for a job doing it once. I had to identify tracks from 5 second clips. I got "Creation" by the Stereo MCs, "Dub Be Good to Me" by Beats International and "A Message to you Rudy" by the Specials but failed to get "Fernando" by Abba and something by Garth Brooks. I also knew nothing about classical music or jazz (jonny hates jazz). So my services were not required.

You can use something like a tree with a heuristic, that is a measure of similarity between the current sample and another sample. So it could for instance compare the frequency of the bass to other samples and go:
Slower than this, slower than that by a bit, faster than that, so it's a song from this sub tree. Straight away that's chopped it down from one of 100,000 songs to one of say 5000. Then finer matching can be done on other frequencies.

A mate did something similar with some voice control software that was trained from some samples you provided, it then used short term energy readings to segment the signals, then DCT and DFT to break it down into some parameters that could be used to match samples. I believe he used Naive basien and Gaussian classifiers both to good effect. He got a few good papers published on it.

There is a fast piano track which used to get used on Horizon back when i had a TV, which played during montages or when the exposition was going on about the subject matter.

Anybody know what that song happens to be? Its fairly fast but other than that I have no idea.

Nope interesting song though, it sort of sounds like clocks by cold play but in the high sharp notes. Karma anyway Thumbs Up
