Find the tracklist of a DJ set
The DJ set track identifier that finds what Shazam misses. Shazam names one moment. ryser.id names the whole set: every segment, timestamped, with the tempo-warp and denoise rescue passes that catch the tricky ones.
Transcript
Every DJ set is full of records worth finding. ryser.id names them for you. Paste a link from YouTube, SoundCloud or Mixcloud, or upload the file. It listens to the whole set, and the tracklist fills in while you watch. Records come back with their timestamp, tempo and Camelot key, plus links to find them. Press play to listen along. Click any track, and the player jumps straight to it. When a track can't be named, it stays marked as unknown. Fix any ID in one click. Paste your first set. Your first 120 minutes are free.

Every segment, not one moment
Shazam listens to a few seconds. ryser.id segments the entire mix at the transitions and identifies each section end to end.
Catches the hard ones
Tempo-warped, pitched or layered tracks that a single fingerprint misses get tempo-warp and denoise retries plus a preview-verification pass.
Says when it's unsure
Unreleased and white-label tracks can't be fingerprinted; those stay marked unknown, with community suggestions to fill them in, instead of a wrong guess.
Drop the mix
A YouTube, SoundCloud or Mixcloud link, or an audio file up to 500 MB.
The cascade runs
Every transition-cut segment is fingerprinted several times, edges first; rescue passes retry the misses, filling the setlist live.
Get the tracklist
Timestamps, BPM, Camelot key, cover art and streaming links, shareable and exportable.
Why is finding a DJ set's tracklist so hard?
A DJ set is deliberately engineered to hide its seams. Tracks are beat-matched, so two records play at the same tempo, which means at least one of them is pitched away from its release tempo, sometimes by 6–8%. Transitions overlap two tracks for 30–60 seconds, EQs carve out basslines, and hard-style sets layer acapellas and edits on top. Every one of those techniques is exactly what defeats one-shot fingerprinting: apps like Shazam match a clean 10-second sample against the original recording, and a pitched, layered, EQ'd section simply isn't the original recording anymore.
That's why the classic answers (scrolling comments for "ID?" threads, hoping a 1001Tracklists curator got there first, or Shazam-ing your phone at the speakers) are all partial. Comments cover the popular moments; curated databases cover the famous sets; live Shazam covers whatever happened to be playing clean when you tried.
ryser.id approaches it as a signal-processing problem instead. The mix is cut at its transitions, each segment is fingerprinted individually, and the sections that fail get rescue passes: the audio is tempo-warped back toward release speed, denoised, and cross-checked against candidate previews before a match is accepted. What can't be verified is labelled unknown, honestly, and names from the set's YouTube and SoundCloud comments are shown beside it as suggestions for you to check (unreleased and white-label tracks are what fingerprinting fundamentally can't name). The result is a timestamped setlist of the whole set, not a lucky sample of it.

How do I find the tracklist of a DJ set?
You have four options: scroll the comments hoping someone asked 'ID?', check 1001Tracklists in case a curator already documented the set, Shazam it moment by moment on your phone, or run the whole set through an automated identifier. ryser.id does the last one: paste the link, and it segments the mix at the transitions and identifies every section; a 60-minute set typically takes 15–20 minutes and comes back timestamped.
What's the best way to identify songs in a mix?
For a single moment, Shazam on your phone is fastest. For a whole mix, segment-by-segment analysis wins: continuous DJ mixes are beat-matched and often pitched several percent, which defeats one-off fingerprinting. An analyzer built for sets compensates for tempo shifts and retries hard sections with cleaned-up audio.
How is this different from Shazam?
Shazam identifies a single ~10-second sample. A DJ set is a continuous, often beat-matched and pitched mix; ryser.id segments the whole set and identifies every section, then applies tempo-warp and denoise rescue passes to the tracks a lone Shazam can't catch.
What sources can it identify?
Any YouTube, SoundCloud or Mixcloud link, or an uploaded audio file (MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A and more) up to 500 MB.
Will it find unreleased or white-label tracks?
Fingerprinting can only match released music, so true unreleased/white-label IDs stay marked unknown rather than guessed. The community suggestion flow lets other listeners crowd-ID those.
How accurate is it?
84% of the names we show are right. How much of a set it names depends on the mix: released tracks in a clean blend are found most often, while heavy layering, edits and unreleased material are the hard cases the rescue passes, Headliner and community IDs are there to help with.
How long does an analysis take?
About a third of the set length: a 60-minute mix is usually done in about 20 minutes, and one set in ten takes more than half its own length. Results stream in live while it runs, and you get an email when the setlist is ready.
Can I identify tracks from a YouTube DJ set?
Yes: paste any YouTube, SoundCloud or Mixcloud URL. Playback afterwards streams from the original platform, synced to your timestamped setlist, so nothing is re-hosted.
