How to find music from video using any device
1. Look for a song according to the words on the web
This is the easiest and most obvious way to find out which music was used in the video. Surely you started searching for him. But if not, just try typing in the browser a few words from the song. For clarification, you can add a “song”, “lyrics” or lyrics, if it’s a song in a foreign language.
2. Check out the soundtrack
If we are talking about the film, you can always refer to the official soundtrack. Usually it includes all the compositions used in the picture. Just type the movie name + OST or soundtrack in the search. The issue may well be a link to the full track list.
3. Check the description and comments on YouTube
Almost any clip, commercial or trailer for the movie can be found on YouTube. Open this service and find the video by keywords. Then check its description. It is there that the authors often indicate the music they use. To go to the description under the video, click “More”.
If the track is not listed in the description, check the comments on the video. It is possible that one of the users was already trying to find out the name of the song and asked the author the question. If there was no answer, you can ask yourself.
4. Use the Midomi web service
This web service will help you to find out what kind of music sounds right now. To do this, on the main page of the site you just need to click on the microphone and allow listening. In the case of the same YouTube, you can start the video in one tab of the browser, and Midomi in the other.
If there is no video at hand, the song can be sung, whistled or nagged – Midomi will try to guess.

5. Launch the Yandex.Music bot in Telegram
If you are an active Telegram user, add a bot to the popular music service. Clamp the microphone in the message sending line and let the bot listen to the song. Each track found is supplemented by a link to “Yandex.Muzyku”.

6. Ask the bot Acknow in Telegram
A less popular, but quite working option is the Acknow bot. It is also quite accurate and fast, but for its work it is necessary to subscribe to the Bassmuzic channel. Tracking Acknow is supplemented by links to Spotify and YouTube.

7. Look in the audio recordings “VKontakte”
Whether it’s advertising on TV, someone’s self-made clip or music from the movie, you can always type the name of the video directly in the search for audio recordings “VKontakte.” In the issue it may well be an audio track from a video with the artist’s indication or simply the name of the song with a note, in which video it was used.
8. Ask in special groups “VKontakte”
For example, here and here directly on the wall, you can simply place a link or attach the video itself. Your message will be viewed by thousands of users, and there is a high probability that someone will be able to give an answer.
Try it, especially if you are looking for a little-known track that does not recognize special services.
