It's:

(1) deriving a simple fingerprint from the FFT of the audio signal

(2) simple indexing

(3) simple similarity search

You need the signatures of all music on earth for this to work though ;)

Not that difficult with a Spotify subscription. It will take some time, though.

He's back... are you talking about his archive? https://open.spotify.com/artist/6v8FB84lnmJs434UJf2Mrm

Oh, I didn’t realize he came back. I googled and only found reports of him leaving (I don’t use Spotify).
