I frequently listen to electronic music programs that typically play tracks that musical identifiers (like Shazam or AHA) fail to recognise.

The DJ is also not a great help because they’ll back announce multiple tracks that are also hard to recognise or pinpoint. My main concern, though, is that I’ll often hear a track that I’m not likely to hear again or may forget by the time it’s officially available and/or recognisable.

So my question is: is it possible to rip a single track from a long stream for future reference (so Shazam will eventually recognise it or we can play it at our own leisure)?

I really like a techno track from the following stream: https://www.mixcloud.com/KissFM/the-beautiful-drive-09-nov-2023/

It starts playing at the 13 minute and 46 second mark and was hoping to be able to isolate it (if possible). I was also hoping to be able to isolate any other tracks I might encounter in any other streams heard online (when failing to recognise it).

Alternatively, if you can make sense of what the DJ says around the 36 minute mark I’d really appreciate the clarification :) !

thanks

Hmm, not sure about that, it seems to me it just stores the audio in one series of small fragments, which are just split up somehow by time.

Did you think about recording the audio with something?
Like OBS or Audacity (versions before 3). I think that may be a semi-good solution. Or, for somewhat better quality you could download the whole track (yt-dlp can handle it), and then cut it for the pieces you want to keep, in Audacity (before version 3) or something else

By the way, playing it in the browser it sounded as if it was pretty strongly compressed for consumption, so to speak, but yt-dlp got a better quality version.

Maybe there’s a quality selector of the website, and it has just been mistaken by uBlock as a tracker among the high profile trackers present on the page?

You managed to download it for yourself using yt-dlp?

Yes, I did. If it doesn’t work for you, you may try updating it with yt-dlp -U.
If that doesn’t help let me know, maybe one of my settings does the trick

thanks for taking the time out to clarify this for me.

Unfortunately, I’m too stupid to make sense of how to use yt-dlp
