Identify tracks from SoundCloud Live set screenshots by cross-referencing tracklist databases, then return Apple Music and Spotify links.

Workflow#

Step 1: Read the Screenshot#

Analyze the provided screenshot to extract:

1. Set name — title of the live set (DJ name, event, mix title)
2. Current timestamp — playback position shown in the player (e.g. "1:23:45")

If either value is unclear, ask the user to clarify before proceeding.

Step 2: Find the Tracklist#

Search for the tracklist using multiple sources. Try them in this order — use the first one that returns usable results with timestamps.

Priority 1: livetracklist.com

text

site:livetracklist.com {DJ name} {event or mix name}

Fetch the matching page. Timestamps are usually included inline.

Priority 2: set79.com

text

site:set79.com {set name}

Or search for the SoundCloud URL directly on set79:

text

https://set79.com/tracklist/soundcloud.com/{user}/{slug}

Priority 3: SoundCloud tracklist reposts

text

"{set name}" tracklist timestamps

Some users repost sets on SoundCloud with full tracklists and timestamps in the description.

Priority 4: YouTube description

If the set also exists on YouTube (common for fan-curated mixes), the video description often contains the full tracklist with timestamps. Search:

text

"{set name}" site:youtube.com

Then fetch the video page and extract the description.

Fallback: 1001tracklists.com

text

site:1001tracklists.com {set name}

Note: 1001tracklists.com frequently blocks automated access with captchas and Cloudflare challenges. Only try this if the above sources fail. If blocked, skip it and note the failure.

Step 3: Match the Track at Timestamp#

From the tracklist:

• Find the track whose cue time contains or immediately precedes the screenshot timestamp
• Extract track name and artist
• If no cue times are listed, estimate by track position relative to total set length and inform the user the match is estimated
• If the timestamp is within ~5 seconds of a transition, mention both tracks

Step 4: Get the Apple Music Link#

1. Use the iTunes Search API:

text

https://itunes.apple.com/search?term={artist}+{track name}&entity=song&limit=5

Pick the best match from results and use trackViewUrl as the Apple Music link.

1. If no results, try a web search: site:music.apple.com {artist} {track name}

Step 5: Get the Spotify Link#

1. Search: site:open.spotify.com {artist} {track name}
2. If no results, try a broader search: {artist} {track name} spotify

Step 6: Output#

text

Set:        {set name}
Timestamp:  {timestamp from screenshot}
Track:      {track name}
Artist:     {artist}
Apple Music: {apple_music_link}
Spotify:    {spotify_link}

If any step produces uncertain results, state what was found and what wasn't, and ask the user how to proceed.
