Comments and Reviews
Open source, easy to use, works both with microphone and desktop audio imput, contain no ads
Very poor matching, however, unlike 'Songrec' which almost always gets it right.

Even if it's not the best music search engine (at least for concert music, which is the only style I listen to), it is very useful compared to Google or Shazam search engine, especially for allowing to download on Linux computer and being open source!
Best FOSS music recognition app I've used. Looks nice, works on desktop, detects songs quickly and rarely fails. Genuinely better than Shazam.
