1001Tracklists is a database of sets other people have already identified. Setlist.ID is the tool for every set they have not.
Identify My Mix →1001Tracklists is the biggest crowdsourced database of DJ tracklists on the internet, and for famous sets it is genuinely good. Festival main stages, flagship radio shows, and headline club nights get documented quickly by a dedicated community, sometimes including unreleased IDs that no piece of software could ever name.
The catch is that coverage follows fame. If the set in front of you is a local opener, a promo mix from a mid-size label, a five-year-old podcast episode, or your own recording, there is no page for it, and there is never going to be one. Even well-documented sets sit full of ID placeholders that stay unanswered for months.
Setlist.ID works from the opposite direction. Instead of waiting for a human who happens to know the track, it fingerprints the audio itself: paste the link, the complete recording is analyzed in overlapping segments against a database of more than 100 million tracks, and the tracklist comes back in minutes with a timestamp on every identified track.
| 1001Tracklists | Setlist.ID | |
|---|---|---|
| Where tracklists come from | Community members submit and verify IDs by hand | Audio fingerprinting of the actual recording |
| Coverage | Famous DJs and well-documented events | Any public mix on 100+ platforms, including your own |
| Waiting time | Whenever the community gets to it, if ever | Under 5 minutes per hour of audio |
| Unreleased tracks | Sometimes named by community insiders | Not identifiable until they are released, shown as timestamped gaps |
| Timestamps | Only when submitters add them | On every identified track, automatically |
| Cost | Free to browse | Token-based, from $5.00 for 3 hours of audio |
Check 1001Tracklists first when the set is famous. If a main-stage festival set or a flagship radio show already has a complete community tracklist, it is free to read and may even name unreleased IDs that fingerprinting cannot touch.
Use Setlist.ID when there is no page, when the page is riddled with ID placeholders, or when the mix is too obscure, too new, or too personal to ever get community attention. Paste the link and the tracklist exists five minutes later, whether or not anyone else on the internet cares about the set.
They solve the same problem in different ways, and plenty of people use both. 1001Tracklists is a free community database that is excellent for famous sets. Setlist.ID generates a tracklist from the audio of any mix you paste, which is the only option for the enormous majority of mixes that no community will ever document.
Often, yes. Many ID placeholders are simply obscure or recently released tracks nobody recognized by ear, and those match fine against a 100-million-track fingerprint database. Genuinely unreleased tracks cannot be identified by any tool until they come out.
No. Results are private to your account. Nothing is posted anywhere, which also makes Setlist.ID usable for unreleased promo mixes you would not want documented in public.
Pricing is token-based with no subscription: 1 token covers 1 hour of processed audio, bundles start at $5.00 for 3 tokens, and tokens are refunded automatically if identification fails.
