A question for all you music buffs...

[Nick]

I bought the Shrek soundtrack the other day and I'm saddened that it doesn't have that superb bit of music that's blaring away when they are escaping from the dragon. Is it a named piece and anyone know of an album, maybe a movie soundtrack CD that I cen it it on?

[Tumble]

bah.. gonna have to watch it now find out which bit you mean....

Have you tried Shazam? Play it loud and dial 2580 on your mobile and hold it up to the speaker. If it recognises it, it'll text you and the only charge is 25p. If it doesn't recognise it, you won't be charged (other than normal charges for the sending!).

It's just part of the movie score, and not actually any particular song..

I thought it sounded like Spybreak from the Propellerheads ..

Its worrying how acccurate Shazzam is !!, but cool non the less

I wonder how many songs it has in its database ?

[Allen]

Over 1.7 million! It's so cool. When you go onto their website, it brings up all the numbers you've tagged and give's you the option to buy them too!

Ahh yes... what a cool way of doing it, used Shazaam before, but never thought of using it for that...

Of course, first time I used it I was bnelting up the motorway, it texted me back asking me to wind up the window, put me coffee cup down, flick me ciggie and then try again as it couldn't hear the tune over the sirens behind me... amazing what technology can do..
