About Traklyst

What Traklyst does

A DJ set is an hour or more of music with no list of what was played. Sometimes a tracklist exists, scattered over a description, a comment thread and a fan wiki. Often it does not. Traklyst brings the two things that can answer the question together: the tracklists people already published, and audio recognition of the recording itself.

The result is one page per set, with a timestamp for every track and a label that says how it got there: confirmed by the audio, or taken from a published list and not yet heard. How it works explains each step and shows live figures from the library.

What makes it different

• It listens to the whole set. An app like Shazam names one track at a time and often misses in a mix, where tracks are layered and pitched. Traklyst goes through the recording from start to end.
• It says what is proven. A track only counts as confirmed when the recording was heard at least twice with the same result, or once where a published tracklist names it. Everything else is marked unconfirmed.
• It covers sets nobody typed out yet. Community databases work best for big, well-known sets. Traklyst also handles an upload from last week.
• Every tracklist is public. The library is free to browse, copy and share, with or without an account.

How it treats the music

Traklyst does not host or share mixes. A recording is downloaded only for as long as a scan runs, to cut the fragments that are recognised, and is deleted afterwards. Every tracklist links back to the original upload, at the moment each track starts.

Artists, labels and uploaders can ask for a tracklist to be corrected or taken down, and anyone can report a wrong track or name an ID under the tracklist itself.

Who runs it

Traklyst is an independent project, built and run by one developer in the Netherlands, on its own server there. Scanning is free within limits, and the paid plans add more and longer scans. Traklyst stores nothing about you when you browse; the privacy policy lists what it keeps when you scan a set or make an account.

Questions, corrections and removal requests go through the contact form, straight to the person who runs Traklyst.
