It’s a common situation to be in- you hear a great, catchy song but you have no idea what it is. Whether it’s being played across the car radio or in the middle of a pub it’s easy to use Shazam to identify it.
An incredibly innovative and popular app, if you don’t use Shazam and you’re into music you should probably give it a go.
But for those who are already ahead of the game and use Shazam there’s one part of the service that is often quite annoying.
By this ‘annoyance’ I’m referring to the part where you have identified a great song and then it is just left sat idly on your Shazam account. Of course, you won’t face this problem if you’ve already connected your Shazam and Rdio accounts together!
Obviously, you could just search and stream the song in your chosen music player. But surely it’s a whole lot easier to just be easier to be able to create a playlist of all the great songs you ‘Shazam’ and then import these songs- all at once- directly into your Rdio account to be listened to at your convenience?
Fortunately, you can do just that with Rdio by connecting your account to your Shazam account.
You will need a premium Rdio account to be able to create playlist, but here’s how to do so if you have such an account:
Open Shazam -> Go to My Shazam -> Click the gear icon -> Click the option Connect to Rdio -> Click Play Full Tracks -> Sign in with your Rdio Unlimited account -> Shazam will tell you that your playlist has been created.
To access the Shazam playlist in your Rdio account, follow these steps:
Open the Rdio app -> open Playlists -> Click My Shazam Tracks
And there you have it, all those brilliant songs that you wanted to know the title of in one neat playlist on your Rdio account.
Enjoy.
