Songhunt

Songhunt is an AI song search engine that turns plain-language briefs, reference tracks, images and videos into song matches, backed by filters for mood, genre, era, lyrics and instrumentation. It suits playlist curators, music supervisors and listeners who want discovery driven by intent rather than by existing charts.

Songhunt is an AI song search engine built around the way people actually talk about music. Instead of guessing at the right keyword or scrolling through genre lists, you describe what you want in plain language: a feel, a lyric theme, a reference track, even an era. The engine reads that intent and returns songs that fit, drawing on a wide catalogue of listening behaviour and song metadata rather than simple title matching. The search box accepts several kinds of input. You can type a text description, a song title, or an artist name, or you can upload an image or video and ask Songhunt to find music that matches the visual mood. Underneath sits a filter panel with more than a dozen dimensions, including popularity, decade, vocal gender, genre and sub-genre, mood, sound, instruments, lyrical theme, lyrical mood, writing style, harmony and melody. That combination of natural language and structured filters is what separates it from a plain search bar inside a streaming service, where discovery usually depends on what an algorithm already decided to surface for you. The homepage makes the intended use obvious. Example prompts cover very specific briefs: cheerful summer songs, funk in the vein of the Bee Gees, low-pitched fifties rock and roll, hip hop about fitness, tracks that contain a particular word, contemporary writers who sound like Leonard Cohen. This is a tool for people who arrive with a half-formed idea and need a shortlist, whether that is a playlist curator, a DJ, a music supervisor, a content creator scoring a video, or a listener who is tired of the same recommendations. Songhunt fits in the discovery and curation layer rather than the playback layer. It is a place to search and shortlist, not a full streaming library or a production tool. Search by description and visual input both centre on mood and texture, and the metadata filters let you tighten a loose brief into something usable. If your existing tools give you popular tracks and chart adjacency, Songhunt aims at the long tail of intent: songs about a topic, songs that feel a certain way, songs that resemble a reference without copying it.
