The project
After thousands Tango Quiz where you are asked what is this tango it was time to offer a way for YOU to ask El Recodo.
One click, anywhere, anytime, from a short audio sample playing around you. Many apps do that for modern music, but when it comes to tango, they are - if not wrong - confusing or they lack key information such as recording dates. If such tool could be linked to El Recodo Tango Music, it would definitly improve our tango music knowledge...
Three years of thinking, struggling and developping finally resulted in the 1st audio recognition app dedicated to tango. Several people involved to make it work, especially Ahmed Alami (algorithms, tests, architecture), Julien Libeau (servers, application), Gregory Diaz (concept, audio learning, database), and all contributors.

Questions / Answers
What tango can be identified?
All recordings available on El Recodo Tango Music may be identified, which covers thousands recordings and versions, mainly classical and danceable tango which is the priority scope.
Getting a contributor access helps to improve the database on regular basis.
There's no result, however the recording is listed on El Recodo
Try with the mic near to the speaker and on a distinct sample of music. Still no result? It may be a version still unknown by the app (transfer with distinct sounding or speed), despite the efforts to continuously integrate as many releases as possible.
You can also try the advanced search with a piece of lyrics and any other filter you may find.
What benefits vs other famous apps?
Non-tango applications display information from CD releases which is perfect for music in general, but not for tango.
This app includes non-official realeases which often circulate between DJ's and dancers; and you get accurate tango data from El Recodo Tango Music. As an example, "La cumparsita by Juan D'Arienzo", is not the answer you are looking for because he recorded it 6 times between 1928 and 1971! Which one are you listening to? El Recodo can tell...
The wrong tango has been identified
Like all similar apps, the recognition technology is wondeful but never perfect. It is recommended to double check your identifications using the audio sample (play button) or the website. You can also remove the recording from your history.
I always used Facebook Login / I don’t know my password
If you don’t remember your password, or If you don’t have any because you always use Facebook to log in, click on “lost password” and follow the process: Enter your email, wait for the email (check you spams), get a temporary link to define a new password.
About El Recodo Tango App
These alternatives solutions have a lot of money (ressources) and are based on all music repertoire which include all tango album released on online platforms automatically. This can lead to higher identification compared to El recodo. On the other hand, they don't have private digitalizations that never reached public platforms but are spread in the tango community; they copy again and again many metadata errors, wrong titles or artists; they don't know about recording dates (a crucial info in tango music) nor the difference between an orchestra or a singer.
- Higher identification rate, lower tango data reliability -- shazam and friends
- Lower identification rate, higher tango data reliability -- El Recodo
You can maximize your idenfications using El Recodo Tango App for golden age tangos. Also place the phone near a speaker and make sure you have a good internet connexion (the app doesn't like intermittent poor conection).
To identify recordings from your own tango library, correct or set their right metadata, use TangoLink which is much more powerful than the app and designed for this purpose.
I hope this whill help
Los accesos Contribuidor y TangoDJ permiten el uso del App sin limite.
Si la idea es de identificar una gran cantidad de archivos de audio desde un PC o Mac, recomiendo TangoLink (acceso TangoDJ), de lo contrario la cuenta Contribuidor es suficiente.

Si tú usas beatfind para que analice el ingeniero de Di Sarli , efectivamente te va a decir que es el Ingeniero, pero para saber cuál de las 3 versiones es (45, 52 o 55) tendrás que invertir un poco más de tiempo.
Saludos !
Creo que tu explicacion es muy acertada y corresponde al uso de la mayoria de los usuarios. Ademas es gratis (cierto con una limitcion por dia, de lo contrario no se podria cubrir los costos). Saludos!
Que puis-je faire ?
j'ai un phénomène similaire en Milonga a Buenos Aires, mais su plus probablement à la réverbération de la salle, chez moi a 1 mettre de l'enceinte el recodo App reconnait le titre entre 5 et 8 secondes, au Salon Canning de Scalabrini, après 30 secondes toujours pas de reconnaissance. je pense que l'acoustique de la pièce si on est loin du champs direct de enceintes influe sur la reconnaissance, et aussi, si on est trop fort il est possible ( juste ma théorie) que le micros des smartphones introduisent de la distorsion a fort niveau .
Since then, the app has been improving with even more recording versions.
Thx for your support!
On the app, you must insert the same credentials as for this website (this is the same account). If you do it without mistake it should work as well as on www.el-recodo.com. Best Regards,
Come back here wirh your android phone and press the install button on the top of this page.
Técnicamente esta. Solo me faltan contribuciones para cubrir un poco más los costos de todo eso :)
Este atento y pronto llegara
A priori, il n'y a plus de blocage technique donc pas de souci pour une version iOS. Par contre, il faut d'abord valider l’intérêt des utilisateurs (Android du coup) et de nouveaux contributeurs.
