NotShazam 🎵

NotShazam is an implementation of Shazam's song recognition algorithm based on insights from these resources. It integrates Spotify and YouTube APIs to find and download songs from the internet.

Current Limitations

While the algorithm works excellently in matching a song with the exact song file, it performs poorly in finding the right match from a song recording. However, this is still a work in progress. Hopefully, I can get it to work. I could use some help though. Additionally, it only supports song files in WAV format.
