Train your ear

Intros are short but full of clues. The sound of the recording, the tempo and whether there is a voice in the first second all narrow the field. Try to name the decade first, then the genre, then the artist. The song title often follows once you know who it is.

ReHeardle tips

Listen for the first instrument. A drum machine, a guitar riff or a piano each point to different eras.
Pick the original version from the list, not a cover or remix.
If a track will not play, it may be blocked on SoundCloud in your country.
If the first second tells you nothing, skip instead of guessing blind. Both open more of the intro.
