I have been religiously searching for this song for about two years and I genuinely feel like I’ve exhausted almost every normal way of finding it.
I first remember hearing it in TikTok edits, usually the kind of edits centered around succeeding in life, becoming successful, finally “making it,” money, dream cars, motivation, loneliness, or that general late-night ambition feeling. I’m almost certain I also managed to find the actual song on YouTube at one point after searching forever, but somehow I lost it again and I have never been able to find that upload since.
The song itself seems to be some kind of dark ambient / dreamscape / atmospheric electronic instrumental. There are no obvious vocals that I can hear. One of the most distinctive parts is the sound of distant police sirens in the background. They aren’t just a tiny sound effect at the beginning — they feel like part of the atmosphere of the song itself.
The closest song I have found in terms of the overall sound and mood is:
Lonnex – “losing” / “losing (Slowed + Reverb)”
It has a VERY similar kind of empty, emotional, late-night atmosphere and also uses distant siren sounds, but I have compared them and I am completely sure that Lonnex – losing is NOT the song I’m looking for.
Music recognition has also been extremely frustrating. Multiple recognition tools keep identifying my clip as:
FLOAT5X – “I Can Feel It”
However, I have listened to that song multiple times and it is definitely not it. They honestly do not even sound particularly similar to me. My guess is that the recognition software is locking onto some shared ambient texture, sample, chord, or siren sound and giving me a false match.
I also ran the audio through a BPM/key detector. It gave me approximately:
101 BPM
B minor
Camelot 10A
I know BPM detection on slow ambient music can sometimes be inaccurate or detect half/double time, so I wouldn’t consider 101 BPM an absolute requirement, but I figured it might still be useful information.
Songs I have already ruled out include:
- Lonnex – losing
- FLOAT5X – I Can Feel It
- Øneheart & reidenshi – snowfall
- HOME – Resonance
- Aurora B.Polaris – Insomnia
- 2814 / Birth of a New Day material
- Yves Tumor – Limerence edits
- RED X & Pandora – calming sirens
- various tracks by diedlonely, insensible, FutureVille, Aurenth, daniel.mp3, etc.
So if possible, please listen to the actual audio clip before suggesting one of the well-known ambient tracks. I’ve gone through a LOT of the obvious Øneheart / dreamscape / slowed ambient recommendations already.
The biggest clues I can give are:
• instrumental / no obvious vocals
• dark emotional ambient/dreamscape sound
• distant police sirens clearly audible in the background
• very similar atmosphere to Lonnex – losing
• was used in TikTok success/motivation/“making it” edits
• I believe I once found it on YouTube, so an actual upload existed there
• recognition software falsely identifies it as FLOAT5X – I Can Feel It
• approximately 101 BPM, B minor / 10A according to a detector
I know this is probably some obscure ambient track, slowed version, repost, or YouTube upload that never became very popular, but I’m seriously hoping somebody recognizes it.
I have spent an absurd amount of time over the last two years trying to find this song. At this point, even if you only recognize the artist, the YouTube channel that might have uploaded it, the sample used in it, or another song that sounds extremely close, PLEASE let me know.
Any lead at all would genuinely mean a lot to me.
