Two days ago i gave you some basics on how to find mp3 files using the google search engine. Today i will use the basic concept to enhance the searches even more and get rid of some of the false hits that are still displayed while we search for mp3 files.
The search string that we constructed looked like the following:
-inurl:htm -inurl:html “index of� mp3 “Oct-2005″ “Fresh Fantasy Dizzy Singers�
There are more filetypes that we should exclude from our searches to get better results, those are:
php, asp, doc, pdf, shtml and txt
To exclude these as well we use the following search string:
-inurl:htm -inurl:html -inurl:php -inurl:asp -inurl:doc -inurl:pdf -inurl:shtml -inurl:txt “index of� mp3 “Oct-2005″ “Fresh Fantasy Dizzy Singers�
We also don´t want the following results to appear in our search results:
ringtones, lyric and playlists
That means we exclude those as well and get:
-inurl:htm -inurl:html -inurl:php -inurl:asp -inurl:doc -inurl:pdf -inurl:shtml -inurl:txt “index of� mp3 -ringtone -lyric -playlist “Oct-2005″ “Fresh Fantasy Dizzy Singers�
The last step is to add more possibly words that appear in the directory structure, those are
"parent of" and "last modified"
Our final searchstring now looks like this:
-inurl:htm -inurl:html -inurl:php -inurl:asp -inurl:doc -inurl:pdf -inurl:shtml -inurl:txt AND (“index of�|"last modified"|"parent of") AND mp3 -ringtone -lyric -playlist AND “Oct-2005″ AND “dizzy singers�
You can of course exclude more search types from your searches, this depends on the circumstances, maybe you don´t want audiobooks to be displayed, or only audiobooks..
I think you have the basic understanding now to enhance the searches yourself and get pretty good results using google.

[...] Perhaps this is a little stale, but I was impressed nonetheless. Google can be used to find downloadable audio and video media using carefully crafted search terms. If you can’t be bothered typing in those terms, simply go to opendir.berkery.nl to select a media type to search for (Thanks Boramor!) [...]

That’s one of the sloppiest queries I’ve seen in a while!
[search query]
“parent directory” “index of” “last modified” -htm -html -jsp -asp -php -shtml “[snd]” +mp3 name
[/search query]
This website is one of my favorites!
I tried usin the query .. i cant get it .. help with a partucular mp3 .. say x .. mp3 .. show the example .. plz…
This is how I normally find songs:
First way…
“songtitle.mp3″
Second way…
“song title +mp3 -lyrics -ringtone”
whats wrong with this:
intitle:”index of” mp3
gets open directories, and much simpler
