I hear a clip of what must be an older techno type song played occasionally at sporting events and don’t know how to find it.

It’s almost like a soccer type chant but starts with what sounds like either a chorus humming or a bunch of kazoos. It plays D\_C\_A#\_A\_, D\_C\_A#\_A,DDCCA#A#AA,DDCCA#A#AA

Then I think a bass line drops in at that point but at sporting events it always gets cut short.

Similar in style. I’ve heard that one and was going to cite it as an example.

Are there any videos of the sporting events where you’ve heard it, on  
YouTube for example ? If so, you could play them and use Shazam to  
try and identify it.

“Twilight Zone” by 2 Unlimited? The most recognizable part of the song starts at 0:23, but there is a bizarre humming or kazoo noise at the very beginning. At 1:08 are some notes that may fit the OP’s description.

Whatever the song is, if it’s an old-enough techno song, there’s a good chance it appears on the series of ESPN’s _Jock Jams_ CDs that were released in the 90s:

> **[Jock series | Jock Jams](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jock_series#Jock_Jams)**
>
> Albums in the Jock Jams series mainly consist of 1980s and 1990s dance and house music, as well as hip hop, classic disco, mashups, and cheerleaders and other sports figures saying phrases. When some of the songs and quotes became popular, they were incorporated into a mash-up entitled "The Jock Jam".

The last I heard it was the Bears @ Packers game this year on TV. I have the game recorded and it plays at about 3:15 left in the 4th quarter. I tried to Shazam it but Tom Brady is talking at the time and is too loud.

Another long shot (it’s the wrong genre and doesn’t have the chorus at the beginning, but the notes fit pretty well): “Gone Daddy Gone” by the Violent Femmes

Think I found it. It’s just a portion of this song that starts at 0:45. When played in the stadium on tv it sounds like a chorus humming rather than an electronic buzz.
