BLINDTEST, find the song and the band !

Lucs · **on:** June 27, 2008, 07:02:07 PM

Ok, here are samples of 10 tracks from 10 differents artists.

Download one of those two files (they are the same, just one is .rar, the other .zip, choose the one you want, they are 3.7Mo big).

http://www.gunsnroses.ch/Lucs/Blindtest.zip
http://www.gunsnroses.ch/Lucs/Blindtest.rar

Un/zip/rar the file, and listen to the songs. Then you have to guess who's the band / artist who plays the song and what's the name of the song.

You get 1 point if you find the band, 1 point if you find the name of the song.

You have to send me your answers by private message. I'll edit this post to add the scores.

You can try to guess as many times as you want. I'll just tell you if you're right or not. I'll give the answers in some days depending on how many people participate and all...

It's an eaaaaaaaaasy one, so pleasssssssse try it !!!

Members of the family of the one who propose the blindtest can participate but CAN'T win. Their score is just for fun. (Added this rules as my little sister is playing it and will probably get the 20 points

lol)

----------------------------
All songs are copyrighted to the respectives artists / bands. It's just some SHORT samples (30s maximum) so I guess it's ok to post them here !

----------------------------------------------------

No, I mean, like, commenting, since nobody had replied.

Lucs · **Reply #5 on:** June 27, 2008, 07:49:04 PM

Well it's cool if you talk a little here so the topic is still on top so people can see when I update the scores !

You just CAN'T give the answers of course

Menacia · **Reply #6 on:** June 27, 2008, 08:03:42 PM

Well I thought that giving the answers here wouldnt make much sense. But I like the overall idea of this thread. It's nice to find out how much I know about music and how I much I don't

MillieQOF · **Reply #11 on:** June 27, 2008, 11:06:36 PM

I'll do this tomorrow, it's too late for me to listen to music loud right now xD

Sander · **Reply #12 on:** June 28, 2008, 12:15:44 AM

We could make this a weekly thing with different people organizing it

Sirimono · **Reply #13 on:** June 28, 2008, 12:59:39 AM

I can't cut mp3's... otherwise I'd love to make a test once, I just need help from another person then

I participated... I hope lucs posts tomorrow how much points i've got

Lucs · **Reply #14 on:** June 28, 2008, 09:57:03 AM

Yup I will in some minutes !!!

To cut a mp3, just use Audacity ! It's really easy to use !

Sander · **Reply #15 on:** June 28, 2008, 10:59:48 AM

I use GoldWave, really nice

Lucs · **Reply #16 on:** June 28, 2008, 03:36:58 PM

MillieQQF found them all !!!!!!!!!!!!

You win ! Great job ! You can already prepare your blindtest.

Just some advices / "rules" :

- Choose 10 songs
- Don't choose too "unknown" songs (like a local band or what)

Now I dunno if you (talking to everybody here) prefer that I give the answers of the blindtest NOW, or should I wait 2-3 days so people can still play.

Maybe we could say that the next blindtest comes :

One week later if nobody found all the songs
OR
Two days after there is a winner

What do you think ?

I think you should stick to the deadline you put in the original post ^^
and let people go on guessing

ferret · **Reply #19 on:** June 30, 2008, 02:24:31 PM

I love you for Pea :lol: But omg, I totally didn't know it was Luna Sea (that could be because I thought there latter albums were too generic and I only listened to them...once*bad LS fan*).

SINCE NOONE ELSE WANTS TO JOIN, IT'S FERRET'S TURN NOW.
UNLESS ANYONE ELSE WANTS TO JOIN?

:O

Are scores allowed? Those are nearly(?) impossible to google. You'd just have to say which movie the theme is from and who composed it (THAT you can google if you don't know it).

Hmm, I'd say scores are allowed. But please don't take impossible ones. xD
Well, should I pass it on to you and give everyone the correct answers?
