of them...

Mathematically impossible, since it's 36 questions.

I think the main reason I got the others wrong is due to the
length of the longer melodies. And of course, some
instruments are harder than others.

everone seems to have quite high scores. i'm wondering if
that its actually an easy test, or becuase most people here
have some kind of musical ability. it would be interesting
to see the results on a wider demographic.

Interesting yes, but there are some things to consider
there.

*people might not wan't to post if they got a bad score
*people might lie about their score
*if you have a feeling that you will do well at the test,
you will be more motivated to take it in the first place
(i probably wouldnt take a "mathematical intelligence test,
because i know i would suck at it)
*people on xltronic might just be better than the rest :P

I think it's easier if you listen to a lot of repeatative
dance music, cause you always notice subtle changes in
that.
I still can't sing for toffee though.

Though, I Can't see how this has anything to do with tone
deafness. It is 90-95% musiCal memory. WhiCh is hardly a
test of "musiCal skills."

He also says that exCellent musiCians rarely sCore above
80%.

I mean to say: I think this guy has no idea what he is
talking about. While this is still Cool to do, I think a
better test for tone deafness would be here. It
isnt sCored though, and requires a minimal amount of musiCal
knowledge.

this test is bullshit. I got 91.7% on my first try. it
doesn't test your ability to distinguish tones out of each
other. it's just a simple memory test. try doing some
interval tests. those are allot harder and will give you a
more honest result.

Actually Jake Mandell was a prominent IDM guy a couple of
years ago. That probably shocks and astounds you.

I never listen to any IDM artist that records under just
their normal name, consequently I've never heard Jake
Mandell, Chris Clark, Jamie Lidell, Karlheinz Stockhausen or
Simon Lob, among others.
