BuzzJack Music Forum _ Indie, Rock and Alternative _ Let It Riff!
Posted by: LINDSΞY Oct 15 2016, 01:40 PM
Hey guys, I'm back with yet another thing 
It's pretty simple and very similar to Never Mind The BuzzJacks except the excerpts are riffs/main repeated rythms of songs that fit under the genre of this forum 
It's mostly guitar riffs but there is quite a mix so it hopefully shouldn't be too easy or too difficult 
There's some hella obvious ones but there's a few in there that should make you think, hopefully none of you get all 20 straight off the bat 
So yea, all you need to do is send me a message with the song title and artist for each of the 20 riffs in the video below. You'll get a point for guessing the artist correct and another for the song so don't worry if you only know one or the other, you can still pick up a point! There's also a bonus element too where you can pick up 3 additional points and that's if you can guess the song and artist (I need both for this) of the single note at the very end of the video. That sounds near impossible but trust me when I say, if you know the song you will recognise it I'm sure
I'll keep this open for just over a week but I will say now there is a chance it may get extended as I'm working more shifts the next two weeks and have a few other things going on and depending on how much results prep I can do as I get in answers, I might need a full day to organise everything BUT lets just set the deadline for 23:59 on Sunday 23rd for now 
GO

love this idea! recognising quite a few on first listen which i'm quite impressed with
Posted by: Mattias Oct 15 2016, 02:28 PM
Good idea, sadly I only know four for definite on first listen and I think I know just the artist for one other one but several of the rest are killing me because I'm sure I've heard them before loads of times but can't place any artist/song name 
Will keep listening for some more time.

I recognise SO many of these. 
And there's several where I know I know the track on an even more certain basis than I do with NMBTJ but good luck to myself working out which song they belong to.
Posted by: LINDSΞY Oct 15 2016, 08:26 PM
Yassss that's the kind of reaction I was hoping for, I purposely put in a few songs that I thought people would recognise but wouldn't know the title or artist straight off so that it annoys y'all a bit
If people are really struggling with the bonus note I'll maybe put in the few notes that follow it to make it easier, I think definitely a handful of people will get it from the first note alone though (it's the intro if that helps)

Had a listen and I think I know over half of them - and definitely know the note! Will definitely submit some answers after a couple more listens.

I got the bonus EASILY (and so thrilled that you put it in 
), I think you're right in that those that know it well wouldn't need any more clues!
I know a good number of these, my mid 00s guitar phase proving useful here~
Posted by: Oliver Oct 15 2016, 09:16 PM
Definitely know the bonus note, and recognise quite a few faves in here!

I LOVE YOU because of the first ten seconds of this video
Edit: AND THE THIRD TO LAST SONG
Posted by: Tombo Oct 15 2016, 10:38 PM
I've entered, this was good fun 
Posted by: Mattias Oct 16 2016, 02:19 PM
Entered! Thought of a few more I couldn't get initially. There are a few others that do sound familiar but I still can't think what they are.
Posted by: HarryEzra Oct 16 2016, 04:01 PM
I will have a proper go at this later but I regonise a lot so far 
Posted by: The-BrightPlaces Oct 16 2016, 04:50 PM
this is such an awesome idea and I got super excited every time I recognized a song 
can't wait to go through them properly!! I'm certain I know well over half and the last note
Posted by: LINDSΞY Oct 20 2016, 05:28 PM
Thanks to the three of you that have sent in answers already
I NEED MORE THO C'MON GUYS UP YOUR GAME
Posted by: HarryEzra Oct 20 2016, 06:13 PM

Posted by: LINDSΞY Oct 23 2016, 04:13 AM
Gonna extend this until midnight on Thursday since I've had barely any participants () and Friday is my only day off next week
Posted by: princess_lotita Oct 23 2016, 08:56 AM
Remind me and I'll do this later in the week!!
Posted by: Iz~ Oct 23 2016, 11:39 AM
Entered this now and I think I did the best I could do but I will be so annoyed at myself when the rest of the answers are revealed.
Posted by: Jacob Alan Oct 23 2016, 11:15 PM
I didn't know this was happening!
Will definitely have a go. x
Posted by: Jacob Alan Oct 24 2016, 08:15 PM
This is killing me. I've got just over half and I recognise most of the rest but can't quite place them.
Posted by: HΞDA FROM HΞLL Oct 26 2016, 01:47 PM
Keep them coming, you've still got the rest of today all of tomorrow to enter
Posted by: PeteFromLeeds Oct 26 2016, 02:04 PM
I'll try and remember to give this a go
Posted by: UltraBasicWitch Oct 26 2016, 02:11 PM
I'll also try and remember to enter!
Posted by: The-BrightPlaces Oct 26 2016, 02:37 PM
I was at a pub quiz last night and two of the rounds was doing exactly this, it was so fun! you used better songs though
Posted by: Jade-o-Lantern Oct 26 2016, 03:02 PM
Entered! Absolutely love these types of games. Some very good songs in the mix *.*
Posted by: 👻 Booliver 👻 Oct 27 2016, 08:07 AM
Gonna do this when I get in from work tonight.
Posted by: HΞDA FROM HΞLL Oct 27 2016, 08:11 PM
a few hours left 
Posted by: Liаm Oct 28 2016, 10:40 AM
I will try and do this latr if it's not too late
edit: Done now, got most of them actually, or an answer for most of them shall I say. There's one particular act I didn't notice in there that must be in there so I tactically filled in my blanks
Posted by: 👻 Booliver 👻 Oct 28 2016, 11:40 AM
For a certain one I was like "this sounds so much like this song but it doesn't at the same time".
Posted by: HΞDA FROM HΞLL Oct 28 2016, 01:21 PM
So many of you are gonna kick yourselves at number thirteen I think
This is closed now btw
Posted by: 👻 Booliver 👻 Oct 28 2016, 04:33 PM

Posted by: HΞDA FROM HΞLL Oct 28 2016, 04:35 PM
Ya hopefully but I'm on a train right now :') I'll probably try and get them up around 8ish
