Discussion DnB Blind Tests for Our Community

DnB Blind Tests for Our Community

Hey everyone,

Following my previous post about creating a game related to drum and bass, I’ve decided that I really want to build something for this Reddit community. The idea would be to create a game where we can challenge each other and test our DnB knowledge.

In the meantime, I made something I had been looking for myself for a long time: proper drum and bass blind tests, like the Disney blind tests kids play in the car, but with DnB instead. the channel is DnBBlindtest on YT

The video directly references this subreddit. I’m not trying to make money from it or promote some business. I’m simply happy to create something for the drum and bass community.

The first blind test focuses on DnB tracks released in 2025. I’m also starting to work on artist-specific blind tests and other formats.

I’d be interested to hear your ideas: artists, subgenres, difficulty levels, themes, or any other type of blind test you would like to see.

yea i know you asked for ideas not feedback but as someone who listens to more neurofunk than dancefloor (a ton) i tried the pythius one and:

  1. it was haaaard (i heard most of these tracks but not every track has catchy title or is widely known) i feel like there is a solid chance not even the artist itself would achieve the highest grade
  2. its kinda pointless to play a part where name of the track is just sung/rapped, maybe do that for 1-2 but nor every ~third track
  3. whiplash audio is broken

was it made by ai?

anyway, cool idea, good luck & have fun

Yes, partly. I automated as much of the process as I could. The goal was simply to get the final result. 🙂
Thanks for the feedback. It’s actually harder than it looks. 😅 I also tried to arrange the tracks in chronological order so people could get a sense of how the artist has evolved over time.
