That was the tricky part - it makes it sooo much more confusion with the BPM changes and no gaps

Yeah it's pretty hard to even tell when it actually shifts to a new song because it's so chaotic. It'll really take a bit of time before I'm able to figure this one out.

Hmmmmmmmm...

I have a question - where multiple versions of a song are involved, are you after the precise version, or will you accept the most well-known artist for the song?

If the song has different versions, we need the actual version used here. You should find that they have notable differences in the synth sounds and orchestration. Put this way - I haven't used any songs that have two identical versions (e.g. Pagal vs. Pagyaru).

Also, i'll give you all a hint - each hook lasts either 2 beats, 4 beats or 8 beats, and there is a pattern to the duration.

I know this round is mega-difficult, so if you guys need extra time let me know how long you need - I can make the deadline tomorrow or Tuesday...

EDIT: I've just realised that Hook 16 has a very, very similar version by a different artist, so I will accept either artist name for this one, even though the hooks do sound notably different when heard normally.

need more time! D:

Are we finally gonna get results for this tonight?

Yes - it seemed the final round scared almost everyone away, so I'll post the results I have when I get home from work

I answered some of these ones, but I never had the motivation to finish for some reason. I think there's no way I'd ever beat DJ Mike TJG to be honest anyway, as he's completely amazing at this challenge!

yeah.. some i just completely guessed on because they were so hard... and i even knew the album

I think it's clear who won this first game to be honest - one person ran away with the competition, dropping only 17 points in the whole game!!...

DJ Mike TJG - congratulations! You truly know your Eurobeat hooks inside out!

Look out for another installment of the Synth Hook Challenge coming soon, and please feel free to give feedback on ways to keep the game interesting.

Sorry I didn't get my answers sent in; I got a few of them correct and would've actually been second (I got seven of the hooks correct), but I just completely lost focus and didn't actually send in what I guesses I had...

The only ones I actually knew were Ace Of Spades and Heroes Tonight. The rest I couldn't tell were they began nor were they ended LOL. None of those are super favs of mine, so no skin off my bones. Congrats to DJ Mike TJG - 153 points

Heh, it was a lot of fun trying to track down the ones I hadn't heard much before. I actually own Eurobeat Disney 2 but I've never listened to it (it came as part of a job lot a while back) so I would have never gotten that one without the album hint.

I think the best part is that this has re-introduced me to some songs I haven't had on my iPod in a very long while, so it basically acts as a Hidden Gem search!
