Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Song Quiz

You hear one second of a real Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan recording and name it. Land it straight away and the round is worth five points. Miss or skip and the clip grows to two seconds, then four, seven and eleven, worth less every time. Five Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan tracks per run, roughly two minutes, and the guess box suggests titles as you type so spelling never costs you a round.

Tracks are pulled live from the public catalogue, so the five you get change every run. Expect titles like Tere Bin Nahin Lagda, Afreen Afreen, Dam Mast Qalandar, Sanson Ki Mala. Each round also starts at a random point in the recording, so Tere Bin Nahin Lagda opening on a verse and Tere Bin Nahin Lagda opening on the chorus are two completely different puzzles.

Harder than the mixed desi quiz. When every round is Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, the genre and era clues you normally lean on in the first second are gone, so you are separating Afreen Afreen from Dam Mast Qalandar on texture alone. Most casual listeners need three or four seconds a track; regulars get there in one.

No, but it helps. Knowing Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and recognising Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan in a single second turn out to be very different skills, which is why the first round humbles almost everyone. If it bites, try the wider Desi quiz first and come back.

Yes. No sign-up, no download, no cost. The Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Song Quiz runs in any browser on phone, tablet or desktop, and you can replay it as many times as you like because the Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan tracks reshuffle each run.
