Soundtrack Sleuth

How it helps

Use it for a focused task

Soundtrack Sleuth is a quiz ladder that plays short Web Audio synthesized cues and asks you to name the film. Each answer unlocks a short explanation of why the cue sounds the way it does, plus common mix-ups.

Pick a tier, listen to the cue, type your guess, and submit. You can replay the cue, skip it, or reveal the answer.

Results save locally so you can track your streak and accuracy across sessions. You start to notice how composers reuse intervals, orchestration, and rhythm across films, which makes you faster at placing a cue the next time you hear it in a trailer or meme.
