Well, I zoned in on the last track, in fact the first two notes of the first track.
Here were my results (I won't refer to A or B, because I don't want to influence anyone else, I shall refer to Vanilla and Chocolate, but I won't tell you if Chocolate or Vanilla is A or B!) I created a playlist of just the Chocolate and Vanilla version of the last track (piano) and I did a blind test in "rounds", each round I randomly shuffled the playlist, hit next several times, and tried to determine if I liked one or the other. On the first round I liked Chocolate. So after that, I just tried to pick that likeable Chocolate sound. Basically, I zoomed through the first three rounds, and picked Chocolate each time. I heard a clear difference. Fourth and fifth rounds I was starting to think there might be something in it. Picked Chocolate both times. Sixth and seventh rounds I picked Chocolate and by this time I was convinced it wasn't luck. Eighth round I picked Vanilla. I rushed it but forgiveable. Ninth round I picked Chocolate but I really struggled. Perhaps my confidence was knocked by round eight. Tenth round, I'd really lost it. There were cars and ice-cream vans passing outside, I grumbled, I sighed, I got sweaty and twitchy. I spent 2-3 minutes going back and forth and picked Vanilla. I tried listening to some other music and coming back, but at the moment I can't determine a difference! However, I will definitely choose Chocolate on the survey because I preferred it when I was hearing the difference. I tried to keep the above as factual as possible, you may have your own interpretation of the story. Personally, I feel what happened is consistent with my previous statements about fatigue with blind tests.
