That's a nice mechanic to keeps things fair. It can be applied in various games to maintain a balance of difficulty when needed. Thanks for the suggestion! I'll use it the next time I slip this little game in somewhere.
The circle version is good for a full game. Especially with a rhythm section in the middle of the circle.

If the judge can't play it again, though, play continues as though the contestant had properly replicated the phrase (or, in a stricter version, the judge him/herself is out). This would prevent the judge from playing something unreasonably difficult.

You could also play this in a circle: player 1 plays a phrase and player 2 plays it back, then player 2 plays a phrase and player 3 has to play it back, and so on. A player who can't replicate a phrase is out, and the last player standing is the winner. To make the game last a bit longer, a player who can't replicate a phrase might get a strike against them, and a player who accumulates a set number of strikes is out.
