NGADM 2017 | INFO | Auditions | Round of 64 / 32 / 16 / 8 / 4FINALESixth Round Deadline | Pairing


Hiya, everyone!

I'm on time, this time :O
I tried to be a responsible adult, so I went to sleep early. Well, turns out I woke up after 3 hours and couldn't fall back asleep. I've got a very busy week ahead of me, so I figured if I'm going to be awake anyway, I'd do something useful. And isn't that great! Now we get to share our excitement about the semifinals, and anticipate the GRAND FINALE together!!!


Calling the semifinals exciting might even be an understatement. At one point in time, we didn't know whether all of the tracks would make it in time. One of them didn't, so it was immediately disqualified.
NAAAH, I kid of course! What kind of semifinal would that be? Thankfully, the merciful arrangers of the competition, and just as importantly, the competitior of the latecomer allowed for a delay, because of the circumstances. And what a close round it was!

We see some of the highest scores from the judges in this round. I guess it's only natural, since all four competitors (3 individuals and one team) very much deserve to be where they're at, and have all fought hard for their placements. Hence, they turned out some killer tracks! If you haven't already (and even if you have), go check them all out in this small, yet amazing playlist!

 

We're about to move on to the results, but as always, it's time to show our appreciation to @Ceevro for providing us with the fantastic artwork for the NGADM 2017!

SEMIFINALS

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The order of scores by judge: @Bosa@ChronoNomad@ADR3-N; @Samulis; @Skyewint@TaintedLogic.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

@etherealwinds - Chapter II: Believe: 9.40 / 9.47 / 9.50 / 9.4 / 9.00 / 9.75 ~ Average: 9.42

(The one who somehow made a track in two days!!!)

VS. 

(The MVP of the round!!!)

@FinnMK - Oh Mama Hey!: 9.40 / 9.45 / 9.79 / 9.2 / 9.50 / 9.50 ~ Average: 9.47

 

WINNER: FinnMK

======================

 

@steelside - Fires: 9.22 / 9.26 / 9.13 / 9.85 / 8.60 / 8.00 ~ Average: 8.84

(The Dark Horse; The Underdog!!!)

VS. 

(The sole 'surviving' [resurrected] team!!!)

@johnfn & @ethansight - Dreamworld: 9.3 / 9.33 / 9.27 / 9.5 / 9.00 / 8.75 ~ Average: 9.19

 

WINNER: johnfn & ethansight

=============================================================================
=============================================================================


Oh my, weren't those some results? 

Here come some more averages for those of us who like to look at numbers:

 

4894290_150751073513_NGADM2017SemiScores.png

 

What's this? Not a single average is below 9 this round! That's quite something :O
This time, it's Samulis' turn to be closest to the average, with a difference of 0.01 :)


 

I can't believe how quickly time progresses. If you're going to complain (I know you're not; don't ruin this) about the fact that I've said it before, the fact that you remember it only proves my point ;p
We've already reached the final stage of the competition. The finalists consist of a team in which one member is a former victor of the NGADM, and the opposition has an insane score average, in every round! Who can tell how it'll turn out? I certainly can't, so I'll leave it up to time to tell :)

I want to thank etherealwinds and steelside for doing their best every round! As Chrono said; with music this good we're all winners. I also want to thank the judges (and organizers) for their hard work. Once again, I want to give massive props, as well as a shout-out to FinnMK. He could've decided to win outright since his opponent was late with his entry, BUT he decided to be an incredible sport and ended up winning the round fair and square.

Check out the confirmed top-four competitors (5 peeps, 'cuz o' the team):

FinnMK

etherealwinds

steelside

johnfn

ethansight



Now then. I didn't want to distract from the post with this little section here. When not scribing around, I usually use this spot for shilling a little. I hope you don't mind!
It's not really kosher to upload covers to NG anymore, so I tend to record myself playing them for YouTube instead. Yesterday, I played a classic I'm sure most of you recognize. If you're not too busy, why don't you check it out?

 

Over the Rainbow - Piano Cover

 

All that's left to say, is best of luck to the remaining contestants! I'm very much looking forward to your GRAND FINALE tracks. Take your time, and make sure to blow us (as well as the competition) away. Godspeed!

I know, I know. I'm a bit late with this one.

I've been having some intense University studies, so I have that to blame ^___^

 

Has time really moved this fast? There's not too much left of this little (not so little) competition! The remaining musicians are fewer, but the stakes are higher!
I'm sure many of you are busy with work or studies, but even so the contest progresses. Make sure you don't miss out on it! That's why I'm writing this post.

Before the results of this round were released, ChronoNomad uploaded another podcast! I recommend you check it out, if you haven't. As for the tracks, you'll find them in this neat playlist!!

Lemme just say it's always a blast to listen to what the musicians of the community can come up with when matched up with one another. That is one of the main beauties of the NGADM.

 

As you may know by now (still worth repeating tho), our contest art was gracefully made by none other than @Ceevro!

Now then, it's time for the results!

Whoopety doop! Here I crunched the numbers a bit to find out what the averages are, in case you are interested.

 

4894290_150594217072_NGADM2017SemiScores.png

 

This time, Bosa seemed to be quite close to the average average! That said, two other judges were within 0.10 from it too, which is pretty impressive (or you know, coincidental).


 

We're reaching the final stages of the competition now, with only a couple rounds more to go! Namely, the ongoing semifinals along with the grand finale. Only three competitors + one team left at this point o.O!

Regardless of how the rest of the contest turns out, I hope everyone is content with their participation! Especially the remaining contestants ;)

If you're just here to read about the updated situation, all the better! I hope we still have a lot of people keeping up with the results, after all.

That's all you get for now! Stay tuned, since the semifinalists are working on their tracks, and the finalists will be announced in a few weeks!!!

Well well, hehhe.

Seems like the results were a bit early this time around, so to balance it out I did you a favor by being a bit late with my post ;) *cough*
 

Hey, this was another supercalifragilisticexpialidocious round! Dare I say with some expected, and some unexpected results? There were no walkovers; hooray for that! Once again though, one of the judges (different one) was unfortunately busy with "real life", so to speak. Hopefully, for the last few rounds they'll all be able to partake in the judging, if for nothing else than the fewer remaining champions. And congratulations to all who made it through!!!
The pressure is certainly intensifying. Thank you for participating, to all who unfortunately have to wait until next year to compete again.

If you haven't heard all of the tracks from this round, or if you want to relisten to them all in a compiled and easy manner (like I have been doing while making this post), this playlist will suit those needs perfectly :)

Of course, props to @Ceevro for providing this lovely art for the competition. Since it is a competition, perhaps we should move on to the results?

Once again, I tried to conclude some simple averages. Lemme know if my work is messy, since it's past 5am.

4894290_150397265832_NGADM2017R16Scores.png

This round, the average average seems to agree with ADR3-N! (Unless I've made some calculatory errors).


 

Fewer and fewer people remain in the competition! We're down from 16 to just 8-bit (battlers in tonality) now. Who will have the Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent to make it all the way to the end? Continue to tune in, if you want to find out!

For now, I will instead tune out until my services are needed again (in three weeks, to be more precise). Fare well, until then!

Yo!

Another round of the Audio Competition just wrapped up. I told myself to finish this post within 24 hours of the results being revealed. Here we are, 23.5 hours later, with another summary. All that's left to do is to acually summarize!

There were some twists and turns this time around. We had a few walkovers, and a judge who unfortunately was preoccupied. Even so, the competition goes on and we all got to listen to 29 tracks of varying styles. I recommend that if you haven't, you listen to them (all linked below), and maybe leave a review or two! In case you are interested, a playlist has also been compiled.

In addition, the main organizer (@ChronoNomad) uploaded another podcast in which he talks about the contest. Check it out!

At this point I have a feeling most of you know the drill. Thus, I'll move on to the results! Before that, I once again want to give a shoutout to @Ceevro for the totally tubular spray paint art!

I didn't find them anywhere, but I took the freedom to calculate approximate judge averages too. It's late at night, so I won't vouch for their accuracy. Either way, here they are:

@Bosa ≈ 8.36

@ChronoNomad ≈ 8.49

@ADR3-N ≈ 8.48

@Samulis ≈ 8.03

@TaintedLogic ≈ 8.46


Average average ≈ 8.36 (Seems like Bosa was on point!)


 

Congrats to the winners of this round!

It certainly won't get easier from here on out, so you best be prepared. Once again, I am personally excited to see what all of you will come up with for the next round. I am also willing to bet I am not the only one, so get your game on! 

I would write more, but it's late at night and I have to get up early, so I'll leave the winners to think about their upcoming works, and the rest of us to wait in excitement (and possibly, perhaps, conceivably procrastinate a little bit in between). Best of luck!

Until next round ;)

Sup!

So the round of 64 has passed, and along with it so have half the contestants. Well... At least out of the competition; I sure hope they haven't passed away because of the disappointment :V

Even so they all brought something to the table, and fought bravely. As expected, the competition was intense, and there was even some very minor drama here and there in the forum (dare I say, as expected). There were some delays, and a few people had to drop out. In the end we got 61 tracks out of 64 possible, which isn't bad! Especially not considering the quality of them.

A special shoutout to Phonometrologist for scoring the highest points in the round, with a whopping 9.62 average!

No pressure in the coming round, hehhe ;)

Once again, huge thanks to all the organizers and judges, along with all who are donating to the prize pool! And of course, to all who participate. Keep up the strong game, and we'll enjoy seeing how far you can take your music in this ever more challenging deathmatch.

In all likelyhood you didn't come here to read my ongoing ramblling, so I'll give you the results forthright!
(After this really cool Spray Paint by Ceevro):

Congratulations to all the winners!

And huge props to all who made it this far. Once again, I hope that all of the discourse (be it in the forums, or elsewhere) remains civil. Hopefully, according to plan the judges will pop up with at least a few reviews for every track. Additionally, I'm sure they'd be happy to tell you their reasoning for the scores if you send the personal PM's, respectfully requesting such.

All that said, the contest is yet far from over. I wish all the remaining competitors the best of luck!!!
Get your A game on, and hopefully you'll be able to surpass not only your competitor, but more importantly, yourself.

I for one will very much enjoy seeing both the journey and the outcome of the NGADM 2017!

That's all for now, folks.

NGADM 2017 | INFO | Auditions / Results | First Round Deadline | Pairing


Well, well, well. If it isn't time for the Newgrounds Audio Deathmatch of 2017!!!

Considering the amount of applying contestants (236, unless I'm mistaken?), I think it's safe to say that a lot of us were happy that the competition wasn't discontinued after all, but only went on a hiatus for a year in order to spare room for what'll possibly become the biggest NGADM in Newgrounds history :O!!!

Let's make it happen!

 

4894290_149849645583_NGADM2017.png

 

Now, out of all the applicants, unfortunately only 64 could move on to the actual competition stage. That said, it has been said before, and I'll say it again; not applying is a fairly *cough* certain way not to win ;)

There are a ton of highly skilled musicians in the contest, so the competition will be tough to say the least. This year, the top auditionees were put up against each other, and the bottom auditioners were paired as well. With any luck, this will lead to both a fair game, and motivation to pour real effort into loads of incredible music. Unless I'm mistaken, on some previous years the people at the top have occasionally enjoyed an advantage by being paired with lesser scorers, though perhaps not in the round of 64. There have been years with groupings of 4 as well, but this year we're back to the 1 vs 1 deathmatches (aside from the teams)!

I'm sure there'll be a lot of emotions spreading through the air as the tension increases with every round. Even so, hopefully we'll all be able to remain civil, respect the other contestants, as well as the organizers and judges. Speaking of the judges, they've worked very hard to filter through all of the music so far, in order to give us the 32 segments of the deathmatch; each consisting of all in all 64 artists/teams, which makes for 69 competing musicians altogether.

Here are the hard workers themselves (in the same order as the given scores will be displayed):

@Bosa @ChronoNomad @EDM364 @Samulis @SkyeWint @TaintedLogic

A huge thanks to them for the work done, and for the work to come! Let us competitors not lose to them in terms of spirit!

Anyway... The entire point of this post is to give you another place to see the summarized results, as I've taken on the role of the Scribe this year. Thus, I'll cease my yammering, and get on to the numbers!
Without further ado, here are the results!!

And those are all who made it in this year! If you haven't yet done so, make sure to listen to some of the tracks :)

By the way, please remind me to ask for the Excel files next time...

Considering I manually wrote out hundreds of numbers, it would be beyond a miracle if I didn't get some of them wrong, so let me know it you make note of some remarkable errors.

So, with all this commotion, it's time to get our creative engines running! And I expect the show to be a lot of fun for the observers as well.

Over and out!

Hello everyone!

So the NGADM will be starting soon, which is very exciting :D!
I am definitely planning on taking part of it, and I hope many of you do as well!

Also, the chipscompo is a new up-and-coming set of contests. I recommend you either check out the NG post about it, or the website itself!

That said, the main reason I've writing this post, is because I want to promote a collaboration with @Etherealwinds, which we finally managed to get together a video for! Huge props to Jordi for his tireless editing. As you might suspect, in this collaboration of ours, I played the piano (+ threw together some strings), while Jordi sang some lovely words in a beautiful manner!

We'd be very grateful if you'd be so kind as to check out our joint effort!
Without further ado, here ya go:

Thanks a lot for the support; I hope you enjoy the listen!
Unfortunately, NG cannot really allow covers at the moment, but if you want to download the track, you can get it here:

That's all for me this time. I suppose the next time I write, it might be more about the NGADM, so stay tuned ;)
Until then,

Greetings.

I would like to inform you of an under the radar project that has been in the workings for a while. It's a collaborative album, between myself, and some fellow NG musicians. The project was initiated by @backwardecho, and to a large extent organized/moderated by @ForgottenDawn. The other participants are:

@Phonometrologist
@EvilRaccoon
@Mattashi
@Enzer0
@SoundChris
@LarryNachos
@JacobCadmus
@RealFaction

More importantly, the purpose of the album was to celebrate the existence of a common friend of ours, namely @MactaMendax. He is known by many names, more than most people can keep track of. Dem0lecule, silencefreedom, Kat Maestro, SnowTeddy, Anarkat & Agitat0r, to name a few. So chances are you've heard of him!
He has simultaneously been lurking in the shadows, and openly created some marvelous pieces of music, as well as art. Even more so, he always helps those who are in need. So now, we all came together in order to show our support. Thus, we would thank you for checking out the (free) album we put together:

m0lecular - soundwaves in liberty

Other than that, because dem0 is a kind soul and always helps out those who need it most, we also want to highlight a charity. If you would be so kind, please check it out:

https://www.gofundme.com/help-my-abused-girlfriend-move


Naturally, most of the tracks already are, or will be posted to Newgrounds as well. We recommend you check out the album, though ^____^
 

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, and for checking out what we've made! That's all for this update.
Over and out!

This is Justina, a good friend of mine.

She is currently going through a very rough patch in life, and she is facing both medical and residential emergencies. It would mean the world to her if you helped her out just a little bit, financially. You can read more about the specific situation, on her GoFundMe:

https://www.gofundme.com/medical-residential-emergency/

I donated a small amount myself, and I hope you find it within yourself to help as well! Even if you cannot contribute monetarily, you can still help in sharing this with others! Thank you.


In related news, I composed a small song dedicated to her today, in order to spread the word. You can listen to it here on Newgrounds, if you feel like it:

The Aberrant Snowflake

Or watch the failed video on Youtube.



Edit: On second thought, it's probably worth mentioning that she has a youtube channel, and that she is a wonderful singer as well.

 

 


That's all of your time I intend to take. Thank you once again for listening, and I hope you have a wonderful day.
