@Quarl regarding the deleted review, it's against the review guidelines to accuse a user of stolen content in the review space, or to rate a submission based on that kind of hunch rather than judging the content itself.

If you're wrong, it could create a negative wave of ratings based on that misinformation, & even if you're 100% right in a review like that it's liable to be deleted for consistency & to discourage others doing the same. Just use flags / PMs / this thread instead.

Makes perfect sense. Sorry bae.

About to hit 100 flags today (playing catch up), if anyone wants freebies there are a few versions of Childish Gambino's "This Is America" floating around.

I wanted to put this one here for input:

The profile shares a name with the YouTube user, so there is a chance it's legit (I hope it is, it's nice music). There aren't any link-outs to the creators Twitter/YouTube/SoundCloud. I just didn't want this one to be lost in the mix because I'm not solidly convinced it is stolen.

for these ones the accounts are pretending to be the original creators. im p sure these composers arent on newgrounds. there's no information anywhere, and their pages are far too blank to be legit.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but remixes of copyrighted music are not okay. Also correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure someone like Selena Gomez copyrights their stuff.

This also seems very copyrighted, and not even a remix, just the original.

Both gone. Good job. The first one was a remix but it was stolen outright from youtube.

I think I've confirmed this one is taken straight from the original author, without changes, but I haven't had time to verify the second one, though they are by the same original author and uploader and they're both the original lengths

Both were by MiatriSs, and both are now gone.

Yayyyy-er, I mean, uh, JUSTICE HAS BEEN SERVED!!!

Even IF this were a remix, which it's not, judging by the length and sameness, it would not be justified, since I'm pretty goddamn sure Capcom copyrights their OSTs.

Cough, flag it, cough. I'll give you a few minutes.

Also the art is stolen.

Yeah, I flagged it right after posting this. Take him away, officer! Oh wait, I'm a police officer. Huh.

Well, the guy who uploaded this has a different name than the creator of the track. He also refers to the author in the 3rd person, and was kind enough to provide a link to the song on Youtube , which seems to be identical, and I don't see a reason why the person who made the music would do that, unless they wanted people to watch the video there and subscribe, but that's unlikely. With all the evidence against the guy, I think he's pretty guilty. Although I don't see why someone would steal something with only 23K views, unless they thought it would be less likely that they get caught. But then again, if they didn't want to get caught, why link to the original? Whatever, I'm flagging it.

Gone. Feel free to just flag and put your comment in the flag. When I'm on I check them every hour-ish if I'm doing other things. Otherwise you can also collect and post multiple entries in one to keep everything all neat and tidy.

Sorry, it's just that I don't really have time to collect a bunch of them at once, because it usually takes me a while to make sure something is properly stolen (properly stolen?), I know you're supposed to keep it in one post. I guess tomorrow morning or something I could round up a few of them, otherwise, I'll put it in the flag. If I'm really not sure baout something, then I'll consult this thread.

Fair enough, I know it can be time consuming to make lists.

If anyone recognizes this particular bit of music, please help identify it. I have good reasons to believe it's stolen. For one, the genre is supposed to be heavy metal. Even more importantly, it was uploaded by a very likely alt of a spammer who has been spamming the portal (along with a possible crew) for some days now. It is very hard to believe he actually made this music himself, as he takes everything from elsewhere, and the original stuff is just spam. So, if you know where it came from, please reply.

So far, I've found these 2:

First is a nightcore, and the second is just stolen and the author admits to this in the description

Edit: found this one as well.

Taken from Parappa the rapper, which is a video game. But even more than that, I can pinpoint the exact Youtube video it was taken from. The video was uploaded on January 14, 2008 by the channel RhythmAndMusic. Both the song here and in the video have a long silence at the end, which starts at the same time in both.

Sorry, my bad, guys. I swear when I was listening to this it had that same long silence. It doesn't anymore. Is there a way for people to update and edit their audio submissions? The song is still stolen from the game, the video just isn't confirmed anymore.

Both the same song, taken from

This one downright states it's from DJ-Jo, who hasn't uploaded here in years.

This one's a popular meme, and I'm pretty sure the creator hasn't uploaded it here.

Yes, they just click an edit button and can change the file out.

Nico likes compliments, but dislikes people who upload stolen audio. It says it right in her bio. Thanks for dropping in!

Can't see anything wrong with this:

This is copyrighted, right? It can't be remixed. Either way, I think I've found the exact video it was taken from on the channel ThePendulumMusic, because both have a 3-minute silence.

Correct me if that turns out to be a non-copyrighted thing or something, but i think Warner Music is gonna copyright their stuff.

Also, this:

Don't forget a link.

And, there's the copyright question, but there's also the issue of 'did they create it?' If it's not copyrighted, but they didn't create it, then it goes away. Like this one. VVV

Sometimes they do that on purpose. Still, gone. Also, when you find a thief, check their account to see if they have others that violate the rules so you can flag them all. :)

Yeah, I was pretty sure that it was stolen anyway, I mentioned that at the start of my post. And about the guy who had other stolen things, I was honestly a bit lazy and didn't have time to look through stuff on YouTube, and the first thing I found didn't have a matching time so I gave up and just did something else. I think I may have found the thing now, but it won't do much good at this point. I swear I'll be more thorough in the future, and not let laziness compromise me in protecting the Audio Portal. I hope. Actually, I'll probably skip out on checking some stuff if I don't think it's obviously stolen, because I don't have that much time when I can do this stuff. But, I will try to be more thorough. Thank you for the advice.

A stolen mashup of copyrighted song(s). A double offense, I guess
