https://sticetm.newgrounds.com/ Yo the shit this motherfuckers puts here under his name is weird.He is approved as well.
Can someone check if any of this audio is his or not?I think he just puts a dampener and some effects on pre existing files and calls it a day.
This Dire Dire Docks piece is the original music from Super Mario 64 slowed down with some other stuff slapped on it kinda lazily. Probably some stuff from the trapstep sample pack and a sidechain plugin preset. I'm just not hearing a lot of effort in this one.


Yeah, and the first one is StickerBrush symphony that is from Dankey Kang.I get the feeling he just took existing songs and added some effects on them.And that applies to his entire submission list.Its suspicious as fugg.It says he made em a lofi beat and i dunno if that gets past the rules or not either.

His 2019 submissions seem legit, but he lacks any descriptions saying what he used or anything and, this is just conjecture cuz there's not much of a way to tell (since we know people can cover things note for note) but they could be midi rips with different instruments and a 'lo fi' beat. Just conjecture, they might be legit.


Now most the 2020 submissions are markedly different and are sampling from what are for me mostly unknown sources, but the song names seem related to the source material.


That's sampling Benny Goodman's 'In The Mood' a classic swing track I think most of us recognize, but some of these others seem to be sampling songs I'm not familiar with, a couple it sound like he could've made the sample himself, but lacks any information in his description boxes. I wouldn't want to judge his whole repertoire based on a few solidly ripped off tracks, but he gives me nothing to go on.

Samples a french rapper


"(This song is made in Magix Music Maker at 85 BPM)" in the description. Magix music maker is against AP rules.


Yo, someone check this account:

https://thearcadium.newgrounds.com/


Whoever it is appears to be just uploading music from other artists, not their own original content. I think they're trying to just upload stuff they like that has 'no copyright' or whatever, but that doesn't mean they should be just copypasting music they didn't make into the portal.

Slow down on the Magix issue. It depends on what Magix software was used.


We've always had this rule:

"You may not upload music made with Magix Music Maker, Soundation or you.dj.


Besides falling under the Stock Loops rule, Magix Music Maker automatically puts all songs you create with it under its own license - uploading the song to Newgrounds is in violation of that license.


Soundation and you.dj have similar issues where you do not retain full rights to the music you create using these services."


Not to mention the sticky LexRodent did about sample based music.


But what are you talking about though?

I don't know much about audio, but this new account uploaded something, and it seems a bit fishy.



Not sure if it is, but if you guys want to give it a listen.

Most new audio from new accounts are fishy.


The story is:

Most new accounts are Geometry dash players that try to put their favorite song in the game, but they find out that doesn't work and just let the account be dead after a while.


I've lost count over how many accounts I've banned that had audio submitted the same day as they joined.

Eh, I've pretty much quit GD creating now. I haven't declared Aspire dead yet, but it's not exactly alive either.

It would help if you consolidated all your one liners into a one-post list. It makes it easier to check through rather than seeing a big ol pile of notifications to sort through. You made 8 separate posts in a 19 minute window with the last one essentially complaining that us mods are taking too long. Chill.


and delete these songs


Watch the backseat driving please, that's for us to decide.


We see your flags and post, and we will get to it in sequence.

To add to these, the uploader also uploaded two more audio submissions with the exact same audio. All uploaded on these times: 1:53 PM EDT, 1:56 PM EDT, and 1:57 PM EDT.


So in a span of 5 minutes, this guy seems to have uploaded 3 identical tracks. All of it being "What You Want" by Kevin Macleod.

Always appreciate when everyday people take the time to help clean up the site. Please note we all get notifications following this thread for the new tracks you post, so if you can, try to edit your last post with any new links, just to make sure we don't lose them in our feeds.

At 9/30/20 03:17 PM, GregNG wrote:@Seth Also one question, what happens if a ng user is caught stealing and uploading a song? Do they get banned for life or temporarily?


You can ask anyone on the mod team these questions, but you'll find most of them in the AP rules and FAQ.


Bans are temporary unless the user does something really stupid or basically intends to forever try to flout the rules.


Also, please, please try to limit the amount of responses one after the other like this. If you can edit the post, just add more to your last post. CTRL+C and CTRL+V are good for putting several replies together in one response. It's kind of tedious, but so is having to check my feed every three seconds. If you're on mobile, it's a little harder, but it's just polite :)

Your audio can not damage ears or be painful to listen to.
White noise, blowing into the microphone, screaming, text-to-speech, etc. doesn't belong in the Audio Portal.

So I have some suspicions about this but am not sure. I'm just suspicious because its really good for his first submission and the title is 'Geometry Dash'.

It's also a cover of the Rick Roll song so there's that too.

Well I stumbled upon a ton of stolen stuff


Taken from the OST of Undertale:

Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWjavxcGfqM


Another stolen from an Undertale Fangame(?):

Youtube Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Po-jtwFDnFs

I think the original audio is here:https://gamejolt.com/games/ULB/424292


 

Two Songs from Oliver Tree:

Song link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wLLgJ_a7Rs


Song link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-qvuB2clYw


Two songs from One Republic (well it's the same song but two uploads):


Song link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hT_nvWreIhg


A FNAF song stolen from NateWantsToBattle:

Song Link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OuwBTqUaug


These two say that the owner gave them permission to use these for Geometry Dash, but they didn't make what they uploaded:
