Some remixes really are great.

Seems only 3 of the songs had to be removed. :)

Ah, hope that doesn't affect my accuracy. I think to be on the safe side I'll just divert from remixes.

That's insane. And this is the same person who made headlines a year or two ago blasting Spotify's unfair terms, implying she cared about smaller artists getting by and wanted to stand up for the underdog. Guess I may have been right in thinking she was just acting as a pawn for her record label and trying to squeeze as much income out of streaming on their behalf.

I also had no idea Selena Gomez made music, huh.

If that's confusing, my only knowledge of Gomez is as an actress in Spring Breakers.

Ah crap music maker jam is not allowed either? I could've had like 30 extra submissions on here if I would've known that. Ah well, stolen music is more of my professional field anyways..

Response to Audio Portal Cleanup 2017-01-13 21:00:12


So I just did a search result on "Music Maker Jam" and "Magix Music Maker" both are not allowed. If any moderator disregards these submissions please tell me why so I can closely look next time instead of bindly reporting stuff that was made in Music Maker Jam.

^Magix Music Maker

Yes, Magix and MMJ are disallowed, as are songs that are only composed of loops. If you look up some of the stuff on YT made with Magix and MMJ it will become common sense -- and do give a listen to these. The samples are often easy to identify later. Due to the rights in these programs, they aren't permissible here. Keep the reports coming as always though. Between you, other users, and the mod team, we're fleecing the place pretty well and wiping the illegitimate crap off the map at a furious pace.

Sure, ask about them here and mention some of us mods. We'll take a gander. I'm going through the flags slowly. Got most of yours earlier except the MMJ submissions. Some of those users have a lot of content to go through and I am by no means an expert on MMJ or Magix. I've only seen and heard what people outright admitted, or some of the YT projects others made.

^The title raised a red flag, because I highly doubt any legit submission would say "DOWNLOAD THIS" as the title and then "For Geometry Dash" as the description.

^I listened to this song thinking it was Spag Heddy - Permanent. But the more I listened to it, it sounds very similar to Spag Heddy, I don't know which song this would be, since I have yet to finish going through Spag Heddy's library but I've heard enough of his songs to know that is definitely his style of music. (Now if I only I knew the song name, because I really want that one on my playlist. If any mods have the power to find out what mp3 file was uploaded and can tell me the name of the song, I'd really appreciate it).

^Sounds a little too good to be legit, especially for a first song.

^Just a bunch of random letters as a song title and description, but then provides a decent trap song. Yeah, red flag.

That's all I could find for the moment. I bookmarked all the unsure ones.

Besides from the weird intro, there is a comment from like 6 years ago that explains where it was stolen from.

^Author's stolen other songs

^Knife Party

^I believe I've reported several Timmy Trumpet songs

^I've reported a Lindsey Stirling song before, right? She's one of those orchestral dubstep artists who mainly uses a violin. She doesn't make the kind of music I'd ever listen to her, but I know of her because someone told me about her.

^This is that Roomie song, Muffin Time.

^I've reported another song with this alias

Whyd u delete them? Bluealpha told me its an update, and thats his music. I was reporting because i thought its wrong to upload the same music. Please recover all these songz

Maybe both were stolen songs? I don't know. I just noticed the second one said "update", I never actually listened to them.

As far as the bottom two, I think you concluded those were stolen.

These were all stolen from Skrillex or other known sources.

Pretty much. I couldn't ID some of the others but the ones I removed were definitely stolen.

Just getting on proper and checking everything out now. Keep them coming!

@MonsterboyGD Aye, mods want us to start putting a note on every song we report to this thread that gives them evidence why we think/know it's stolen. Even if it's a source or a surefire mention you've heard it somewhere. Especially if it's an artist that's not common to show up on this forum. It helps the mods, so yeh.

Ok, stolen stuff.

Woah dude, you're back. Yey.

Yeah, true. But EDM364 told me (and everyone else) we need to start putting notes on every report that we post here so they're not confused on what they're looking for. Which is why I was telling them it isn't theirs.

By the way, can any moderator tell me if LoopLabs is a disallowed DAW? Apparently it's this website, and from the sounds of it you're using preset loops. If so, then I guess this user I just found is going to be banned.
