Welcome to the 16th annual Newgrounds Audio Deathmatch!


First held in 2009 by @Step and @Echo, the Newgrounds Audio Deathmatch (NGADM) is a long running mostly single-elimination tournament where musicians all over the world arrive to prove their mettle in head-to-head battles. The objective of the competition is simple: score high and avoid elimination!


Preceding the tournament structure of NGADM is a three-week-long auditions round, which begins with the creation of this thread. Auditions are open to everyone, and in contrast to the later rounds, you can submit a track which you have made previously at any point in time and for any purpose, provided of course that it is otherwise in accordance with the rules. The 64 highest scoring auditionees will proceed into the tournament brackets, and the Deathmatch shall begin!


Want to try your luck in the arena? The deadline for auditions is July 21st, 11:59 EST. You have time until then to post a link to the track you wish audition with on this thread.
