If by lurking you mean going away for 3 weeks without access to a computer then yes, that's exactly what I was doing.

Not one of my favourites, but still a solid track, I liked the synth quite a lot.

#2
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/4 38098

Quite a rough, classic Acid-Paradox dubstep track, I quite liked this, but the NI Massive Basses were pretty recognisable.

#3

My favourite one from the whole 5, I'm glad to see BFP got his well-deserving spot.

#4
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/4 37726

Fitting of the name, wonderful melodies, the piano itself sounded pretty harsh though.

#5

Very Creepy, this is one of the most emotional classical tracks I've heard in a while, excellent choirs too.

Kinda cool but there's not too much interesting there for a 5 minute song

Cool song but the vocals (both the voice and the lyrics) are too silly for me to take it seriously

Er, not that interesting imo

500 billion bucks if i put my 8 bit song up earlier before it got zero bombed it would be up there, but oh well, ONTO TEH REVIEW things...

#1

I'm gonna have to be a bit biased since i'm mates with him (and we have the same name :P) but i love this track, it is a bit long, but it is an instrumental mix so he hasn't added the vocals yet.

#2

Hectic, awesome song, I love this one, great vocals, great melodies for the start, not so sure about the monster part though, it would sound a lot better if he screamed monster rather than made it really dark and deep, only part that i dodn't think fitted, apart from that well deserving of it's spot :D

#3

Sorry BFP, can't really review this since it's not my style and i found it quite hard to listen to :/

#4

I agree with SBB, it does sound like he's just grabbed a MIDI and put FL Keys over it, mind you if he didn't, it's impressive :D

#5

Sorry I can't really review this either, but to me it's boring and nothing interesting, not very deserving of it's spot.

Nah i don't care for the top 5 ,what i think is sad is how we are a bunch of hypocrites because there's always people acting like professional critics saying stuff like: "oh the quality is terrible" "NEEDS MORE BASS" "THERE'S NO SONG STRUCTURE" etc.

But then they love the noise of some random flash artist not because it's funny or good , they like it just because who that guy is. I bet you that if someone else would do something similar, it wouldn't be the same.

In conclusion :

You fart in public = Nobody cares.

Lady Gaga farts in public = Fuck the presidential elections, this is going to our newspaper frontpage.

How exactly are the top 30 songs decided, because it's not in order of score, listens, downloads or anything?

Eh?
They are originally the songs with the top scores across all the sections made at any time during the audio portal.
The scores just go up and down depending on whether people like them or not.

I think thats it at least.

This is a signature.

My bands song let me see your face is number one in ska and it has a score of 4.47 which is higher than some of the ones in the "top 30" and it never shows up there

Response to The weekly tops discussion thread 2011-08-18 10:17:38


I believe it goes like this:

Every week, the system checks the score of every submission, regardless of its genre or date submitted, and the ones with the top 30 highest scores at that moment are showcased in the Top 30. The only requirement to make it in is that you have a high enough score AND your song has 20 votes or more.

Autotuney standard pop ballad. Lyrics are significantly inferior to #3

There was probably much better liquid/atmospheric dnb submitted this week.

It goes by IP adresses, i think. Use multiple accounts and unsecured networks in your area and you're bound to make it up there.

Not that I'm talking out of experience or anything...

Anyways, not too impressed by this week's selection. Oh well, more reason to anticipate the redesign.
