I have a few that are 11-14minutes in length, I know other users have things in the 20-25minute range. Alot of the longer pieces are split into parts.

im talking about the longest single part submission, not a multi-part song

If we're talking with decent quality, I'd say the longest is around 9-10 minutes... Why? Because there is a mb limit on your songs... which I believe is 8 mb (Correct me if I'm wrong) currently.

How do I know this? Because I tried uploading a 10 min song once and had to cut the last minute off to meet the file limit. So the only real way to get around that would be to kill the quality... something no self respecting musician would do just to put the whole thing up in a single upload.

Self plug, 10 seconds longer then the first commented lengthy one and the quality is fine. It can be done, at a file size of 7.3mb one could feasibly get an 11:30-ish of equivalent quality up if getting closer to 8mb limit.

My most recent song is actually a single submission, and it's 11:46.

But the quality is -garbage-. I definitely recommend posting longer songs in parts.

One of my tracks, "I Love Banana", which I made for funny with a couple of friends, clocks at almost 10 minutes. Pure Black/Doom Metal, hahaha XD

I'm pretty sure Lasmush had like a 25 minute long song that he wanted to upload here and see if could get the size restriction changed for him. Never happened so he broke it up into 4 parts.

I think it was Lashmush, it could be somebody else.

Since the time is listed on the song pages, this shitty Python code will go through every song page, and find the one with the longest time (unless there are songs longer than 1 hour on Newgrounds). It's quite slow and creates ~20 gigabytes of traffic since it needs to get the HTML for each page, so I'm going to run it in chunks and come back here with the results next week or something.

import requests
def scanAudioPortal(start, stop):
    maxtime = 0
    for id in range(start, stop, 1):
        url = 'http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/' + str(id)
        try:
            response = requests.get(url, headers={'user-agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'})
            times[id] = getTime(response.text)
            if times[id] > maxtime:
                maxtime = times[id]
                print("The longest song found so far has ID %s and is %s seconds (%s minutes and %s seconds) long" % (id, maxtime, maxtime // 60, maxtime % 60))
        except Exception:
            pass
    return times

def getTime(html):
    if "No Audio Project exists" in html:
        return 0
    time = (((((html.split('<dl class="sidestats">')[1]).split('</dl>')[0]).split('<dd>'))[4]).split('</dd>'))[0] # sorry
    if ' min ' in time:
        times = time.split(' min ')
        return int(times[0])*60 + int(((times[1]).split(' sec'))[0])
    else:
        return int((time.split(' sec'))[0])

# Edit these if you don't want everything at once
start = 1
stop = 706940

times = scanAudioPortal(1, 706940)
winner = max(times, key=times.get)
print("---\nDONE\n---\nThe longest song has ID %s and is %s seconds (%s minutes and %s seconds) long" % (winner, times[winner], times[winner] // 60, times[winner] % 60))

(if it wasn't clear: please don't copypaste and run the above without changing the start and stop range to something reasonable like a few thousands of ID's -- if not you're just clogging your own internet connection and performing a really inefficient DOS attack on NG)

That was a hilariously pointless bump. Anyway, cool to see that someone is actually going to find out what the longest song is now that the filesize limit is more like 250 MB or whatever.

Anyway, I know that @Phyrnna has at least one hour-plus-long piano improv session. Not sure if there's anything longer or not.

Response to longest song on NG? 2016-10-06 12:57:50 (edited 2016-10-06 12:58:25)


Pretty sure Phyrnna uploaded the longest even though its just improv. I think she asked Tom for an upload limit extension.

My longest that was actually scored/written is 14:14 though its gotten 0B'd pretty hard since I last checked.

An Improv on Freedom is probably the longest song not counting podcasts, clocking in at exactly two hours.

holy shit this thread is old haha

but yea as far as electronic stuff goes it's hard to say. i've got a 10 minute trance thing and a 12 minute ambient/emo-noise thing on here somewhere but there's probably something longer, especially since they increased the file size limit for the audio portal (my uploads both had to be like 128kbps lol)


p.s. i am gay
