Some might say I shouldn't be composing during my honeymoon, but what do they know anyway!

Getting in just under the wire. Reminds me of my school projects.

It's okay. That just means that @SPIRALi is the substitution to the substitution. SPIRALi, if you'd like to rejoin the competition, please confirm on this thread or via PM. You have 10.5 hours left to post a brand-new track here.

Also, since @MusicSashik and @Claycubed have proven less-than-responsive to my offer to have them rejoin the competition, I'm also inviting @MrMusterd and @Mauxus to take over seeds #22 and #29, respectively. With 10.5 hours left before the deadline, your seed numbers are not going to be as important to me as whether you've actually indicated interest in competing in the Group Stage.


I can't guarantee anything right now, but seeds #74-80, namely @Nixonic, @M1ndbreaker, @RedCocoa, @IndexatioN, @XCRIZGD, @Jakey-San, and @Amishpimp: you should know that, if the clock strikes midnight tonight on the East Coast of the U.S., there's an original track you've made in the last 3 weeks in this thread, and there's someone in the top 64 seeds whose track is missing, you also have a good chance of getting back into the NGADM. Please let me know if you have any questions.

By my count, we have 9 dubstep tracks among the top 64 finishers, and 38 that fit into electronica as a whole. That does seem like a lot, but based on my experience it's pretty representative of the Audio Portal as a whole. I assure you that the NGADM is not a pro-dubstep racket lol.
As someone who got in, 38 out of 64 electronica is a majority. Let that sink in for a few moments.

I know I got in but this is not the mix I have heard in past contests at all, is what I'm saying. This feels far from it. 🤔
As one of the "dubstep" tracks, I picked the closest thing they had. Artcore is basically orchestral soundtrack with bass music under it, and orchestra arrangements take priority over bass design, so it's more like 8, at most. If you want more examples of that sound, check out Codly.

Electronica has a lower bar for entry than a lot of other genres, at least for online communities where you present it by uploading it, as opposed to playing it live, so it only makes sense that it's more represented. I'm glad there's an audience for non-electronica music though, as someone that makes a lot of metal.


Hey im a metal boi too. I feel like there's very few of us here. However I did used to be the edm guy.

@TaintedLogic said that a space opened up so I'd like to submit "Summer Skies" for consideration. If too late, no worries, in that case please ignore.

Holy Moly! I was eliminated at first, but I read the reminder on the last day! Couldn't complete the track, so here it is as it is!

The midnight hour is upon us (on the east coast of the U.S. at least), which means the NGADM 2023 Group Stage submission phase is officially over! We have 55 submissions out of 64 slots, a pretty good turnout if you ask me.

 

Unfortunately, the following users have failed to submit something on time: @Nascene @ELEVENT 

@GalaxyTones @Wushyx @Aterr @Kitschy @ArtCowles @Lashmush @Kysertron. Fill-ins @Claycubed and @MrMusterd are also AWOL.

 

Results should be out sometime on August 26th. Exactly 16 competitors will advance to the tournament-style phase of the competition. I'll even make a bracket so you can see what your potential "path to victory" looks like. :)

 

But I'm getting ahead of myself. Before the single-elimination tournament starts, the judges have a lot of judging to do! @ADR3-N@Bosa@ConnorGrail@SplatterDash@TaintedLogic@TeraVex@WobWobRob, and @X3LL3N: you know what to do.

 

Best of luck, everyone! ^_^

Ah snap, I tried to check when the next date was, but if I'm too late I'm too late, I guess. Best of luck to everyone! c:
