Description
1 song per round, vote who had the most pleasing songs, in your opinion.
Round 1
Usually I have opponents, in this, that I fear are more 'normal-taste' and who I mustn't underestimate the raw ability of knowing what people like.
Here, I have a very thoughtful opponent who probably analyses trends and music as deeply as I do, I look forward to the tough match and will structure my picks accordingly.
My first song is designed to be 'bad' in no way at all. It is an excellent all-rounder with many elements of good music (not just good electronic music) in it:
It is a hard-hitter statistically and terms of how recent it was a hit, it is something I predict would be on the selection of my opponent and chosen primarily to stop him being able to pick it, good luck. ;)
As always, you are encouraged to get hold of the Spotify Premium, YouTube Music HD version(s) of the song because it will highlight quality and sounds that you physically don't experience on the free YouTube video audio etc.
All art is at once surface and symbol.Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril.Those who read the symbol do so at their peril.It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.- Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
Following the words of Wilde, I urge the voters to simply enjoy the rhythmic and hopefully pleasant music and vote on whoever they believe presented the music which is most pleasant to their ears.
I thus won't flood you with any more words and leave you with my first song:
Round 2
Round 3
I love my trap music as much as I love you falling into my traps...
Good pick, obvious one though... Can you really outmanoeuvre me in the long run?
Round 4
Could use 'neffex - crown' and play a 'dangerous' game of power games but I know that when Bonaparte said 'never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake' that he didn't count on how dishonourable you end up looking and how you can use the shouting to your advantage.
Thusly, I time my bleating here:
THE SONG STATED IN CON'S ROUND 1 IS NOT THE SONG LINKED TO VIA URL. Con either concedes one of the two songs and must explicitly make it clear in the next Round, or he is chained to have one of his next 2 songs being the other.
If Con ignores this error, Con forfeits the debate because Con has broken the 1-song per Round rule via technically posting 2 songs in R1 that is very vague on which is the actual one intended and which is the mistake.
Con is chained to either have:
Alan Walker Style - My Heart
or the stated song in R1 as his song and must apologise for the error.
The art is all well and good, but words win debates, mi oponente. ;)
Just to clarify, the name of the song I posted in round 1 is incorrectly stated in the title of the video (perhaps to clickbait people), the most liked comment of the video states the original name of the song which is the name that I wrote in round 1. But just to prevent any further unfortunate misunderstandings, the song I pick in each round is always the song that is linked to, please feel free to completely disregard the title that it is given in my rounds and vote purely the quality of the song that the link leads to.
After boring the crowd with this formality this song should get you hyped again:
Round 5
Yes, this was the last song in my first Electronic Music Battle here. Yes, it was not the song that received most positive praise.
BUT, I am aware of what people here like and have compliled many things that won't even make sense to you as some of it is non-worded non-numerical in how i measure it (I 'feel the aura') and I am certain that this song is optimal to use.
Thank you for this Electronic Music Battle, RM.
My final song is one that is dedicated to my fellow riders and everyone who enjoys electro/dance music:
You guys got great taste in music
Cheers for the fun debate
Cheers for the vote my man, I appreciate the feedback.
I took a bit of a risk with my third and fourth song and it didn't really pay off, I've learnt a few lessons for my next music battle though. Glad you enjoyed Bad and Boujee
RM
No you still would have lost with a score of 3.7. The 8th best was a 10/10. To tie, the lowest you needed was a 5.1/10.
It's a bit improved version of No Rules by Duo Lipa. a better beat with tempo. it was that bad. I give No Rules a 1.3/10 because it is repetitive pop garbage
Well if you had given it 3.7 I'd be tied, clearly it was THAT bad.
its just my taste. it was too poppy and was ooh ahh, dua lipa "no rules," type beat(which i hate)
I am glad supa gave my #3 a 10/10 it was a rare find I had thanks to channels I'm subcribed to and came across it.
24-25 because you decided that a song is 2.7/10 alright then. Not ashamed of this loss, first time I went too non-pop so it's hard to tell with voters as I don't know who WILL NOT vote so I can't adapt to the taste of the majority of voters. At least I have confirmed how arbitrary this is and won't engage in this type of battle again.
FEEDBACK
RM: I would focus more on the actually beat and instrumentals versus the voice itself. It really caused me to deter my votes and rate yours lower
Pyscho: I would try to avoid remixes. You got very lucky that your Migos was good, but it is usually garbage and rates lower. also try to diversify your playlist. it is a lot of alan walker type music, and i personally am not a fan
Please state which songs scored which and perhaps even 'why' and then leave the physical vote.
I will be dropping a vote based off a rating system I created
I will give a song a rating out of 10, and I will position these 10 songs from most appealing to least appealing
Then I will assign points for the song based on my rankings.
1st-10 pts
2nd-9pts
3rd-8pts
4th-7pts
5th-6pts
6th-4pts
7th-3pts
8th-1pt
9th-1pt
10th-0pt
So let's say the order is
1st-RM- (9.4)-Song Rating
2nd- RM- 9
3rd- PB- 8.4
4th-PB- 8.3
5th-RM -8.2
6th-PB- 7.9
7th-PB- 7
8th-PB- 5
9th-RM- 4.3
10th-RM- 4
RM=26 and PB=23
Therefore RM wins
He didn’t moderate if. Your vote is still there.
"This is a troll/non standard debate so votes aren't moderated.." Then why did you moderate mine?

It's a phrase that is used to indicate that something is amusing. It's pretty popular on the internet and stands for "laughing my ass off", although it's usually more of a quiet chuckle
What does Lmao mean?
Lmao, cheers for the vote regardless
I wanted the badge for 15 votes in 24 hours.
Thanks for the vote Alec, hope you enjoyed the music
Cheers to everyone who is going to vote, we appreciate it
You, vote pls ;)
Good luck. Hope you guys vote (Ramshutu I know you'll vote, so no point pinging you xD)
Well, it gets very vague on what's just singing-pop and what's electronic. I admit there's some leeway there but make sure the beat is very obviously electronically edited etc and you're fine. On the other end of the spectrum, it becomes a matter of 'is this really music or just electronic sounds?' but that's not gonna please voters' ears anyway.
I think this debate should include all music.
what genres would you include under "elctronic music"?
bump
come battle me boys
