Fair fights. Raw talent.No algorithms. No gatekeepers.
SoundWars is Artteom’s revolutionary music competition — designed for fairness, discovery, and raw talent. No algorithms, no playlists controlled by corporations, no industry gatekeepers. Just artists, music, and the people who choose the future.
This competition puts every musician on an equal playing field, whether you're independent, underground, rising, or established.
Two artists are pitted head-to-head in the same category — and every round is different.
Fans and Founders Circle members decide who climbs the rankings — not an algorithm.
Across genres, across borders — the artist with the highest total votes becomes the SoundWars Champion.
How SoundWars Works
A global showdown built for discovery and fairness — with a format that stays unpredictable and brutally exciting.
10 Music Categories
Artists submit their tracks into one of ten global categories that span all genres. Every genre has space. Every voice counts.
Randomized Match-Ups
During the voting period, the system randomly puts two artists against each other in the same category. No two rounds are alike. No favoritism. No algorithm boosting.
Fan & Founders Circle Voting
Votes come from both fans and Founders Circle members. Each vote determines which artist moves forward in the rankings.
Top 10 Advance to the Finals
After voting, the top 10 artists with the most votes in each category move into the finals.
When genres collide, the world watches.
In the finals, all category borders disappear. Artists are matched at random — rock vs reggae, metal vs jazz, indie vs hip-hop — anything goes.
No genre protections. No comfort zones. Only impact.
Random pairings create moments you can’t script.
The artist with the highest total votes becomes the SOUNDWARS CHAMPION.
