What counts as a banger?

A song that makes people move before they have decided whether they like it. Bangers prompts are about immediate physical effect, so the test is the first fifteen seconds rather than the whole track. "Song with the Hardest Beat Drop" and "Best Intro" are both really asking how fast a song can take a room.

How do you pick a banger nobody else will submit?

Go one step past the obvious. In any group of five people the three biggest party songs of the last decade are already taken, so the winning pick is usually the fourth one: familiar enough that half the room reacts, not so familiar that somebody else got there first. Recognition wins these rounds, but so does surprise.

Are bangers prompts good for parties?

They are the best theme for a room with a speaker and people standing up. Every submission is playable, nothing needs explaining, and the playback phase doubles as the music for the next ten minutes. Themes that reward close listening do the opposite: they need a room that is sitting down and paying attention.

Bangers prompts, answered

What are Bangers aux battle prompts?

Pure energy. The songs that go off (party starters, hype anthems, and tracks that make the whole room move). In an aux battle, Bangers prompts are the brief every player answers with a single song, and the room then votes on whose pick fits best.

What are some good Bangers prompts for an aux battle?

Three of the 217 on this page: "Song That Represents You", "Best Song for Getting Hyped Before a Game" and "Best Song to Blast at a Car Meet". A prompt works when it is broad enough that everyone has a song for it but specific enough that the picks are worth arguing about.

How many Bangers aux battle prompts are there?

217 Bangers prompts, part of a free library of 3,505 prompts across 16 themes. They are free to read, free to copy into a group chat, and free to play through on Aux Battles with no account and no download.

How do you play an aux battle with Bangers prompts?

Pick one Bangers prompt, say "Song That Represents You", and give every player the same brief. Each person submits one song from Spotify, YouTube or SoundCloud, the room plays the submissions back without revealing who picked what, and everyone rates them. The highest average score wins the round.
