Greetings one and all from Persephonia as we take part in hosting Buzzjackfestivalen for the first time ~

We have 44 entries in this edition of our semi-regular short song extravaganza which means 11 of you have been lucky enough to be drawn for a live performance here at the New Persephonia City Apollo for Heat 1. The other three heats should be dropped in short order by our fellow moderating nations.

Each participating country must vote only in their own heat, and no voting for yourself as per usual. Due to the smaller field of songs than a usual BJSC semi-final we shall be using a modified version of the points system - when you've decided on your votes, PM them to me in the following format:

12 points (to your favourite)
10 points
8 points
6 points
4 points
2 points (to your 6th favourite)

The top two songs from the heat will win a ticket straight to the grand final, while the songs placing 3rd through 5th will have a chance to also make the final if they can make it through the Andra Chansen round. Unfortunately the countries below 5th place have their journeys end there but they remain welcome and encouraged to vote in the Andra Chansen and final rounds.

Please note that the deadline for voting is also shorter than a usual contest - there is, after all, only about a half hour of material to listen through! - so according to our behind the scenes planning thread the deadline is set at 23:59 BST on Saturday 12th June, giving you a little over 4 days, I hope that is sufficient x

Let the heat commence!

01 République d'Áskorza // Luca Hänni & Sunlike Brothers - Durch Die Nacht
02 Jupiterdonia // Armin Van Buuren vs. Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Not Giving Up On Love
03 Mulgracia // Smash Into Pieces - Bangarang
04 Altyr Muunilinst // Dear Sara - Something You Should Know
05 Sovarasma // FLAVIA - Ripe
06 Zaminton // Sun Heat - You're Gonna Love It
07 Quintessa // DOROFEEVA - gorit
08 Rolloland // Bow Wow Wow - I Want Candy
09 Aesthetica // Lil Mariko - Hi, I'm A Slut
10 Harmonica // Rye Rye - New Thing
11 Kathaldazia // AmyElle - Feel The Heat

Votes received so far (11):
Aesthetica
Altyr Muunilinst
Harmonica
Jupiterdonia
Kathaldazia
Mulgracia
Quintessa
République d'Áskorza
Rolloland
Sovarasma
Zaminton

Not quite the draw I was hoping for! But I’m so excited to send this song all the same.

Is it one heat at a time? Like, will heat 2 start after results of heat 1 or will all four heats be run simultaneously?

Never mind. laugh.gif

As this is spin off, of sorts, the standard veto framework does not apply.



QUOTE(Quarantilas @ Jun 6 2021, 09:18 AM) *
The song itself is pretty poor and charted at 165 in the UK (8 in NL and 26 in BE). It’s also a decade old. I think the name recognition is higher than the song recognition so on balance I’m inclined to allow it to stay personally

SyncTube/Discord sesh for this tomorrow night? And for the other 3 heats but I won't ask in every thread lol, it is 44 entries but still shorter than a regular BJSC semi-final for obvious reasons
