Welcome to Quavo, Medhelnia. We'll be hosting the BJSC 96 confirmations and semi's, and our friends over in Suedonia will be hosting the final.
RULES YOU SHOULD FOLLOW: - don't be a cheap h0 and send something that's already been http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=104463 before, OR something that's an obvious http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=196914, it'll save the mods a lot of time (eg. plz don't go sending the Bieber remix of Despacito, it probably won't get thru the veto x)
-
- don't send any any of the top 3 artists from the last contest! so that's Bleachers, Stockholm Noir and Me & My.
-
- also (if there were any), last months non-voters can't enter. you know who you are (because I most certainly don't know who you are x)
-
- don't send the artist you sent last month!
don't forget to attach an MP3 file to your Google Form entry, and CLICK THE BIG PICTURE TO GO TO THE FORM
plz send a bop

Oh fantastic, there's a BJSC again. I am going to take a little while before I decide I think, depends whether I feel like going down in flames this month or whether I want to have a go at it.
I have a lot of choice and nothing DESPERATELY standing out, maybe I'll go with my original plan, maybe I won't. I'll get back to you.

Good question, as a group we've decided to use all of our extra time to creating http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=198200 instead of updating those stats when the ultimate aim is to get rid of them anyway. The bulk of the work for stage one of this is complete, so I think you can expect to see something publicly within a few weeks!

I've already changed too lmao. I thought I could resist sending this Punjabi song that's bound to flop but I can't. It has to be done!
Posted by: gooddelta 26th June 2017, 08:31 PM
Confirmed a summery dance track complete with copious amounts of sax, percussion and a mild tropical vibe (which actually complements the track rather than sounding shoehorned in or like a bandwagon jumper).
Really intrigued to see how this will do, I've never sent anything in this language/from this country before *.*

Posted by: nfjabf 26th June 2017, 08:48 PM
Going to make a comeback this month now exams are over. Feels like it's been a while since I've discovered loads of great new tracks so I have high hopes
Side note, Open Season - Josef Salvat got me back into the BJSC vibe today when I listened to it on Spotify, what a track!
Posted by: Suedehead2 26th June 2017, 08:50 PM
Suedeonia are aiming for new heights of quirkiness this month
Posted by: Mart!n 26th June 2017, 08:57 PM

Posted by: Sir Celestial 26th June 2017, 09:44 PM
Confirmed. Dark Electronic Minimal R&B. Fully expecting a DNQ again but my purpose with this contest is to no longer appeal for the masses but instead (hopefully) allow someone to discover and fall in love with the artists I submit.

An 80's inspired, pop bop. Think Olly Murs - Kiss Me/Brandon Flowers - Lonely Town/Carly Rae - Emotion era... ish.
(I say "ish" due to being compared to those on Buzzjack will amass so much hype and I expect people may actually be disappointed, despite me thinking they actually would fit in amongst those tracks lmao.)

Posted by: Silas 30th June 2017, 08:13 PM
Hai!!!! Welcomes!
We have no themes to our contests, just enter something relatively unknown and you're champion. Yes confirmed tracks are secret until the semifinals start.
Any q's you have either drop a mod a line or ask in here and a mod or someone will answer away

If you'd be able to listen to all the songs in the couple of days before you leave you can just send in a ranking of all the songs which can then be used for your final votes!

Which one of those registered countries is Spadam's?

His is called TRIANGLEDONIA but I remember him saying he had no plans to rejoin the contest.

Yes, but check the Shoutbox, he said within the last few hours that he has signed up.

He was just saying he already has a BJSC country he stopped entering at the end of the last year and has said that he's not planning to return.

If he returned let's just say you'd hope you be high up the running order in your Semi!
You & Me though, what a final entry
Posted by: Logged in as: 1st July 2017, 06:52 PM
All this peer pressure though :/
I've considered returning but I still feel a lil guilty about how I left my last contest and tbh I don't think I really deserve to enter future competitions after what I did
(yas Dobbo finally some appreciation for that gem )
Posted by: Silas 1st July 2017, 07:26 PM
We hold no grudges. Countries are free and clear to return whenever they like regardless of what happened in your last contest.
Unless you're banned obvi

Literally have no memory of whatever it was you did and I'm not going to look it up so come right back on in if that's your only worry.
Posted by: awardinary 1st July 2017, 08:00 PM
Yeah I too didn't even know whatever this historic issue was, but by the looks of the responses so far everyone wants you back!
Peer pressure can be a good thing!
Posted by: LexC 1st July 2017, 08:53 PM
If one of the mods could send me the latest version of the provisional list so I can get in the rest of my pre-Holiday listening then that would be greatly appreciated! (I tried Jahq but he seems to be MIA at present)

Spadz literally voted for the first ten songs in the semi final in the order they appeared as he didn't listen to his semi but didn't want the deduction. He subsequently got caught out and received a deduction and then didn't vote in the final.
We'll all forgive that though but I understand if you don't want to rejoin as it is quite time consuming.
Posted by: Mack 1st July 2017, 10:33 PM
Confirmed. Was there still enough time?
Posted by: Dobbo 1st July 2017, 10:35 PM
Looking forward to this commencing, seems like an AGE since the last contest (I am aware BJFest took place last month), probs had something to do with DNQing the previous contest.

Semi's will be up this evening! Just waiting for a re-confirmation and the list SHOULD be final, unless of any vetoes.

Gutted.
Would have been my favourite entry of mine for ages. I hope everyone still listens to it regardless.
Posted by: King Rollo 2nd July 2017, 06:26 PM
Listening to Thinking Of A Place now. Is that yours Dandy? Very good. Great to see somenone enter an 11 minute song. Shame it's vetoed. I didn't know it.
Posted by: dandy* 2nd July 2017, 06:40 PM
Nah... mine was the St Vincent track, although frankly both vetoed tracks are pretty great.
Posted by: Addy K!ng 2nd July 2017, 06:54 PM
11 minute song could be Awardinary
Posted by: danG 2nd July 2017, 06:56 PM
Wardy did say he was going to send an 11 minute track, I'll DM him as he's not on Buzzjack at the moment.
Posted by: dandy* 2nd July 2017, 06:57 PM
I've resubmitted btw... you may want to double check that one too though as I thought St V was the lesser of the two evils!
Posted by: awardinary 2nd July 2017, 07:03 PM
I did indeed send an 11 minute song, but it's not been vetoed (yet).
Posted by: danG 2nd July 2017, 07:03 PM
Who do we need to hassle to re-confirm then?
Posted by: Bré 2nd July 2017, 07:16 PM
Listening to all the vetoes of the month while we wait cos why not...
BLACKPINK's song is substantially better than 'Playing With Fire', still not really my thing but passable by K-Pop standards Christie & The Dream Beats is a good pop track, would have done really well probably The War On Drugs is an absolute beaut would have been a lock for high points from me, a shame to see that one not making it through (and imagine if we had a contest with 2 different 11 minute entries!! interested to see what direction Zanmatony have gone in this time ~) St. Vincent is not bad but sounds like something I wouldn't vote for, a bit like one of Syndare's more middling entries (sorry Dandy ;o)
Posted by: SevenSees 2nd July 2017, 07:24 PM
'New York' is really good, couldn't we have just left it in (same applies to Christie + the Dream Beats)

It'll have to be signed off by the mods too so the later you leave it the less likely there is to be a majority of us hanging about to give it the nod

You vetoed a 5 year old track that has zero relevance outside the Portuguese speaking world, seriously?
Posted by: Ryan. 2nd July 2017, 08:58 PM
We haven't vetoed any more tracks, mdh must have misread our spreadsheet!
Posted by: Ryan. 2nd July 2017, 09:02 PM
We're so used to having repeat hosts in recent months that we haven't bothered to give rundowns of how the spreadsheet votes turn into actual veto notifications, so that's our fault. But for future reference, while we put our votes on the spreadsheet so we can keep track of where we are at, a veto never becomes official until one of us PMs the host with the breakdown.
In this instance I think our votes from Harve's previous entry weren't removed immediately, as it has to be done manually, so mdh mistakenly took those votes as referring to his latest entry.
Innocent mistakes all round and all solved!
