Welcome to Carellis, Persephonia for the semi-final stage of BJSC 89
Please PM your votes to me (http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=8300) using the 12 points voting system (12 points to your favourite, then 10/8/7/6/5/4/3/2/1 down to your 10th favourite, and if I need to remind anyone, you cannot vote for your own song). Once you have voted you'll receive a shiny decastar next to your song.
yes I am just using the same format here as in the instrumental spinoff because I am lazy
The deadline for your votes to be guaranteed accepted and with no deductions is 23:59 BST on Monday the 10th of October, 2016 (sorry it's a bit of a short voting period but at least that covers the whole weekend!) and we will then transition back over to Jadakissnia who will announce the results the following evening. If you fail to submit votes you will be subject to a 33% deduction. Would really appreciate it if everyone could stick to this deadline! However, I will probably accept any slightly late votes up to a point on Tuesday before results start (to be confirmed later~), and a 15% deduction will be applied to any such countries.
The following 2 songs progress straight to the final following their countries' top 2 successes in BJSC 88 - don't include them in your semi-final votes but please do familiarise yourself with them!
AUTO-QUALIFIERS
AQ. N DNTN // http://soundcloud.com/nadiatehran/cash-flow
AQ. #00274E // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZI0lYZnRGw
N DNTN will vote in semi-final 1 and #00274E will vote in semi-final 2 (this is not a permanent change to the usual AQs voting in both semis, blame Chris' holidaying x). Everyone else will vote only in their own semi-final as usual. Please locate yourself in one of the next two posts to determine which semi-final you're voting in.
33 songs feature in each semi-final and only the top 20 from each will progress to the grand final in Nadallius - and it's up to you to decide which 40 songs will join N DNTN and #00274E, so get voting! ;o

RECAP VIDEO (made by Jade)
HYPED!
(Btw it was FLYNNONDA who sent the song that was sort of a potential for me, but sounds nothing like something that I'd enter ;o Please let them qualify this time semi 1 people x)
OH
I hope everything is in order there. x
COMING SOON
- mp3 packs will be uploaded ASAP
- Jade has put together some very swanky YouTube recaps which will be arriving today at some point
Also welcome to 6 more new countryballs!
- redesigned #00274E, I tried
- Brechtoria
- Buzzjack Mountain, again I tried
- Summericia
- redesigned Yehesi
- Zanmatony (debuting nation this month! )
PS did you intentionally drop the 'Federal Republic of' Phil? It was absent in the spreadsheet. I will reinstate it if you want. x
PPS Jade told me that Pavel is uploading his song somewhere at some point, until then have to make do with a slightly less than ideal streaming link (the song is available on Spotify though)
PPPS New Lexico's video was taken down from YouTube and Cor Lupus' is not available in the UK so I have changed their links, hope the new ones are fine! I also switched Ultraviolenceland's as an official audio was uploaded 2 days ago ~
MY
GOD
Omggg. I'm pretty sure that's a brilliant semi. Hope my entry goes down well.
💕
OMG OLIVER I ALMOST WENT FOR THAT SONG
This is a REALLY good semi for me!
Early syndare and florina hype as both of those were potentials of mine
Also yaaaaas kero kero bonito
Can I wish you would have sent "Problems Problems" </3
Only really heard of Francis and some I've seen in personal charts but well hyped to have a good ol' listen
Yes Nick slay with that opener
Apologies for the slightly shorter voting period compared to usual. I proposed the dates I wanted because Tuesday is one day I know I can definitely commit to with preparing and presenting results! Just unfortunate that things got delayed. Sorry for any inconvenience but I hope this will be okay, it does still cover the whole weekend.
Listening to Snake's track right now - and OH MY LORD IT'S BRILLIANT. Amazing stuff.
Greenfroze!!! That song was on my potential long list. Probably would have never got round to sending it so yayy hype
Spent the past week preparing these to help with the voting process, so hopefully they'll come in handy:
YOUTUBE RECAPS
SEMI 1
SEMI 2
(Apologies if some of the titles are different to how they appear in the opening post (Espen's song for instance) - I made these using the titles submitted by everyone, before Bray had corrected ones that needed fixing.)
STANNING those recaps Jade more Jadaphonia hosted contests tbh
Vote 4 the Dutch Dua Lipa guys xxxx
I SEE ROCK
Aeroche and Taahino hype
Omg my name change to match me current namr qctually went through!!
Hype for FSR Rontvia, D'yermak'er, Mulgracia & Bellamia as I've already heard them I'd say all from an early standpoint have a chance of doing really well too.
Looking forward to getting stuck in with the rest of these though *.*
Argh why can I never be in a semi with Aelandor, I always want to support them. This especially SHOULD be qualifying (and even contending!) if there's any justice, it sounds awesome.
Countryballs look amazing as always, no idea what's good for my song but excited for y'all to hear it (and complain about it at the plug session, it's the longest I've ever sent )
Thank you!
Math sending Lorn ...it was on my list for forever

(sorry doing this rly quickly before dinner)
Only (knowingly) heard two of the other songs in this contest prior to this thread opening which might be the least ever (and both of them aren't in my semi). I'm really interested to see how 'Dance The Way I Feel' is going to do, as I posted in mdh's thread I nearly sent that to BJSC myself 2 years ago but ultimately decided not to as I thought it was a bit too uninspired (although I think it'll probably still be a discovery for most people), I feel like it sounds like a big hit! Although I won't cry too much if it bombs as that means I may have been saved from that The only other one I've heard is 'Better Life' which is also pretty great, yess for more Persephonia recycling (although KOTA originally belonged to Chez in Unknown Pleasures to be fair lol)
Excited for this contest. x
OMG Botanikka wins (again)
Omg that semi is awful for me, literally all the pop fans and most people I think that'd like it are in the other semi!!
Hopefully I can somehow Q but I think my streak may be coming to an end!
just took a quick look through but i already see several i know. very nice to see girli, odesza (even though it's the same artists and featured artist as the song i sent a year ago, cheap hoe klum), and RED VELVET!!
Interesting cover of ILOVEMAKONNEN's 'Tuesday' from N-Lazone. Sounds quite different from the original.
and not trying to stress Brade but any idea when we will have plug session, because I have time to throw one right now
Maybe just maybe AUTOBAHN could be a qualifier into the final for us.
Countryballs + Youtube recaps?? You guys are spoiling us <3
A lot of recycles lol (I thought for a minute Florina recycled their artist from last month, but apparently it's actually the group this time that's Echos ), seems I wasn't the only one to get that idea this month :x I've kinda been stanning KOTA since they first debuted and I even sent them to Unknown Pleasures with their first release, ofc. their next song was entered here and finished 2nd, Bre stealing my thunder (), and then they went quiet for years and now they've reappeared so I can finally send them here yay! Not QUITE as good as the other two, but basically as wonderfully apocalyptic and sinister as them (and probably the most 'urban' entry I've ever sent ;o).
I also need to vote in Nuggets lmao. Too many contests going on at once!!1
Will slot in the 3 plug sessions at some point in the next few days. (delaying the Instrumentals one again lmao (maybe tomorrow??), someone else can run one of those at some point if I continue flopping and delaying it tho)
I'll run one tonight if that's ok? a few of us in plug want it now lol
-x-
https://plug.dj/thermos-bjsc-room
listen to BJSC Instrumentals spin-off. Starting in a few mins
Oh ok then. Well that takes that off the list of things I need to do
Omfg Lorn yassssssss
Deerhunter tho such a cheap hoe
N DNTN have a pretty incredible chance of doing the double i think
OMG... Lorn Acid Rain, one of my potentials from way back, mind you eventually I got bored with it after a few listens
Kylienips hype please, Popeye is featured I'm not joking
I also know Princess Chelsea Cigarette Dust by Singerpurear, I was contemplating that track for UP at some point in the past.
Omg, When Life Is Grey *.* Yass Bhangra, I included that song on my BuzzJack CD Swap a few years ago!
Horrendous semi for me
Massive Harmonica hype, fabulous entry
Also hyping Lomaja and Unovia *.*
Yay one hype from Math!!! Please support us and vote in time if you can!
i'm devastated i can't give deerhunter my 18, one of my fav ever songs
Oh they're not even in my semi
Who is N-Lazone? Amazing opener and great song! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
me hype
I will try to get the mp3 packs for this uploaded tomorrow evening!
plug.dj sessions for the semis will be on Saturday and Sunday at currently undetermined times. x
Which way round? Only asking because I'm not sure if I can be there for Saturday but probably can for Sunday.
ETA: Might be able to be there for Saturday if it's an afternoon session or a late sesh, just might be out early evening.
Yay for sessions on weekends...I just hope they start 6ish or even better if earlier
Yay for weekend sesh, today wouldn't have been good for me + fingers crossed for afternoon instead of late evening.
I've only heard the recaps so far (great job, btw!) and based on those it seems to be a really good edition!
I'm away for the weekend getting crunk and drunk so I won't be there sadly dont miss me too much kids
Also getting turnt this weekend, early girli hype xo
#DrunkTitti
I disagree
I'll be here for my semifinal if I'm back in Manchester in time
Think the sessions are going to be at 5pm for both tomorrow and Sunday, will let you guys know if any changes arise before then!
Going to need to make sure I am actually awake by 5pm for these sessions lamfoo
Having my listen through now - excited
ANONYMOUS COMMENTS~
- That's the most insane drop I've heard all year Stunning!
- I'm getting SAIL vibes from this.
- Sounds like a 2014 Avicii release.
- minimalist drops ftw
- YASS. I hope you qualify.
- this is absolutely vile
- Ooh this is lovely
- Is it possible to sound any more idiotic?
- m a s s i v e t u n e
- I feel like I'm walking through a small African village.
- Another insane drop!
- I remember this
AVERAGE - 78.175
Really good semi - I'm pretty sure I'll DNQ now but oh well, there's a lot to root for.
OH GOD
Hopefully mine is the insane drop.
oops I spelt tease incorrectly
but tbh I get Sail teas (without the e) from my entry too
Hey Brade are there mp3 packs up yet or am I being a silly bean and just can't find them?
And the Spotify playlist plz (hi Notfurlong <3)
The mp3s aren't up yet but they will be this evening / tonight / in the early hours of tomorrow morning.
Randy has posted the Spotify playlists already though! I will add the links to those to the semi posts (will put together a couple of YouTube playlists as well though they will be missing FKAFKAFKA and I think one other song).
damn I'm late shift the next two days and wont be home until like 9pm, the listen throughs will be over by then oops
havent heard the full versions yet, hopin to listen to mp3/cd in the car on sunday, but on the recap preview snippets The Usual Suspects (for Singerpurear) mostly stand out, plus a few not always in the points. The one I already love to win though, I'm hyping Cobi. Fab record.
Putting together the mp3 packs now and Rich's song link has expired again, oops :') this happened in the spinoff as well.
edit: think I'm gonna have to delay the arrival of mp3 packs until tomorrow (I will finish them off as soon as I get up), sorryyyy for being a bit of a flop
Btw do you guys know what I'm on about when I mean the track from semi 2 sounds like Sail?
no bc i've not heard that semi but tbh idk why you're keeping it a secret as to what song you're on about because saying a song sounds like something else isn't giving an indication as to whether you're voting for it or not????
Plug.DJ lostening sessions occurring when I can actually make them I'll be there ~
So I voted, and I have to say my usual favs have delivered as always
BJSC Semi 1 listening session shall be here in about an hour: https://plug.dj/bjsc-89 though do feel free to join beforehand if you wish~
So yeah we should be looking at a 5pm start and will be done before X Factor!
Yes Jade thanks for hosting this
Uploading the mp3 packs now, if Zippyshare will allow... x
ZIPPYSHARE DID NOT ALLOW
Luckily MediaFire seemed to work so the mp3 packs are here! *prays these actually work*

BJSC Semi 1 Recap ( ) | 8 | 0 | 8
I think this is the first time this entire year I actually got a positive response at one of these sessions! Tbh it took me a few listens to properly get into my song myself so I certainly wasn't really expecting it to go down that well with people (mostly) hearing it for the first time. But... yay! x
There were parts of this semi that were a bit bland but overall quite a good one I think (and there was a run of REALLY good songs in the latter half ) - looking forward to hearing the other semi then as I have heard from trustworthy people that it's much better! ;o Annoyingly come out with 11 songs that I want to vote for, will try and fit a second listen in before finalising my votes.
Just listening to the ones I missed and Flynnonda + Cor Lupus are TUNES, would've wooted them for sure. (ETA: Beaverskandonia's song sounds pretty awesome as well, I missed a great run it seems.)
Really happy with the reaction to mine, feeling good about this one.
Thanks Jade for hosting this
Some amazing songs which I would love to see in final...who thought I like so much guitars
Ah damn I had Maan as a potential. Never mind.
Oooh a good start, sorry I couldn't be there, been moving house today, but I did listen to all of the songs on my travels so I shall aim to vote tomorrow.
Now added the YouTube playlists to the top of the semi posts! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5ssvC1pOpu-7Cmkz_3845ka9p6TdPBEl / https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5ssvC1pOpu_Wwf3o3nxpZNL5_0nKILto
Tinnmark/Desbuanda (SF1) and FKA FKA FKA π (SF2) are not on YouTube so sadly not featured above! Managed to find what I hope are suitable uploads of N DNTN, New Lexico, Syndare and Bignia-Zaragovina's songs though ~
(while putting these together I found that Oslol's entry now has an official video - have swapped this into the SF1 post - and also that Bøtanikkä's song has an official video as well but this is a slightly shorter version of the song so I shall leave it as the audio version unless you want me to change it Addy? x)
((I have also uploaded FKA FKA FKA π's song onto SoundCloud so it can be included in tomorrow's plug session, it seems to have let me upload it without it being immediately taken down!))
Only 48 more hours to vote and I've thus far received a total of 8 votes out of 68... I hope a good chunk of the remainder are going to come in tomorrow!
yehesi's song is like if dua lipa did hair by little mix
The deadline is creeping up too quickly :'( have my chart to do tomorrow but might squeeze in votes as well or next day.
Yeah it's the Cobi track, I wanted to see if I was the only one that got the vibes.
oh god didn't realise how soon it was, I'll either get my votes done tomorrow night or Monday afternoon
This deadline really does seem to have come very close very quickly even considering the voting period being fairly short anyway - feels like the semis only went up yesterday
At least into the double figures of votes now with Aeroche and Summericia votes arriving
Bre, please keep as it is...that music video is horrendous and it really doesn't do the justice to the song...so better just stare at the cover lol. And the fact that video has shorter version makes it even worst.
Will do!
Thank you!!!
OMG voting on this was painful...and I thought semi 1 was not that strong
I wanted to vote for 6 more songs/countries...sorry
Wow Medhelnia's song is a throwback, haven't heard that in YEARS!
Thanks for uploading my song on sc miss thing ❤️

Voted, only realy the one standout for me in this semi.
Semi 2 session beginning here in 45 minutes: https://plug.dj/bjsc-89/
Just about found enough time to vote in this... I even felt the need to include apologies this time as there were a few good ones that I just didn't have room to point.
borted
not exactly the rapturous reception I was hoping for...
just finalising my votes now. two songs WAY ahead of the pack

les botes sont ~
Votes sent! My top 4 in particular are outstanding this month.
Yasss much bigger reaction to Genevieve than I expected *.*
Distributed voting reminders. A day and a few hours to go to get 46 more votes in! (well, 45 plus myself)
VOTED
SO MUCH GUITAR
Voted~ Wasn't as strong a semi as I hoped, but had a very solid set of votes which there wasn't much between at all!
Guess I'll be cheering on the likes of Kero Kero Bonito and Dan Deacon from the sidelines (assuming they do make it to the final)
Also make sure to pick up KKB's new album on October 21st and become a part of the BONITO GENERATION~!
Finally found some time to vote and the wifi on my laptop isn't working
AND I'VE VOTED
Voting tomorrow afternoon/evening, sorry Bré I want to get another listen in. The deadline crept up so fast.
Voted, and I think this might be my last semi for a good while I struggled to find more than about 5 songs I wanted to vote for and even then my top 2 feel more like they'd be 5 or 6pts ish any other month. I feel so out of touch with BJSC with the amount of times this year or so I've proclaimed a semi to be one of the worst I've ever been in!
I hope I can vote. Have been really busy all last week doing the moving to another town preparations, the actual moving itself and there's no internet in the apartment I am now renting so oops I guess it depends on whether I can get it working today. And I am off to Moscow (once again praying I won't get a stalked + killed package from AlexRange) at like 4pm so if I've not voted before that time I sadly won't be doing so at all. 🙊
You can do it Pavel, otherwise you'll disappoint your fans
Why are all 'drops' in 2016 now an exercise to create the most annoying collection of sounds that completely ruin a great song? Part of me misses the generic drops that all sounded the same.
Just sent my votes! That was more difficult than expected, I had around 20 songs I wanted to give points to.
boted
Votes in. That was a very nice semi, wasn't anything I really object to at the moment and I did find a great top 10. I fear a lot of the songs that just missed my votes aren't going to qualify though which would be a shame.
Just voted and I feel like I've got a VERY varied Top 10! It does feel very, very, very wrong when I look at who I've given my top points to though but you've got to vote on the song and not the country!
Voted!
The dream of a 0 pointer continues to be but a dream. Everyone has now received points! x
5 hours left to vote and avoid deductions ;o
My expectations are now reached
Will vote soon, but they will be extremely rushed, sorry.
Voted!
Niceland to pull a Medhelnia for BJSC 90
Doing my final speed listen and when writing in Cody's country into my rankings I accidentally spelt it as 'Cor Lupiss'. I thought it was essential that I shared this information with y'all.
I'll send my votes in shortly s0ray!
OMFG SOMEONE SENT STANGA, MY POTENSH FOR NEXT MONTH AND MY SECOND POTENSH FOR THIS MONTH!!
CHEAP BETCH OO THE FANNY STOLE ME THAT?!
Gonna check the odds and if it's HIGH I'm gonna blow a FUUUSE!!!
Already Cody beat me to Higher, if this wins OMG Beaver MELTDOWN!!!!
OMFG IT'S HIGH AND MUCH HIGHER THAN MINE!!!
ARGHHH!!!
IT IS SIMILAR TO BANG LE DECKS WHICH IS WHY I WAS GONNA SEND IT!!!
THAT WAS THE ONE I HINTED AT, SOUNDING LIKE BANG LE DECKS, IN T SHOOTBOX!!!
RAAAGE!!
#NOTAMUSED!!!
Voted. My top 2 are absolutely stunning, but I didn't find it to be a particularly strong semi. Been reading good things about semi 2 though
I've casted my votes!
Stanga was my second choice too actually but didn't think it would do very well oops!!!
Anyway just about to vote, sending hype towards Land of DW again & Seyetana.
Ðøßßø you were somewhere in my Top 3!
Oops!
I didn't steal Stanga from anyone lol...it was on my national thread as potential.
P.S.
Dobbo, i really found out later after I confirmed that you chart Stanga.
About to lock in my own votes - shuffled them around quite a bit from my original listen.
7 voters to go in semi 1 and 3 in semi 2 - guessing we won't be getting any FKAFKAFKA votes on time now :'( but hopefully a full house otherwise? (Math I've seen you lurking, don't let me down)
Pavel/anyone else who may miss this deadline you have until 3pm BST tomorrow to have late votes counted (with a 15% deduction).
Indeed, despite my (usually successful) stolen pottashes, I gave them high points so you need to do the same, BEAV
mdh I see you lurking too
Clear your inbox pls. (and vote in Instrumentals, deadline tomorrow xx)
oh yeah I will vote in instrumentals tomorrow evening 100% but I voted for semi 2 on Friday
Voting within the next 20 minutes!
inbox officially clearrreeedd.
Yes I have your votes for this mdh don't worry!
Sent!
Ffs this went by fast, thank the lord for the recaps
Vøted!
voted~
where is my hype
If "Undone" wins I might cry because I had that on my shortlist for next month
Since Cadelicia isn't pulling a Cadelicia anymore I think I might be taking that spot
Only Bre knows it all!!!
The Federal Republic has voted!
Got it in with a minute to spare on mine! I was about to send the votes on my computer but then it died and I realized I had left the charger at my grandmothers so I had to do it on my iPad will send them in a neater format whenever you need them!
I need you to resend them anyway cos you had two 5s x
(please delete some PMs lmao)
Deadline has passed! Full house in semi-final 1 (once Math's votes are clarified - I won't give a deduction unless you just disappear without correcting them now lol), but no votes received yet from FKA FKA FKA π and Skall unforch! 15 more hours for you two to salvage 18% of your points. x
EDIT: Math's votes sorted.
Uh I just got back from the library. Sorry but consumption behaviour of lower-middle class women in turn-of-the-20th-century Paris > BJSC in this instance.
I don't know why I'm taking this course either.
That's the first time all year that I've missed a deadline I think. I'll get my votes in right away x
How 'right away' is right away? Don't know whether to stay up for them or not. x
They will be waiting for you in the morning pal.
(Y)
MrSuicideSheep to 2016 is as MajesticCasual to 2013.
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?!
Omg 3 times really?!!!
Sorry folks.
(I did stay up for Harve's votes anyway)
Pavel you still have 12 and a half hours if ur out there ~
Late votes deadline has passed now so the results are finalised - Skall will receive a 15% deduction and FKA FKA FKA π a 33% deduction. Poor hens.
And with that Persephonia's hosting duties are done x All international delegations please board the Bradestar underwater railway line headed for Nadallius for the semi-final results later this evening
(our hosting duties do continue over in the spinoff forum though - insert additional plug for remaining 17 voters in the Instrumentals spinoff. x)
woohoo can't wait for semi results...at what time they will start Bre?
Results should be coming at 8pm 8:30pm!
