Club Bizarre Volume 17! *.*

Welcome to the 17th edition of Club Bizarre. Following my success in the 70s and 80s contest (and the two people who finished above me being unavailable) I've dusted off the cobwebs to host a contest on BuzzJack for the first time in a few years.

After discussion with the mods this time we will be going back to contest #6 where there will be no set theme, giving a greater choice and hopefully great variety of entries - if you've been waiting on a song for a while until it's correctly fitted a theme then now is the time to send it!

As ever there are some rules:
- please make sure your entry is a Dance song, something which would typically be discussed in this forum
- don't send anything too well known. This contest is to showcase lesser known songs or artists.
- don't send anything that has been sent to previous editions of http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=206214, http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=211939 or http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=139865.
- the Dance forum moderators will check all entries to ensure they fit the above three rules, anything which doesn't will be vetoed and you'll be required to re-submit a different entry.
- the contest is anonymous. Please don't reveal which song you have sent, this will be revealed during the results.
- please confirm your entry using the below link
- the deadline for confirmations is Tuesday 12th October at 23:59 BST. The contest will open once all entries have been checked and will remain open for a period of around 2 weeks.

Looking forward to this, although the 70s and 80s contest was my favourite so far.

Posted by: lewistgreen 5th October 2021, 06:58 PM

Better get looking! I have no idea what to send at all

Posted by: lewistgreen 5th October 2021, 09:30 PM

Okay so I went with something I've been sitting on for a few months for BJSC but I think it'll shine here

Posted by: uhsting 5th October 2021, 09:31 PM

Was thinking of sending my next BJSC entry for a moment but I recall that I wanted to send this entry too for BJSC but it's a lot more related to dance so why not go for it?

Posted by: Cow Cow 6th October 2021, 12:11 AM

I think I've got something to send!

Posted by: Dobbo. 6th October 2021, 08:34 AM

Ooh this is gonna be a struggle with no theme actually, will have to get hunting thru my potentials playlists.

Posted by: addylita 6th October 2021, 03:37 PM

i don't recall how bad I did last no theme edition, but yeah it's always a struggle making the best decision lol.

Posted by: k👠th 6th October 2021, 03:47 PM

I'm struggling! I have a few I wanted to send to BJSC that all could be send here also

Posted by: awardinary 6th October 2021, 04:50 PM

We need kath to bring ha A game to this contest! Nothing less than amazing will do.

Posted by: Chez Wombat 6th October 2021, 05:00 PM

Sorry I couldn't host, September/October are always crazy for me and even more so now alongside moving house! </3 (Plus I couldn't possible top my classical theme last time x)

Will definitely enter though as I clearly have quite a lot of choice!

Posted by: King Rollo 6th October 2021, 05:16 PM

I didn't notice this appearing yesterday. I have a few dance music potentials which I will have another listen to.

Posted by: Bré 6th October 2021, 05:20 PM

Was definitely a surprise to see this popping up under RabbitFurCoat's name, completely forgot how well you did in the last one of these! Cool to have a new host anyhoo

I have another BJSC potential from a couple of months ago that I think would fit reasonably well for a Club Bizarre (the lack of theme helping with that ofc x) so I'm gonna confirm that for now in the likely case that I don't stumble across anything I want to send more - I found it around the same time as the song I sent to Unknown Pleasures, I wonder which results we will get first

Posted by: addylita 6th October 2021, 05:28 PM

confirmed

Posted by: RabbitFurCoat 6th October 2021, 06:54 PM

Oh it was quite fortunate, nowhere near the top 2 but happy to host - always used to enjoy it

6 entries in the first 24 hours, got a couple of potentials myself - was unsure whether one would really class as 'dance' but did then notice as I was listening on Spotify the act on a compilation with the title of a previous CB theme!

Posted by: photografdemon 6th October 2021, 06:57 PM

damn, I've got too freakin much to offer
I mean, should I play safe and go with an easy genre or play hard and go with something quite strange to understand?...hmm.
That's a question I should sleep with a couple o' nights.

Posted by: k👠th 6th October 2021, 07:29 PM

Kath confirmed! And it's not afro house or amapiano so should be amazing in Buzzjack opinion

Just have to decide between 4 minute edit or 7-8min original mix

Posted by: awardinary 6th October 2021, 08:41 PM

Thread now pinned for ease of access!

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th October 2021, 09:21 PM

The stress of trying to work out whether the song I had pinned for the next BJSC would do less awfully here!

Posted by: Rob S 8th October 2021, 10:37 PM

Might as well give this a go. Confirmed with something addictive that I came across last year.

Posted by: lewistgreen 10th October 2021, 03:41 PM

Just a couple of days left folks!

Posted by: RabbitFurCoat 10th October 2021, 04:22 PM

Up to 15 entrants so far

Posted by: Jade 10th October 2021, 04:22 PM

Oops thanks for the bump - will get on this!

Posted by: ✖ leww ✖ 10th October 2021, 04:27 PM

I'll get on this too.

Posted by: Doctor Blind 10th October 2021, 06:06 PM

I've got something exciting and intoxicating to enter that is perfect for the post-Covid return to the dance floor. Hope U enjoy. x

Posted by: Dobbo. 11th October 2021, 09:28 AM

Gone with something I've had on my potentials list (for any site-wide contest) for quite a few years now, its time!

Posted by: k👠th 11th October 2021, 02:05 PM

Sent a huge banger

Posted by: Doctor Blind 11th October 2021, 05:43 PM

!! Here for it.

Posted by: FrankLuck 11th October 2021, 07:08 PM

Wanted to submit the first thing that came to my mind (hehe), but ended up sending a BJSC potential.

Posted by: addylita 11th October 2021, 08:01 PM

looks like we will have over 20 entrants...amazing success

Posted by: lewistgreen 12th October 2021, 03:32 PM

Only a few hours left to get your entries in

Posted by: RabbitFurCoat 12th October 2021, 04:43 PM

I've 21 entrants so far and about to send a PM to the four people who've posted interest in this thread but not yet submitted (Jade, Leww, Wardy, Snake). I'll be sending the final list of songs to mods in the morning to veto so I guess I'd accept anything until about 07:30.

Posted by: dandy* 12th October 2021, 05:24 PM

I completely missed this - will try to find something I love to send...

Posted by: Jade 12th October 2021, 08:19 PM

Confirmed! Sorry for leaving it a bit late, I've had several headaches over the past couple of days so wading through dance music wasn't appealing to me very much during that time but hopefully this will be worth the wait

Posted by: dandy* 12th October 2021, 09:31 PM

Think I'm going to sit this one out after all - have looked but haven't come up with anything that feels right

Posted by: ✖ leww ✖ 13th October 2021, 07:49 AM

Submitted something!

Posted by: lewistgreen 13th October 2021, 08:55 AM

Just conferring with the others but we do have a veto sorry folks

Posted by: dan:G 13th October 2021, 09:41 AM

Veto


A-listed on Radio 1, currently in the UK top 100

Posted by: ✖ leww ✖ 13th October 2021, 12:56 PM

Fair!

Posted by: Bré 13th October 2021, 01:46 PM

'Talamanca' is a great tune but yeah a pretty clear-cut veto there!
