Probably Spitfire and Take Me To Church, but the latter became so huge that I almost think of it as a big pop song these days. It felt very different for me at the time though. Possibly Shut Up + Dance too but I've always loved a huge chorus, regardless of the genre.
I try to switch things up often but to be fair most of my entries are just from various pop or dance sub-genres. |

QUOTE(Izzletoe @ Dec 9 2015, 11:39 PM)  More shoegazey stuff like 'Moving Still' please Persephonia I'd like to send an entry like that again (as 'Moving Still' is among my favourites of my own entries) but I rarely come across such songs that hold my attention at all! Closest I came to sending a similar song since then was MYTHHS 'Elements', I did eventually send that to Nuggets though of course. |

I don't think Ashton has really varied from it's sound. I think the only real difference from when this first started is the language of the songs! 7 years ago I would never have sent an entire year's worth of foreign language entries. I just didn't listen to any! Now some of my favourite songs aren't sung in English.

I wouldn't say I really had a specific sound even if some entries do stand out to me. I just like to send whatever, regardless of genre.

I went through old threads here and came across this
QUOTE(CodySleighBell-y @ Dec 9 2015, 03:29 PM) Probably Wave Racer considering that's the least anthemic out of the seven that I've sent so far I still stand by this, although I think I’ve gravitated towards a specific sound now that I’ve had 50+ entries on the table. So I think I would add:It does mean I've really toyed with different genres tho Snow Tha Product - Nuestra Cancion Kacy Hill - Hard To Love Aesthetic Perfection/Mr. Kitty - LAX Visions Of Atlantis - The Deep & The Dark We’ll see where the chips fall I guess |

I'd say the most I've deviated from the Danæviia brand recently would be 'Overkill' from last year which is more heavy than I would usually go for (being metal-inspired which I didn't expect a Danæviia entry ever would be) - and I suppose my synthpop entry 'Spaces' from earlier this year which both ended up flopping.

Idk, I've sent enough hip hop/R&B in addition to the electronic comfort zone such that the former two can't really count as a massive divergence.
Perhaps this is a bit different to most entries of mine, but that's not because this kind of music doesn't appeal to me - more because you guys are so on top of artists like Rina and I rarely discover pure pop early enough to make inspired, veto-compliant entries! And these may not be recognised as different because I know my entries are universally unappealing to some - that is to say I'm not sure if people who dislike both alt electronica and alt rock bother distinguishing between the two in the same way that I don't care about the difference between grunge and black metal - but I rarely listen to music with guitars so these were unusual for me. |

Maybe the following stand out for me since last time:
Real Lies - North Circular Tina Guo - Super Mario Bros DJ Sabrina The Teenage DJ - All The Beautiful Things U Do Swim Deep - To Feel Good The rest veer between a few genres I usually go for, but the spoken indie-electronica of Real Lies and Swim Deep aren't massively typical of my usual sound, and I can't see myself sending anything like Super Mario Bros again. DJ Sabrina is more like a Skall entry. Funnily enough, these four are four of my favourite songs of the last five years so maybe I should switch it wildly up more often - but none made the top ten, even though a couple definitely deserved to. |

Singerpurear don't have a Sound. The day people can predict what genre we enter is the day we retire from BJSC

Once upon a time anything weird or witch house wouldn't have been our standard entry sound but they've become the norm for us now. I think these stick out as ones though.
Boston Bun - Paris Groove (novelty, doesn't fit anywhere really) Generik - Last Night (dance but sticks out like a sore thumb dance and we don't do that at all really ) Jonathan Bree - You're So Cool (Almost didn't list this one as it does belong to my typical entry sound but the slowness of it I think qualifies it to be here. Summericia never really send really slow songs outside of the odd occasion. :') ) This post has been edited by Rob S Claus: 1st December 2020, 06:54 PM |
