BuzzJack Music Forum _ Buzzjack Song Contest _ BJSC 136: Kakuninfirmations - 確認
Posted by: Iz 💀 1st July 2021, 11:31 AM
Welcome to Ziadiz, Séyetana - the Imperial Racing Grounds - which play host to the 武道館 (Budokan) stadium just out of shot.
Here is the entry point for BJSC 136 - all entrants must pass through this area to enter the upcoming contest, unofficially dubbed the 夏天皇賞 - 'Summer Tennoushou - Empress's Prize'. No relation to the real-life Japanese horse races of Spring and Fall Tennoushou, don't know why you'd be thinking that.
Please enter using the Google Form linked here: https://forms.gle/ZGdVNYMXR1o11hRu9
Rules
1. All officially registered countries with the BJSC commission are eligible to enter, with the exception of Beaverdonia, Oslol and Taahino, who unfortunately did not submit their final paperwork last race and must therefore skip a contest.
2. In order to test their unbeaten streak and their chance at winning a Triple Crown, Farc will autoqualify for the final race. Should there be an even number of participants, their nearest rival, Aeroche , will join them.
3. The previous race has just concluded and, as is tradition, the
4. Please look at the http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=211939 link to ensure you are not entering a song that has been entered before.
5. All songs will be checked by the moderator team to ensure there is no unfair advantage, against the http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=196914. Songs that pick up too many points or are otherwise deemed against the spirit of the contest and reach a majority of moderator votes to that effect will be vetoed. If this happens to you, you will be informed and allowed to resubmit.
6. Submissions are only accepted by the above Google form. All paperwork must be correct in order to enter, if not, you will be pestered.
7. As in the above image, confirmations will be accepted until Wednesday 7th July 23:59 BST. Plans to show all times in CST for banter purposes were nixed on the grounds of common sense. Semi-final lineups will be revealed on Thursday 8th and opened for voting shortly after.
(thanks all for your feedback in the green room, I'll stick to my original plan and aim to have the results shows starting around 5pm BST)
Further dates for your calendar:
Semi Final Voting - Thursday 8th July - Thursday 15th July
Semi Final Results - Friday 16th July - from 5pm
Final voting - Friday 16th July - Thursday 22nd July
Final results - Friday 23rd July - from 5pm

Got in nice and early with my hot slice of Scandi.

as for myself, anniversary entry set and ready to ROCK
Posted by: Bré 1st July 2021, 11:55 AM
Currently relistening to all of my potentials and getting nowhere with deciding which one to send oops. The song that I thought I was leaning to the most I am suddenly not so sure about (not to say that I don't still want to send it but just not sure it's the one I want to send the most any more).
Ambient electronic instrumental vs. 3am nightclub jam vs. psychedelic/surf rock instrumental vs. glitch hop instrumental. What do.
Posted by: Jade 1st July 2021, 11:58 AM
Confirmed 
Posted by: Roba~ 1st July 2021, 12:02 PM
Confirmed!
Posted by: King Rollo 1st July 2021, 12:07 PM
Confirmed some synth pop with a male vocal. The song title fits with the horseracing theme.
Posted by: BiminiBonBoulex 1st July 2021, 12:08 PM
Confirmed with a song that I think I first heard in March but has only really hit me HARDT in the last week or so after I came back to it.
Posted by: Mart!n 1st July 2021, 12:31 PM
Confirmed with a lovely soft ballad, the lyrics are just on point, with depth and meaning.
Posted by: Bré 1st July 2021, 12:38 PM
After relistening to all of my potentials like 4 times each I have confirmed now. Settled on the most obscure and maybe most niche of the 4 (not that any of them really jump out at me as wide appealing) because living dangerously. Psychedelic / surf rock it is xx
(with bonus superficial pandering to the hosts with the artist name)
Posted by: Suedehead2 1st July 2021, 12:42 PM
Hmm, what do I go for?
A lovely little pop song not on Spotify?
Something delightfully silly?
Some 90s guitars?
A nine-minute epic?
A sub-three-minute ditty?
Or none of the above?

A nine minute epic please.
Posted by: Suedehead2 1st July 2021, 01:02 PM
I thought that might be a bit short for you
Posted by: ClaudiaKinkleman 1st July 2021, 01:06 PM
Ok so which one of you had the NERVE to snatch my entry up before me 
Posted by: Bré 1st July 2021, 01:07 PM
Technically no one did as it was just an artist clash 
Posted by: Bdelita 1st July 2021, 01:08 PM
have we ever had sentient AI written song as BJSC winner before? regardless we'll have one this month just a warning x
Posted by: Bré 1st July 2021, 01:10 PM
TARO Bellamia have never won so no
Amirite

Is the nine-minute epic Icelandic?
Posted by: J00prstar 1st July 2021, 02:55 PM
Right, one in because I cant decide which of the potents to go for. No doubt my lack of familiarity of personal charts these days will bite me in the bum though.
Posted by: ✖ leww ✖ 1st July 2021, 03:02 PM
I'm being a bit chance-y with what I've sent but I think it will be my favourite thing I've EVER sent.
Posted by: Suedehead2 1st July 2021, 03:04 PM
'fraid not
Posted by: Harve 1st July 2021, 03:04 PM
Veto my 10 minute sprawling, euphoric electronic masterpiece at ur peril because what I will replace it with the pop hoes will hate even more x
Posted by: ✖ leww ✖ 1st July 2021, 03:20 PM
are we trying burial x
Posted by: Bdelita 1st July 2021, 03:45 PM
I have confirmed
i'm surprised since they have like 15k monthly listeners on spotify
Posted by: Bdelita 1st July 2021, 03:46 PM
the burial of discord clique and pop/dance whoreness in bjsc, yes

I'd go lovely little pop song with the good taste to avoid Spitify
Posted by: Popchartfreak 1st July 2021, 04:10 PM
Confirmed. Something old and gorgeous...
Thanks for thinking it, but no, not me 
Posted by: FrankLuck 1st July 2021, 04:48 PM
Confirmed Dobago's 18
Love my entry, hope it'll find loads of fans (3-4) 
Posted by: Travis 1st July 2021, 05:08 PM
Confirmed something that is VERY Kim Petras-esque. Hoping no one else snagged it before me and it meets the veto requirements!
Posted by: Quarantilas 1st July 2021, 05:17 PM
We have a second clash and the unlucky participant has been informed
Posted by: Travis 1st July 2021, 05:30 PM
teehee jk back to the drawing board
Posted by: Riser 1st July 2021, 05:42 PM
Well someone's being removed from our Christmas card list 
I had some male R&B planned for 137 so I guess I'll send that now instead
Posted by: addylita 1st July 2021, 05:48 PM
while you're all clashing with one each other, I sent diet techno made in Ukraine!!!

oop that sounds like mine x
Posted by: Harve 1st July 2021, 06:20 PM
Duh
I can't remember if it was Claustro or Chemz that got vetoed in January but 'previous candidates need not apply' is not in force here x
Posted by: Bré 1st July 2021, 06:28 PM
I might veto you for picking the wrong 10 minute Burial song from that EP x
Posted by: Ho-Lee Smokes 1st July 2021, 06:39 PM
thinking of recycling a previous flop aquafina artist tbh
Posted by: Thom Max Kay 1st July 2021, 06:39 PM
Confirmed something that I’m surprised someone else did already, but it’s all good
Posted by: addylita 2nd July 2021, 01:14 AM
Love my entry, hope it'll find loads of fans (3-4)
I think we’re in fight for Dobago 18 then
Posted by: FrankLuck 2nd July 2021, 08:44 AM
I'm living for this contest within the contest aspect
Tbh I already stan your entry based on the description and it's something Dobbo might love too, so this will be a tough race.
It would be quite a shitty plot twist tho if Dobago wouldn't enter...
Posted by: awardinary 2nd July 2021, 12:45 PM
Are we playing for Dobbo’s votes then? If so I better change my entry.
Posted by: Tombo 2nd July 2021, 04:12 PM
I've just submitted my entry, it's a song I've loved for a few years.
I've got quite a big list of contenders that I'm considering for the future but this is something I've wanted to send for a while so I thought I'd go for it
Posted by: Travis 2nd July 2021, 06:06 PM
Re-confirmed to something I just found randomly. Sounds nice and I’m happy with it, so let’s gooooo~
Posted by: Tafty³³³ 2nd July 2021, 08:17 PM
Gonna sprinkle some much needed Summer & sunshine all over this contest.
Posted by: 152chris 3rd July 2021, 09:19 AM
oh GAWD i better get looking
Posted by: Iz 💀 3rd July 2021, 01:23 PM
Up to 48 confirmations so far, keep them coming
Posted by: Doctor Blind 3rd July 2021, 04:44 PM
Cumulonimbia are IN.
Posted by: Iz 💀 6th July 2021, 02:02 AM
57 now, and a little under 2 days to go!
Posted by: Iz 💀 7th July 2021, 02:51 PM
This closes tonight - so anyone still deciding (Aelandor) make sure to get them in!

Worry not, I confirmed just unfashionably late this month.
Am I becoming predictable to pander to?
Posted by: gooddelta 7th July 2021, 03:54 PM
After spending most of the year in the indie/alt/electronic circles FSR Rontvia have firmly returned to POP for the summer. I couldn't decide which to go for out of two strong contenders so have hopefully made the right choice with a song whose video came out three weeks ago and has yet to breach 800 views - it deserves WAY more attention.
Posted by: Thom Max Kay 7th July 2021, 08:18 PM
YASSSS FSR Rontyania is back… I hope
Speaking of, amazed we’ve not had a single veto yet, are we all being inspired this month 
Posted by: LUKΞ 7th July 2021, 09:17 PM
I'm in sending something in Russian *.*
Posted by: dandy* 7th July 2021, 09:57 PM
I forgot all about this until a reminder just popped up... so y'all getting the last song I played as I need to be off to sleep soon
My Radio 2 phase will be making an unwelcome return!
Posted by: Bré 7th July 2021, 10:24 PM
With my mind having been solely on the football for the past few hours almost forgot the deadline for this was coming tonight!
We've hit the 61 entry mark now (including a few of the usual last minute crew confirming surprisingly early) but still missing a fair handful of people who entered the last contest, currently no entries from the following:
Aelandor
Arcodesia
Chestoria
East Rukahavian
Holland-Oats
Kathaldazia (obvz)
Lotunia
Sandebörg
Scherzland
Regarding vetoes it does look at the moment like we may not have any this month unless there are any last minute entries that cause any trouble!
Posted by: NocheLuna 7th July 2021, 10:52 PM
Entered! The artist choice is a little cheap, but the song is in ancient greek so I have to try
Posted by: Jacob 😮 7th July 2021, 11:58 PM
Entered an hour late but hoping I'm still in because #nepotism.
#rockbloc #Aelandorso2016
Posted by: Iz 💀 8th July 2021, 12:04 AM
no I was just about to yell 'closed' on this thing (as I woke up 5 minutes ago) god you are lucky - and allowed, because I'd do that for anyone. Gonna be stricter with votes though x
63 entries, thank you all!
Pending approval of the list and me finishing my prep, and indeed it looks like you are all being quite good this month so I don't get to be the bearer of bad news at all, we will have the semi-final reveal at 5pm.
In the meantime, here's a little tease of what I've been working on:

Now come on Rob, don’t f*** this up
Posted by: HarryBorelli 8th July 2021, 09:56 AM
Iz I expect a Dangonopa character for my country!
Posted by: Iz 💀 8th July 2021, 02:31 PM
Now you remind me, I didn't actually use any Danganronpa characters. I was thinking along similar lines for your one though.
I think... prep is complete. Reveal thread coming soon, then I'm going to take a quick coffee break before starting at 5pm.
oops I dropped an OP
