It's time to put those vocals away & whip those instruments out! Welcome to the 7th edition of the now world-renowned Club Bizarre

Please find below the list of songs thrown into the mix for the next heated battle. As per the norm all voters must use the 12 point system (12/10/8/7/6/5/4/3/2/1) when submitting. It's worth mentioning once again that those who did not submit an entry are still welcome to vote so if this tickles one's fancy by all means get involved! The deadline is now set at Sunday 21st April 23:59 BST so please keep this in mind. All votes are to be posted to myself (http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=20053) by no later than then.

You may not vote for your own entry (try as you may, I know who sent what ) & the usual penalties are in force for either late votes [15% deduction] or complete no shows [33%] so please don't be one of them (it's worth reminding that we had 3 of these last time!). It goes without saying do not even think of revealing your entry prior to the results thread, that's where I have my fun as host Enough of the spiel, let's get on with the contest!


Our wonderful Club Bizarre instrumental edition playlist (now back in the traditional alphabetical order style) is as follows:

So at last we're up & running! Sorry for the delays & late post everyone. On the plus side TheSnake has been permitted to partake so we are indeed at 23 entries so a fab turnout once again. Hope you all enjoy the contest

Posted by: Mattias 8th April 2019, 10:32 PM

Cool! I recognize a few of the artists by name (there's also a Deandria recycle in there from BJSC, can you remember which one x) but none of the song titles ring a bell so it's looking like this will be a contest of 100% discoveries. May there be some true gems in there once again

Posted by: Addy K!ng 8th April 2019, 10:34 PM

:cheers:


thanks Dobbo.

Excited to listen to all these tracks, I recognize few names...

Posted by: Bré 8th April 2019, 10:48 PM

Already can't wait to hear another track from Rival Consoles *.

Posted by: Juan Carlos ⚡️ 9th April 2019, 01:46 AM

I already began to listen to the songs in the Spotify playlist above and "Emotion 98.6" is georestricted in my country, so I have four pending songs to listen to. Anyway, there are really good choices there, so I will try to listen to all of them again before submitting.

Posted by: danG 9th April 2019, 01:34 PM

Interesting to see former DNLD entrant Andrew Rayel here and with an older song of his too.
This is a very vibey edition of CB anyhow, enjoying the listen.
And I only know the identity behind Snakey's song and mine, once again it seems near-impossible to guess most of the others.

Posted by: dobbo 12th April 2019, 10:27 PM

Some absolute beauties in this contest, the one task I'm not looking forward is ordering my votes!

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 12th April 2019, 10:31 PM

Anyone up for hosting a plug for this?

Posted by: dobbo 12th April 2019, 10:38 PM

Unlikely I'll be able to myself (nor even attend one) but I'm sure one of the usual suspects would be keen, willing & able!

Posted by: lewistgreen 13th April 2019, 03:11 PM

I can do Tuesday eve if that suits everyone?

Posted by: danG 13th April 2019, 03:22 PM

That’s Good with me!

Posted by: Mattias 13th April 2019, 08:02 PM

That sounds good, I'll probably be there. I've just finished my first listen-through and enjoyed it. Based on first listen, there was only one entry that I wasn't feeling at all. I'll have some trouble with the final ordering, won't enjoy cutting some of these songs out!

I can guess Iz entry (), possibly Chez entry and maaybe Jüpiter and Snake. No idea about the rest right now, like Dan said.

Posted by: lewistgreen 14th April 2019, 07:16 AM

Cool, I'll go with Tuesday at 8pm. Probably be on for around 7ish so we can play some instrumental faves.

Posted by: Iz~ 14th April 2019, 10:20 AM

Can you? Can you really? Am I REALLY that predictable?

Posted by: Mattias 14th April 2019, 10:25 AM

I mean watch me be wrong (I probably am this time tbf), but yes, yes you are.

Posted by: Iz~ 14th April 2019, 10:30 AM

Nein! I make efforts to be all shadowy and ninja-like so that nothing sticks to me. Also I like ALL SORTS of instrumentals. There's no way I'd be as predictable as you claim. Not a chance in hell, no sir.

Posted by: lewistgreen 16th April 2019, 06:44 AM

Plug sesh happening tonight. Be there from 7pm, starting around 8pm

Posted by: Cucumberella 16th April 2019, 07:39 AM

ooh i usually like plaid! 🏳️‍🌈

interesting that mylo is going to have album tracks present in all the song contests X

Posted by: lewistgreen 16th April 2019, 05:47 PM

Going to be in here: https://plug.dj/club-bizarre-dfsc

Come along when you can

Posted by: Jade 16th April 2019, 09:09 PM

My votes are in! I wooted every song on plug so yeah you could say I enjoyed this edition

Posted by: Bré 16th April 2019, 09:16 PM

Voted ~ this wasn't quite as great as the BJSC Instrumentals spinoff but I did enjoy every song to some extent and my top 5 in particular are all great so satisfied enough :3

Posted by: Mattias 17th April 2019, 06:12 PM

Posted by: dobbo 17th April 2019, 06:17 PM

The least indicative Plug stats of all time?

Great!

Posted by: Mattias 17th April 2019, 06:20 PM

Oh totally! Even in BJSC it means fk all these days, but it's still fun to see if curious

Posted by: danG 17th April 2019, 06:35 PM

Plug stats seem to be completely meaningless for this contest on the whole as most people are wooting most of the tracks.

I would tip Andrew Rayel, The Sidh or StripE for the win at this point based on instinct and comments anyhow.

Posted by: Bré 17th April 2019, 06:39 PM

StripE was the only one that really stuck out as a likely winner to me tbh!

Posted by: Mattias 17th April 2019, 06:42 PM

Sometimes I've seen someone ask about the stats the next day in these genre-specific anonymous contests and I've been the one to provide them. I think it's better to just get it over and done with because someone's probably gonna be curious every time lol

Anywho, voted now.

Posted by: lewistgreen 18th April 2019, 07:44 PM

Only a few days left to vote guys so get those rankings in!

Posted by: dobbo 18th April 2019, 07:52 PM

Have now voted myself, v v tricky to order - needed about 5 full listens through (not even including pre-contest!)

Posted by: dobbo 20th April 2019, 10:32 AM

Official reminders have been sent, I know the weather is lovely peeps but don't forget about this! (Soundtrack to a BBQ anyone?)

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 20th April 2019, 09:22 PM

Oops I had it somewhere in the back of my head that the deadline was Easter Monday but I'll get on this tomorrow!

Posted by: danG 21st April 2019, 05:48 PM

Still 8 (or fewer) of you to vote, let's make it a return to the old days of full houses!

Posted by: FrankLuck 21st April 2019, 07:15 PM

I've just got home after some days and I still haven't listened to all of the entries... I won't be able to vote today, sorry (but I'll vote tomorrow if there's an extension xx)

Posted by: BridgeCow 21st April 2019, 08:42 PM

Fuuuck I went for a nap I’m gonna try and vote now

Posted by: dobbo 21st April 2019, 09:35 PM

5 votes still remaining:

Cucumberella
dandy*
Dexton
FrankLuck
JüperBass


Will allow votes until 8PM tomorrow (still subject to the 15% deduction) with results to promptly follow then...

Posted by: Cucumberella 21st April 2019, 10:59 PM

can someone confirm if my votes went thru my sognal is terrible (on a scottish island rn so)

Posted by: dobbo 21st April 2019, 11:06 PM

Have not received anything as of yet.

Posted by: dandy* 22nd April 2019, 08:52 AM

Sorry! I’ve been too busy enjoying the sunshine and bank holiday weekend and I haven’t given this any attention so I won’t vote as it wouldn’t be fair

Posted by: dobbo 22nd April 2019, 10:04 AM

Fair enough dandy! Still accepting late votes until 8PM for the other 3 entrants so only a smaller deduction will be applied & of course any more votes can still play a part in deciding who is victorious.

Posted by: Mattias 22nd April 2019, 10:17 AM

Leww probably shouldn't get a deduction tho if he keeps trying, right? Seems like he tried to vote before the deadline and is just being limited by a Scottish island signal

Posted by: dobbo 22nd April 2019, 10:52 AM

Happy to waive the deduction for Leww (providing I do actually receive the votes ) as clearly he did attempt to submit before the deadline.

Posted by: danG 22nd April 2019, 07:21 PM

How more voters have we got and will the results be coming tonight?

Posted by: dobbo 22nd April 2019, 07:31 PM

All except dandy & Dexton have voted now. Results will be later but not until half 9 at the earliest. Almost everything is prepped though so the reveal should be reasonably slick & smooth.
