dhwe still didn't vote? oop

I think my tip for the win from the listenthrough was A.A. Williams but not super confident about that. I am pretty sure my own entry is going to be bombing though. x

Hype for Minor Science, Corn Wave, Emancipator, HURTR and Mandy, Indiana! I hope one of those win but would be happy with a couple of others. This was a really decent edition.

I will make a third person predicting a low finish for my entry. If I finish outside of the bottom 5 I will be pleased!

I won't be following along as I'll be at work but I'm happy with a A.A Williams win and it sounds the most likely of the songs but hope Goblin, Giant Swan do very well too.

I imagine I've not done too well here, a top-half finish would be nice! Hype to Giant Swan x

I am most intrigued to find out who sent Minor Science as that sounded like the kind of thing that I'd send to BJSC in a heartbeat if I'd found it myself!

When I heard it I thought 'Okay, Bré sent the same entry again' laugh.gif Not a bad thing though, as I usually give big points to stuff like this.

I'd love to avoid bottom 5 but I won't hold my breath + I think my 20 has a good chance of winning, so I'm quite hyped for the results!

A great pick from Rich, staying on point with the electronic entries as ever, what a banger *.*

C Z A R I N A definitely makes sense as a winning contender as well so not a surprise to see that with the early lead (not that the lead after 2 votes really means anything ofc)

3. Ansel

Corn Wave are from Kyiv in Ukraine. Yoda on ketamine is from their 2022 album, Philosophy Of Structures.



QUOTE
Hi! Here are my votes. Hopefully some people enjoyed 'yoda on ketamine' - the title immediately stood out to me when I was looking through Corn Wave's discography! It's a much angrier-sounding song than most of their other stuff so I'd recommend trying their chiller tracks, like Shoegaze TV or Youth Full Of Flowers. My 20 points go to... Giant Swan! happy.gif

20: Giant Swan - 55 Year Old Daughter
15: C Z A R I N A - Wonderland
12: Ginevra Nervi - An Interior of Strange Beauty
10: Mandy, Indiana - Bottle Episode
08: CLT DRP - Where the Boys Are
07: LiveonRelease - Emotional Griptape
06: Alberta Balsam - I Can't Save You
05: Demob Happy - Sympathy Boy
04: Emancipator - First Snow
03: Mmamt - A róka
02: Magnolia Park ft. Christo Bowman - Tokyo
01: Goblin - Jennifer
