The point Jake's making is that in order to keep this a competition with its own identity, it should be populated by people interested in the music in this forum and helping it grow. That doesn't mean they need to have posted, although if you are interested I don't see why you wouldn't, but it's to discourage people coming here just for glory by entering something that's vaguely alternative and would storm BJSC the same way it'd storm this while having little to no interest in the music that sets this forum apart from the rest of the genre forums.

I'd say most of the people in the contest do have an interest in indie music though even if it's only certain types of indie or if it's just a relatively small interest (like myself); it's good to get entries from the casual indie fans too~ anyway I'd like to think that Lucifer's Eyes was indie enough to not fit the 'storming BJSC' description even if it was only vaguely alternative, if that's what you're hinting at. |

Wasn't actually thinking of Lucifer's Eyes actually, just in general, tracks that could have been entered to BJSC and gotten through the semis no problem aren't great to see here. Because it tends to make the contest boring and just a BJSC spinoff.
But the thing is I see this as different from BJSC, here it's great that you can enter unusual music, weird music, music that may have very little current fans here, and see how it does, see if you gain any fans. There's no risk so it's easy to see it as not about the glory. Or at least that should be the case. |

I've confirmed my entry by the way, I won't be aiming for a win this contest but I hope it gets some fans. It's not something I'd enter to BJSC anyway (i.e. not deep house)

I have been guilty of just sending BJSC castoffs in the past but I am making an effort to send songs that are actually 'alternative' now (a strategy which paid off nicely with GOAT but that will probably prove to be a one off).
Actually I think I do have a song for this, or an artist at least (may have to mull over which song to send). Will try to get a confirmation in tonight. I'm going for an 'either top 5 or bottom 5' strategy again. |

Going a bit different from my previous efforts this month, not sure if it'll pay off.

look, i don't want to be abrupt or a dick but guys...this is UNKNOWN PLEASURES not BJSC FOR SLIGHTLY MORE LEFT OF FIELD ENTRIES. stuff like marika hackman and panda bear are going to get an instant NO because they aren't unknown and are actually well known and aren't what this competition is about.
don't want to be a dick to anybody but this isn't bjsc and just THINK. sending a a member of one of the indie world's best known and successful bands, animal collective with a song from their recently pitchfork best new music'd record, with a thread on this forum for the album, it isn't going to make it through... |
