Posted by: mqh 2nd July 2017, 09:20 PM
Welcome to Offset, Medhelnia! You've been assigned into SEMI 1 if you're seeing this - and you probably know the rules already but I'll go through them just to be sure ~
1) Vote in the 12-10-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 form, nothing else! If you vote differently they'll just be adjusted to that format.
2) Don't vote for your own country lmao
3) Listen to all the tracks in your semi - don't just #blocvote from the countries you like. Also, listen to the autoqualifiers.
4) PM your votes to me, http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=22776.
The deadline for this is SATURDAY 8TH JULY, 23.59PM - so be sure to get your votez in before then! Otherwise, you'll be subject to a 33% deduction in the final.

ROB YAAAAAAASSSS
This is looking like a killer contest from what I already know 
Posted by: Jade 2nd July 2017, 09:26 PM
You wait for someone to recycle you eventually and then TWO Jadakissnia recycles turn up in the same contest *.* Hyped to hear the MssingNo and ONUKA songs 
('Bettie' is like the best Drag Race-related song that I've heard so slay me Hendinia)
Posted by: Chez Wombat 2nd July 2017, 09:30 PM
Deadmau5 and Empire of the Sun! It's like 2009 all over again *.* Lindsey Stirling as well <3
Posted by: danG 2nd July 2017, 09:31 PM
Interesting that Leon Else gets recycled from me the contest after I send him! 'What I Won't Do' is another good effort from him though~
and I also know 'Strobe', obviously. Love that song.
Posted by: burbe 2nd July 2017, 09:31 PM
Trash punjabi hype etc.
Posted by: HarryEzra 2nd July 2017, 09:32 PM
Omg I am not in this semi but sending love for Harmonica's and Hendina's tracks
Posted by: Cameron 2nd July 2017, 09:50 PM
YAS SANDEBORG!!!
Posted by: Cameron 2nd July 2017, 09:51 PM
Additionally, #Pupanukia are bringing the cheesy jams
Posted by: Bré 2nd July 2017, 10:45 PM
Yayy, excited to get stuck into some new BJSC songs again *.* x My song is probably super un BJSC friendly but it's such a banger I couldn't pass up on it, just hope that's not just me. It's not often that I come across (relatively) unknown hip-hop songs that I stan this much despite it being probably my favourite genre these days. x
I spy Medhelnia doing a recycle of both Persephonia and Jadakissnia *.* and Aeroche also recycling from our ultra-cheap debut entry from way back in BJSC 19 (welcome back to BJSC deadmau5, another great song from him 
) A couple others here I've heard already, one of which I can't say I particularly wanted to ever hear again 
Kluminican Republic sending two songs called 'Archangel' in a row, was this intentional or is that just a bizarre coincidence?? (wasn't sure on title alone if I know this particular Burial song but I quickly Googled it and I think I recognise the lyrics in which case yesssss wonderful entry (I mean it was already bound to be just from it being Burial but still xx))
This better deliver *.*
Posted by: Cucumberella 2nd July 2017, 10:56 PM
ashton going for something i had for next month, brilliant song
Posted by: jakewild 2nd July 2017, 11:27 PM
i'm ready to win with this orchestral bop tbh
Posted by: HarryEzra 2nd July 2017, 11:40 PM
I forgot to say also Taahino hype for the Flynnonda recycled artist

Niceland have sent a third different artist named ARIA to the contest (this ARIA is French while FARC's was British and Ultraviolenceland's was Norwegian). #funfact
(making a playlist for semi 2 now as well)
Posted by: Cucumberella 3rd July 2017, 12:47 AM
The link for Tartford's song in the OP has a typo in it so isn't working, mdh / a mod amend this pls ;o x
DONE
(i was actually listening to it myself so i edited)
Posted by: Bré 3rd July 2017, 02:23 AM
Thank you!
Have just had a thought that any plug.dj sessions for these semis are likely to clash with BuzzRate results unless they're done really early oops. So with that in mind... would people be here for a semi 1 listenthrough tomorrow/technically today (i.e. Monday evening)? x
Posted by: Jade 3rd July 2017, 02:27 AM
I am free and eager to get back into the swing of things so yeah I'd be up for tomorrow *.*
Posted by: RobBob 3rd July 2017, 03:05 AM
That'd be good for me too, providing I remember!
Posted by: *Tim 3rd July 2017, 07:04 AM
Opening the semi in STYLE *.*
Posted by: M. 3rd July 2017, 08:08 AM
omfg just noticed this. I originally sent this to... *thinks* BJSC 85 (very Deandria-like entry, I know xx) and ended up changing it
Will be fun fun seeing how it fares~/ TUNE

Unavailable.
05 St. Burbia | Tasha Tah - Malang (feat. RaOol)
08 Espen | SXTN - DIE FTZN SIND WIEDER DA
09 Rolloland | White Soxx - Versailles
26 Land of DW | Paddy And The Rats - Join The Riot
30 Terra Avium | Stellar Dreams - Infinity
Posted by: King Rollo 3rd July 2017, 10:30 AM
The youtube link for my song by White Soxx on that youtube playlist is different to the one in the opening post. It has more views but the sound quality isn't as good as the first one. I would urge voters to watch the one with 8000 views and it has pictures on it as well. The song only exists on the original vinyl from 1981 so even the sound on that one isn't great.
Posted by: Jade 3rd July 2017, 12:33 PM
Oh wow, at the time of confirming there was only an inferior remix of my song on Spotify and no sign of the original. But it indeed seems to be on there now, yessssss that timing *.* (that's pretty spooky considering the song has been around since 2014 )
Posted by: Bré 3rd July 2017, 03:16 PM
Oops, sorry, didn't realise there was any difference. I've changed it on the playlist.
Posted by: King Rollo 3rd July 2017, 03:29 PM
Thanks Bre 
Posted by: Bré 3rd July 2017, 03:44 PM
Planning to host a semi 1 plug.dj listenthrough in https://plug.dj/buzzjack-listen-throughs/ at 7:30 - hope that time is ok for people x (it should be finished before Big Brother if it starts on time, or otherwise will only run into the very start of it, hope it's not clashing with anything else ~)
Posted by: FrankLuck 3rd July 2017, 04:01 PM
Yay, can't wait!
Posted by: Bré 3rd July 2017, 04:07 PM

05 St. Burbia | Tasha Tah - Malang (feat. RaOol)
Looks like this is on Spotify but under the name 'Tasha T'.
Posted by: Brett-Butler 3rd July 2017, 05:18 PM
On first glance it looks like I've got the easier semi, but we'll see once I get my listening on. Looking forward to seeing if I can discover anything as glorious as "Hurricane" this month!
Posted by: Klumzee 3rd July 2017, 06:57 PM
I spy Medhelnia doing a recycle of both Persephonia and Jadakissnia *.* and Aeroche also recycling from our ultra-cheap debut entry from way back in BJSC 19 (welcome back to BJSC deadmau5, another great song from him
) A couple others here I've heard already, one of which I can't say I particularly wanted to ever hear again Kluminican Republic sending two songs called 'Archangel' in a row, was this intentional or is that just a bizarre coincidence??

This better deliver *.*
Burial's Archangel was the second video that comes up when you search 'archangel' on YouTube so that's how I discovered it
I knew you'd pick up on it!
Posted by: Jade 3rd July 2017, 09:13 PM
Voted nice and early! Impressed with both the Jadakissnia recycles *.* + Klum Rep hype x
Posted by: Bré 3rd July 2017, 10:12 PM
Land of DW's entry really came out of the leftfield and slayed my life a bit, unexpected pirate rock *.* this is the kind of thing I live for in BJSC.
Currently only have 9 songs I really want to vote for but I'll wait to do a second listen before voting as usual anyway x
Posted by: RobBob 3rd July 2017, 11:14 PM
DELIGHTED with my reaction of 12 woots on Plug, I don't think I've done great the last two contests regardless of the end result.
Posted by: Riser 5th July 2017, 03:50 AM
Can I be a pest and ask if there will be MP3 packs? 
Posted by: RobBob 5th July 2017, 04:16 AM
DADDY NEEDS A w***
Posted by: gooddelta 5th July 2017, 03:11 PM
Is there an alternative link for Land of DW, I can't get the Youtube vid to work and it's not on Spotify!
Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 5th July 2017, 05:34 PM
Voted! Very easily got it down to 12 songs but then getting it down to 10 and then ranking them was really hard!
Posted by: Bré 5th July 2017, 08:04 PM
Were you able to find a link yet? That was one of the best songs but was already gonna be struggling to qualify a bit even without no one being able to actually listen to it so I hope an alternative is available soon ;o
Posted by: gooddelta 5th July 2017, 08:10 PM
I did, but only because I use a proxy Youtube extenstion called ProxFlow that manages to unblock those 'Topic' automatically generated videos that aren't available in the UK:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3AL1ck4_fk
But yeah, I can't find any link that seems to be freely available to listen to without some sort of geoblocking.
Posted by: FrankLuck 5th July 2017, 08:34 PM
Well, yeah, let's not forget that I provided a good quality mp3. With a Saturday deadline we should have the mp3 packs... today?
Posted by: Bré 5th July 2017, 08:57 PM

Posted by: gooddelta 5th July 2017, 09:00 PM
Ha...wow, I seriously need to overhaul my Semi 1 predictions. Must remember that pure pop often underperforms on Plug though, so I'd still expect a few of those with only a small handful of Woots to get through.
Posted by: burbe 5th July 2017, 09:05 PM
9 woots I expected it to be marmite so yay!
Posted by: Bré 6th July 2017, 05:31 AM

Posted by: Riser 6th July 2017, 06:07 AM
I could use an alternative link for Pupok please, it's blocked on Spotify AND Youtube here!
Posted by: mdh 6th July 2017, 07:33 AM
I could try and make up some MP3 packs later I guess... I'd have no idea how to go about it tho!
Posted by: FrankLuck 6th July 2017, 09:25 AM
I could use an alternative link for Pupok please, it's blocked on Spotify AND Youtube here!
Same for me sadly (from work/German network)
I could help you out with that! I'll get home at 8-9-ish UK time, if you could send me the download links in a PM by then then I can create and upload the packs to zippy.
Posted by: Jonjo 6th July 2017, 11:27 AM
I'll take those 9 woots with 0 mehs! *.*
Posted by: mdh 6th July 2017, 03:32 PM
Okay, I'll send you the mp3 links before then. Thanks
Posted by: King Rollo 6th July 2017, 04:13 PM
