Hello everyone and welcome to Windevale, city of eternal winter. We're proud to be hosting the 84th edition of the Buzzjack Song Contest on behalf of Yehesi, who scored their first win last month with the fun and uplifting "10.000 luchtballonnen", sung by Belgian/Dutch girl group K3. Listen to last month's winner below, and gasp at it's marvel.



A Little About Us

Cadelicia is a small country on the continent of Quilvoria, home to nearly 3 million people. Straddling the equator, Cadelicia basks in glorious weather in the far north and south of the country. Windevale, the capital of Cadelicia and this month's host city, is high up in the Windevalian Mountains; this causes a vast change in temperature and climate, bringing darkness and colder temperatures to the city (perfect for skiing and honing your snowman making skills)! The country was recently granted permission to extend the northern border to the coastline, due to the partial land acquisition of Jamora, and have used this as a way to gain more tourists (by offering sun, sea AND snow to budding travellers).

During the country's 32 month life in the BJSC, there has been varied success. Cadelicia has multiple top 10s to their name in both the main contests and spin-offs but only one win, stemming from the second Christmas spin-off. Last year we hosted the 5th edition of Re:LOADED, and hope to make Yehesi proud by providing a polished edition of the main contest on their behalf.

Green Room

This is the Green Room, where you can discuss all of your preparations for next week's confirmations thread. Where is your act from, and what genre do they represent? Will you be playing it safe, or will you take a risk in the hope of giving your unique song the chance of recognition?

Please don't post any major spoilers about your entries in this thread or the Confirmations thread. If you feel the need for a little bit of help deciding on your entry, you may PM trusted allies with potentials (WARNING: discretion is advised). However, DO NOT reveal your actual entry, either on here or on any social media, to anyone until the Semi-Final threads have been opened.

Timeframe

Below is the provisional timeframe for this months contest, pending moderator approval. I've tried to keep to a Sunday/Monday opening or closing of threads as these seem to be the days where most of us are available. This is also the reason for the longer than usual Green Room thread.

Confirmations | 08/05/2016 - 15/05/2016
Semi-Finals Voting | 16/05/2016 - 22/05/2016
Semi-Finals Results | 23/05/2016
Final Voting | 23/05/2016 - 29/05/2016
Final Results | 30/05/2016

We hope you have fun during your stay in Cadelicia, and don't forget to pack both your summer and winter essentials! xx

TITTI TAKEOVER IS COMING

I promised myself that I wouldn't send dance this contest, and I'm sticking by that. I'm also praying there's WiFi when I'm at Hawaii (though there likely will be if there was WiFi in Italy).

 

Probably might not be there for final results though

I've got 2 big potentials at the moment, I'm either sending a house song or... another house song :magic: :dance:

I have loads of potentials for the first time in months, so any assistance would be most appreciated.

I'm going cheap retro 80s track.

Persephonia are going Lebanese this month with our second Arabic language entry. The war on the English language returns.

ooh, I shall be confirming live from Stockholm. :cheer:

After being swamped with potentials I am now set on an entry for this contest! Sending a French producer this month so that's a new nationality in the bag. The vocals are back and I'm absolutely in love with this. Dripping in synths, a lil bit dramatic and a cool pixelated video to go with it.

Missing the final *unless* I have Wi-fi on holiday :(

 

Oh, also, can someone with decent BJSC knowledge and a taste for trap and tropical house give me some opinions on if my two potentials are BJSC friendly & any good pls :D

Thought I'd have to sit this one out seeing as I'm heading to Copenhagen at the end of the month for work but those dates are fine! Hurrah! :D

 

I have one song in mind that I was going to send last contest but changed my mind... The group might be too way well-known so I'll have to use the framework before I confirm eeek.

I'm going electronic but not dance/cat alarm.

Anyone need help can PM me I dont mind it :wub:

 

I am sending psych pop :D

British dance banga coming your way ~

Excited for the usual dance block members but I may be sending something not so dance this month (or I may not enter at all this month depending on the dates and exams etc)

Alright, I have never actually shared a potential to someone for opinions (well I used to just play potentials on plug/dub a lot without saying they were potentials) so I'll PM you what I'm thinking (hopefully it hasn't already been sent but it's a new upload)

 

(btw iirc I found Rush when I was subscribed to the Armada channel :kink:)
