Posted October 14, 201410 yr Hello, good evening, welcome, this is John fresh from The Penelopes Sweet Song accidentally getting runners-up in the last competition. I’m sure it’s a fluke, but it at least gives me the chance to host this the 18th UP-based funtastic excite-orama. You may not know (in fact I know you not know) but there is another UP - yes, it’s true, long before there were Unknown Pleasures there was the United Planets - the democratic alliance of planets in the 30th century under the protective wing of The Legion Of Super Heroes, DC Comics 1958-established super-team (later nicked wholesale by X-Men, Avengers and many other Marvel-lous superhero teams). Back in the 60’s and 80’s they were mega in the comics world. Outside the comics world, they are indeed an Unknown Pleasure, so that’s a UP two-fer. Ecpvn-D0dt0 The mortal enemies of the UP are The Khunds, and also as is anyone that doesn’t follow these simple rules as cut n pasted from the REAL winner of the last contest (Hi Lewww!) who also hosted the one before and needs a break from hosting before his poor hands get permacramp from all the typing. Above and beyond the call of duty! It's an interstellar song contest that allows you to feast your ears on the more obscure music in existence, and anyone is welcome to join. We DO however keep a lenient cap on numbers at around [b]~30 MEMBER WORLDS[/b] so confirm / reserve your place within the contest quickly to ensure your inclusion. This contest continues to bring the best of the more alternative and unknown side of music, but to do so we have to go through a few ground rules.  001 There is no strict rule with regard to genre or length, but please do send something you think is suited to this competition, to help establish an identity away from BJSC. 002 The artist must not have reached the Planet Earth UK Top 75 Singles Chart or the UK Top 40 Albums Chart. 003 The song must not be on the current UK release schedule. 004 You must not choose an artist / song that has been previously entered in another edition of Unknown Pleasures. http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=139865 005 You must not choose an artist that has been previous entered in any BJSC contest. http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=104463 006 An artist can not be entered twice in this contest simultaneously, so it happens on a first-come-first-served basis. 007 You must not reveal or hint at which song you have sent as it defeats the point of the 'Unknown' element of the competition. 008 Our sponsors and benign board of governors based at the Webers World UP political centre (location district: Indie/alternative, of the Mods Forum (Jake, 152chris, Grebo) reserve the right to veto any song that we feel does not fit the spirit of the competition. So don’t be a Khund, and join the fun(d). 009 We also reserve the right to change the rules at any time. Muahaha.  Please send your submissions via PM to MY ACCOUNT. You must do this by Saturday, October 25th at 23:59PM GMT. They must include: ✖ Artist Name ✖ Song Name ✖ Audio link (YouTube, Soundcloud, Vimeo etc.) ✖ MP3 Link (preferably 256kpbs or 320kpbs, as lower quality MP3s tend to suffer within the context of this competition.) and I suggest strongly that it be via Sendspace, as I use an early 80’s ZX Spectrum to access the internet and it can’t handle anything complicated. OK, not ACTUALLY, but it’s so full of rubbish I can’t get the lid down..... OK, now the gates are open and....off we go! (Confirmed are subject to Mod approval and change of entry but all seem to fit the criteria so far, yay!) ✖ CONFIRMED (31)✖ TOTAL SPACES TAKEN :: 31 ░░░░ Popchartfreak Conderella • Josh • jsilv ✖ ketalina ✖ Iz~ { bré } Ryan.

October 14, 201410 yr I am returning! And entering as soon as I can find an MP3 for my song, but while I faff about doing that, you can put me on the reserved list, plz. ^_^
October 14, 201410 yr I have confirmed yay (though I will reconfirm if I find something that I don't think will end up bottom 5).
October 14, 201410 yr I'll have a place. No idea what to send now. I find it so much more difficult to find entries to this than I used to given how similar the participation lists to this and BJSC are these days
October 14, 201410 yr Reverse me a place please John. Don't think I've got anything to match 'Truth' but I'll try!
