August 19, 20222 yr Author 147 Cazzi Opeia - You're My Sunshine We are doing a rare occurrence of back to back pop, reminiscent of 2015/16 and opting for Swedish singer Cazzi Opeia with her summer pop bop 'You're My Sunshine', how apt with the sun and heat waves happening. It's a catchy number if I say so myself and she has settled in a pop semi too so here's hoping this will spark you up enough to vote it through!
September 5, 20222 yr Author Well we ended up 24th which is our 3rd time there after Ignea and Erika Jane finished before. Can't remember if there were any others lol. Did peg this as a safe top 20 I think but then with so much pop involved things went south for many. Cazzi also goes from having two previous top 10's in BJSC to missing top 20 on her 3rd go around. Thanks to Kyriatine for their 18 and to others who enjoyed it. Congrats to Hendinia again and our 18 finishing 4th which was their best ever result. So good stuff on those aspects. I did jinx Wardy though. I'm sorry x -- aaand with that contest done we are heading away from pop and returning to trance with the song I've held off for a whole year due to the #tranceisdead times. This is stunning for me though so even if it does dnq and ends my impressive 12 Q Streak I'm going out with something I really adore (although it shouldn't imo). Edited September 5, 20222 yr by Roba!
September 26, 20222 yr Author 148: Sean Tyas Ft Lo-Fi Sugar - The World (Darren Porter Remix) HHusapx5hwo We've been waiting for the time to return to trance again as it does seem to be a mixed genre for success in these contests but we've decided September was the right time to unleash this beauty. We've sat on it a whole year as well as it would have been too soon after The Mystery last year flopped in the final. This just sends me to another world completely, the build throughout and the drop in it is otherworldly imo and it's very easily surpassed my other trance entries too to be my favorite of the lot. It deserves to do well imo but I'm prepared to expect it not making it too because of said aforementioned mixed success that trance does in BJSC. Anyway enjoy the full 8 minute version *.* Edited September 26, 20222 yr by Roba!
October 2, 20222 yr Author :cheeseblock: We made the final which takes our Q streak up another notch to 13. Must say I'm impressed when I've had a couple of unexpected songs get through really lmao. We will be in 38th spot so a very satisfying area for our wonderful trance entry <3 Now we just need a decent showing next week just to keep trance on the ground x
October 11, 20222 yr Author 'The World' ended up at 25th for us falling 5 shy of our hopes for a top half finish which it deserved imo. The taste was lacking in the end but thanks for the nations that did vote for it including Zanmatony, Pestolia and Arcodesia for the 18's and Botanikka and Danaeviia for the 15's. Trance nations sticking together. I was kinda waiting on this big trance song to send to see me off onto another hiatus and had expectations of being a bit bigger a success than it was ngl. However as for the hiatus.. it can't be as I'm in the middle of a Q streak and there's two contests remaining of the year so it has become a mission to now try and complete a full year calendar year of Q's if it's possible.

October 12, 20222 yr Please don’t go on a hiatus. I need good entries and you’re one of the most reliable for them. :cry:
October 13, 20222 yr Author Please don’t go on a hiatus. I need good entries and you’re one of the most reliable for them. :cry: Ha I've had it in mind for a year now as last year was so mentally exhausting but I continued as had found songs to keep going and the Q streak was building up. Once I've do dnq might have a rest though as it's been over 3 years non stop! Glad you are finding them essential though Wardy! Edited October 13, 20222 yr by The Robageist
October 24, 20222 yr Author BJSC 149 fo4TRnk9wCA Sending something a bit more risky this month and it's got really low vocals and dark vibes. Edited October 24, 20222 yr by The Robageist
October 28, 20222 yr Author Well we are going for a double dose of very dark orientated entries this month with our Halloween Spin Off Entry being Crosses with 'Bitches Brew'! Check out here QBN-1Q0_Fiw
October 28, 20222 yr To the shock of no one your main contest entry is your best for ages for me :kink: excited for your Halloween entry too, have really enjoyed everything else I have heard from them! (I saw they dropped a new song just yesterday as well, the timing) Also aw at you potentially taking a break again soon D: hope you won't be gone for too long if you do ~
November 1, 20222 yr Author To the shock of no one your main contest entry is your best for ages for me :kink: excited for your Halloween entry too, have really enjoyed everything else I have heard from them! (I saw they dropped a new song just yesterday as well, the timing) Also aw at you potentially taking a break again soon D: hope you won't be gone for too long if you do ~ I did expect you and Jade to be fans tbf :kink: it's good to be back into the niche crowd again although pop was good for a spice up as it gets too predictable at times lol and I know you loved the Crosses track via the chat I was part of for the first time in about 4 years I think. Hoping for good things for that later in the week. I did see they were releasing a new song actually but I haven't heard it yet. Well it's not set in stone I'll be taking a lengthy one or anything yet! -- We're through once again :cheer: taking it up to 14!! Qualifiers. Unbelievable and again hopefully a semi decent result incoming in the final. Edited November 1, 20222 yr by Roba!
November 1, 20222 yr Congrats on qualifying *.* I am loving both your main contest and Halloween entries right now, so Summericia on form :wub:
November 9, 20222 yr Author Congrats on qualifying *.* I am loving both your main contest and Halloween entries right now, so Summericia on form :wub: Thanks Jade. I knew you'd be a fan already haha. -- 18th for us is fab especially for an extremely unusually cool track. Thanks all who pointed it especially Pestolia and Suedeonia for the 18's :wub: We've also not ended up bottom 10 for 9 nearly 10 months now whilst also qualifying for every contest of the year bolted onto the 5 from last year so I have even more pressure to not slip at the full calender year now as that would soo frustrating haha. We did stumble across a bop last night that could do the business. We'll of course reserve any presumptions just yet though. Edited November 9, 20222 yr by Roba!
November 28, 20222 yr Author 150 Madison Rose - Thunder Finishing up our 2022 year (aside from Nuggets) with Madison Rose with her dance floor pop bop 'Thunder'. She's been entered twice before this year but I was only aware of one song of hers as I wasn't in the semi that 'ICONIC' was sent and DNQ'ed in (plus the songs list not updating also wouldn't have known heh). I admit to not pointing 'Better Off Alone' nor commiserating it at the time either as something wasn't quite clicking with it for me but having listened to that last week again it's luckily grown on me a lot now. Anyway... here's 'Thunder'. 4jmaluR_Oxs
December 10, 20222 yr Author We did it. We managed a full year qualification streak :cheer: (added onto the 5 last year we were already on) taking things up to 15! Edited December 10, 20222 yr by Roba!
December 19, 20222 yr Author 4 years and 4 months later we bag a 2nd BJSC Win :cheer: :cheer: thanks to all who gave Madison love! As a result of our win we will recieve an AQ so no pressure there! *.* Fantastic way to top off a calender year of qualifiers too! Edited December 19, 20222 yr by A Roba's Tale
December 19, 20222 yr Author Congrats Rob for the win. It was a great discovery for me :cheer: Cheers Ben! ^_^ Also after looking at what else finished top 10, former artist of ours Ericka Jane managed to come top 10 some 5 1/2 years later. Well done to her as well! Edited December 19, 20222 yr by A Roba's Tale
December 19, 20222 yr Big congratulations Rob! I was waiting for you to win again, with so many consecutive qualifications and a few top three hits since your last win, it felt like it was bound to happen sooner rather than later. This is a great pop song, as I've remarked elsewhere to you it sounds like something The Saturdays would have smashed with in their heyday. I'm not surprised it thumped the competition.
