September 8, 20168 yr Voted as I might not be able to get access to a computer on Saturday afternoon/ evening.
September 8, 20168 yr Semi 2 was much weaker than semi 1 on the whole but there were a handful of really big highlights! Tinnmark to qualify please, I've never voted for them before but this entry is SO good *.*
September 8, 20168 yr I just hope UltraViolence qualifies, the track is a little gem, just grows on you on every listen.
September 8, 20168 yr Yes seconding the Tinnmark hype :kink: It's very much this contest's 'Ilumbarada', I was already expecting to like it from the description but I was really blown away by it! :wub: (It's actually musically quite similar to 'Ilumbarada' as well although quite a lot darker). I reallyyyyy hope it qualifies, such a huge standout. Terra Avium and Dobago also stood out a lot, and Deandria's song is way better than Mattias is giving it credit for! Definitely a weaker semi than semi 1 by far, cheering on my top 15 and don't really care much at all for everything beyond that.
September 8, 20168 yr I should think Tinnmark shouldn't have too much trouble when Ilumbarada managed 2nd in the semi! But yes, lovely song and so nice to see more music of that style again.

September 8, 20168 yr Oh and I really enjoyed tonight, I didn't know how enjoyable plugging and actually having a chat was.
September 8, 20168 yr Oh yes we should do a collab Beaver and pool our efforts in two BJSCs time, we seem to be able to pick the good songs. :) Â Yes plug tonight was a lot of fun :)
September 8, 20168 yr Oh wow wasn't expecting that reaction :o I'm not getting my hopes up again like last month though ~ although I really want to get back into the final. Grrr haha! Edited September 8, 20168 yr by Rob S
September 8, 20168 yr Omg. Yes!! Our video will just consist of beavers and snakes taken from wildlife videos.Â
September 8, 20168 yr Semi 2 was much weaker than semi 1 on the whole but there were a handful of really big highlights! Was the epicness of Doctor Blinds voice and video making skills among those highlights? :kink: Â
September 8, 20168 yr funny how with all those woots I mostly want to hunt down the one person who meh'd
September 8, 20168 yr Well I wasn't there to see it at the time annoyingly, but I'm quite gobsmacked that I didn't pick up a single meh, I thought it rather divisive :lol: Very happy with that reaction though, pleasing to see I'm not entirely doomed! (Still would've been a bit more confident in Semi 1 though :'()Â I have sent and normally like dance as a genre but this semi made me sympathise with those that hate it clogging up BJSC :kink: Honestly there was a point in the listenthrough where I was wondering whether I was listening to the same song as earlier on repeat as EVERY SONG just melded together (a shame as there were a few I would've definitely quite liked in isolation). Â Unfortunately not a very good semi overall, the good thing was the highlights were really great. Three songs in particular stand out massively and I really hope they get through (one of them, to join the hype, was Tinnmark <3 (would've definitely given that a woot if I wasn't away at the time)) Edited September 8, 20168 yr by Chez Wombat
September 8, 20168 yr I'm personally offended by whoever mehd Secret, I didn't notice it at the time :/
