October 12, 20168 yr Author 5/39 / Hushkanukia http://i.imgur.com/D0fUTwv.png Hushkanukia have also gone for a rather unconventional entry, sending the background music from The Last Stand, as featured in some series of the TV show 'Raven', by Scottish composer David Brockett. I confess I never really watched more than an episode or two. x 'The Last Stand' is just outside the top 10 in these early stages...

October 12, 20168 yr Ooh I was not expecting Taahino points for some reason! :o Thank you very much Lindsey :heart:
October 12, 20168 yr Author 6/39 / Land of DW http://i.imgur.com/R3HiXCx.png Land of DW provided us a 90s trance banger in 'Outside World' by German DJ duo Sunbeam, originally released in 1994 and subsequently featured on their 1997 album 'Out Of Reality'. Wikipedia informs me it's their 'biggest hit', but none of their songs ever charted in the UK, so I can only assume it was a European hit. It's lagging behind on single figures at the moment but still very early days. Hi Bré, A really interesting contest with some great entries - but to be honest, a session with all the songs would/will be quite the torture as there are a good amount of Mutters hidden in the list of entries. Let's see the Land of DW results: 18/ Botanikka // Mellow Trax - Phuture Vibes 15/ Aelandor // Gramatik - Illusion Of Choice 13/ Mulgracia // Glude - Breathe 12/ South Danaelanda // Steve Hill and Technikal - Technique 11/ Avalonia // Thomas Bergersen - Empire Of Angels 10/ Triangledonia // Moonbootica - June (Robby East Remix) 9/ Aeroche // AFX - PWSteal.Ldpinch.D 8/ Trifoski // Eats Everything - Big Discs 7/ Lomaja // Lets Be Friends - Allow It 6/ Deandria // Vessels - 4AM 5/ Persephonia // Jake Chudnow - Shona 4/ Thelonia // Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs - American Dream Part II 3/ Pupok // César Dávila-Irizarry and Charlie Clouser - American Horror Story Theme 2/ Taahino // BanYa - Beethoven Virus (Nightcore) 1/ Ethanola // Frank T.R.A.X. - Nebuchan (O.R.G.A.N. Mix) Can't really predict a winner, I see Avalonia and Taahino doing quite well. Everything that is not 'dance-y' or 'electronic-y' should do fairly well, as the ones who tend to ignore voting for these will end up voting for the same set of entries. We'll see. http://i.imgur.com/WXqftOG.png http://i.imgur.com/US8fbAZ.png http://i.imgur.com/9iVBTPI.png http://i.imgur.com/U4r4SsF.png http://i.imgur.com/abBqHVJ.png 01 47 Pupok // César Dávila-Irizarry and Charlie Clouser - American Horror Story Theme 02 44 Avalonia // Thomas Bergersen - Empire Of Angels 03 38 Aelandor // Gramatik - Illusion Of Choice 04 35 Taahino // BanYa - Beethoven Virus (Nightcore) 05 34 Federal Republic of Ashton // Ludovico Einaudi - Le Onde 06 34 Terra Avium // Lights & Motion - The Spectacular Quiet 07 33 Alteria // Teenage Fanclub - Is This Music? 08 31 Ultraviolenceland // Ennio Morricone - The Good, The Bad And The Ugly 09 26 Kluminican Republic // Hans Zimmer and John Powell - Oogway Ascends 10 25 Deandria // Vessels - 4AM http://i.imgur.com/WWvQfHO.png http://i.imgur.com/zI1ZsWc.png http://i.imgur.com/6IIo2Ls.png http://i.imgur.com/Vtz1qpz.png http://i.imgur.com/WBBnYAT.png 11 25 South Danaelanda // Steve Hill and Technikal - Technique 12 25 Cadelicia // ZUN - U.N.

It moves them into the low top 20. > Pupok get points again but their lead shrinks to 3, as another 11 points to Avalonia puts them in the silver medal position. Aelandor rally into third place after getting a 15. Taahino hang onto 4th and Federal Republic of Ashton drop to 5th. Land of DW's prediction of the non-dancey songs, specifically Avalonia and Taahino, doing well seems to be holding so far, but that could all change ;o ~ > Deandria clip back into the top 10 in 10th. Exit Cadelicia and Suedeonia. More points come in for Persephonia, putting us pleasingly next to Jadakissnia *.* had to happen at some point x > Triangledonia, Trifoski and Thelonia lodge their first points, leaving only four on nul points.
October 12, 20168 yr Niceland already getting over double their score of their main contest entry *_*

October 12, 20168 yr Taahino switched to a more digestible 3-minute classical-flavoured track with a bit of a twist ~ it's a nightcore (ask Iz) version of 'Beethoven Virus', created by South Korean group BanYa for the 'Pump It Up' video game series. (I've never heard of it either).Pump It Up is a DanceDanceRevolution rip-off that has diagonal arrows and another pad in the middle to step on. It's cool and all but DDR is better.
October 12, 20168 yr Author 7/39 / Thelonia http://i.imgur.com/ZhYWGo4.png Thelonia may be currently banned from the main contest but we have been treated to a spinoff entry from them, and it comes from the wonderfully named Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs (an English DJ with the even more wonderful real name Orlando Tobias Edward Higginbottom). 'American Dream Part II' (there doesn't seem to be a Part I) comes from his 2012 debut album 'Trouble', also home to the incredible 'Household Goods', although not Anna Lunoe collab 'Feels Like' which was a 24th placed Aeroche entry in BJSC 69. TEED has only just got off the mark here. 18 points: Glude - Breathe (Mulgracia) 15 points: Lights & Motion - The Spectacular Quiet (Terra Avium) 13 points: Mellow Trax - Phuture Vibes (Botanikka) 12 points: Steve Hill and Technikal - Technique (South Danaelanda) 11 points: Lone - Backtail Was Heavy (Republic Of Adonia) 10 points: Ludovico Einaudi - Le Onde (Federal Republic Of Ashton) 9 points: Gramatik - Illusion Of Choice (Aelandor) 8 points: Sunbeam - Outside World (Land Of DW) 7 points: Moonbootica - June (Robby East Bootleg) (Traingledonia) 6 points: Ennio Morricone - The Good, The Bad And The Ugly (Ultraviolenceland) 5 points: Lets Be Friends - Allow It (Lomaja) 4 points: César Dávila-Irizarry & Charlie Clouser - American Horror Story Theme (Pupok) 3 points: Sonority - Chase The Sun (FSR Rontvia) 2 points: Thomas Bergersen - Empire Of Angels (Sun) (Avalonia) 1 point: Eric Johnson - Cliffs Of Dover (Dobago) http://i.imgur.com/WXqftOG.png http://i.imgur.com/WWvQfHO.png http://i.imgur.com/9iVBTPI.png http://i.imgur.com/US8fbAZ.png http://i.imgur.com/abBqHVJ.png 01 51 Pupok // César Dávila-Irizarry and Charlie Clouser - American Horror Story Theme 02 49 Terra Avium // Lights & Motion - The Spectacular Quiet 03 47 Aelandor // Gramatik - Illusion Of Choice 04 46 Avalonia // Thomas Bergersen - Empire Of Angels 05 44 Federal Republic of Ashton // Ludovico Einaudi - Le Onde 06 40 Mulgracia // Glude - Breathe 07 37 South Danaelanda // Steve Hill and Technikal - Technique 08 37 Ultraviolenceland // Ennio Morricone - The Good, The Bad And The Ugly 09 35 Taahino // BanYa - Beethoven Virus (Nightcore) 10 35 Botanikka // Mellow Trax - Phuture Vibes http://i.imgur.com/x6scV04.png http://i.imgur.com/sMalWXU.png http://i.imgur.com/6IIo2Ls.png http://i.imgur.com/U4r4SsF.png http://i.imgur.com/1KMDo4x.png 11 33 Alteria // Teenage Fanclub - Is This Music? 12 26 Kluminican Republic // Hans Zimmer and John Powell - Oogway Ascends 13 25 Deandria // Vessels - 4AM 14 25 Cadelicia // ZUN - U.N.
