October 12, 20168 yr Author 11/39 / Deandria http://i.imgur.com/WBBnYAT.png Deandria provided another bit of post-rock with some electronic music influences with English band Vessels' '4AM' from their third album 'Dilate' (2015).

Botanikka drop to 3rd, and Federal Republic of Ashton leapfrog Mulgracia and Pupok to 4th, leaving Mulgracia in 5th and Pupok out of the top 5. > We get our biggest points yet from the ever-reliable (usually) Deandria and move up to 7th *.*
October 12, 20168 yr Author omg I completely forgot the state I sent my votes to you in, I'm so so sorry :lol: still better than Lotti's state you'll see what I mean
October 12, 20168 yr still better than Lotti's state you'll see what I mean Let's be real they're my most iconic votes to date
October 12, 20168 yr Author 12/39 / Ultraviolenceland http://i.imgur.com/6IIo2Ls.png Ultraviolenceland sent in by far the most recognisable track in the contest, the titular theme to the 1966 Spaghetti western classic 'The Good, The Bad And The Ugly' starring Clint Eastwood, composed by Italian living legend Ennio Morricone. A cover version (how do you cover an instrumental?) by Hugo Montenegro was a UK #1 in 1968, though the original didn't chart allowing it to just sneak by the veto. Its recognisability hasn't translated into it crushing all competition just yet, as it sits just inside the top 15. Top 3 are miles ahead of the rest! +18 Avalonia +15 Kluminican Republic +13 St Burbia +12 Quintessa +11 Hushkanukia +10 Taahino +09 Fljotavik +08 Terra Avium +07 Dobago +06 Ashton +05 Pupok +04 Seyetana +03 Cor Lupus +02 Altyr Muunalinst +01 Flynnonda http://i.imgur.com/US8fbAZ.png http://i.imgur.com/WWvQfHO.png http://i.imgur.com/abBqHVJ.png http://i.imgur.com/U4r4SsF.png http://i.imgur.com/WXqftOG.png 01 99 Avalonia // Thomas Bergersen - Empire Of Angels 02 75 Terra Avium // Lights & Motion - The Spectacular Quiet 03 62 Federal Republic of Ashton // Ludovico Einaudi - Le Onde 04 60 Taahino // BanYa - Beethoven Virus (Nightcore) 05 58 Pupok // César Dávila-Irizarry and Charlie Clouser - American Horror Story Theme 06 58 Botanikka // Mellow Trax - Phuture Vibes 07 56 Mulgracia // Glude - Breathe 08 53 Persephonia // Jake Chudnow - Shona 09 52 Alteria // Teenage Fanclub - Is This Music? 10 50 Aelandor // Gramatik - Illusion Of Choice http://i.imgur.com/1KMDo4x.png http://i.imgur.com/x6scV04.png http://i.imgur.com/TVlwDuY.png http://i.imgur.com/zI1ZsWc.png http://i.imgur.com/9iVBTPI.png 11 48 Ethanola // Frank T.R.A.X. - Nebuchan (O.R.G.A.N.

Taahino and Pupok are both back in the top 5 after dropping out earlier.
October 12, 20168 yr Looks like Avalonia have a strong chance of taking it. Which would be amazing, I have so much love for Thomas Bergersen and all of his creations. (spadz rescuing me a bit woo)
October 12, 20168 yr Author 13/39 / Jadakissnia http://i.imgur.com/X0tsKnk.png Jadakissnia dug into the potential archives for this spinoff, sending a former Worldvision II potential, Finnish electronic music trio Op:l Bastards (watch the swear filter) with 'Scorpius', featured on their 2001 debut album 'The Job'. They're so named because the automobile manufacturers Opel sued them for their original name 'Opel Bastards'. Subtle ~ 'Scorpius' started well but has slipped to the low top 30, can it recover? 18 Terra Avium // Lights & Motion - The Spectacular Quiet 15 Aelandor // Gramatik - Illusion Of Choice 13 Fljótavík // Underworld - And I Will Kiss (feat.

Another 15 points to Aelandor pushes them up to the bronze medal position - looking like a good month for them so far if they can hold this! Persephonia also enter the top 5 for the first time tonight at 4th place, hooray for Jadakissnia being the ones to get us there with their 10 points <3 Botanikka recover to 5th place in a small clearout (outside the top 2). > Fljótavík join the top 10 for the first time in 8th place, substantially increasing the top 10's running time. Alteria leave the top 10 to accommodate.
October 12, 20168 yr Author 14/39 / Persephonia http://i.imgur.com/TVlwDuY.png Our own entry is 'Shona' by English producer Jake Chudnow - you can read all about it in the second half of this post in our national thread (#promo) if it so interests you! :magic: All is going well for us so far as we're in the top 5. Cue epic foot shooting. Here are the votes from the host nation! As we have spammed in the thread to hype our own contest (but also because it's true), the quality was absolutely through the roof in this contest, nearly everyone on top form - we were a bit devastated to not be able to vote for Trifoski, Skall, Cadelicia, Niceland, Aelandor, Séyetana, Alteria... but here are the fifteen songs that did make it and all of them are certified 10/10 bangers/beauts (delete as appropriate). 18 Republic of Adonia // Lone - Backtail Was Heavy 15 Fljótavík // Underworld - And I Will Kiss (feat.

Needs to do better. x > Avalonia get some points from us too but Terra Avium get more, and close the gap to 10 points, while becoming the second country over 100. Among the songs we push ahead of ourselves is Fljótavík's, giving us the glorious sight of a 17 minute track in the top 3 - can it hold this?? We also place Taahino back at 4th (despite the Comic Sans :eyes: x), while Botanikka remain steady in 5th. > St. Burbia join the top 10 party for the first time in 9th, kicking out Mulgracia. Our own votes drop us to 8th. Oop.
October 12, 20168 yr Hurrah, thank you for the recent surge in votes. ^_^ Oh and thank you Bré also... surely it's only right that And I Will Kiss should finish in a medal position?!!! Edited October 12, 20168 yr by dandy*
