We have an exciting night ahead of us! In case anyone's new to this, I'll be revealing everyone's votes in the order I received them. I will also reveal which song each person submitted as I'm posting their votes! So don't give anything away just yet, but part of the fun is to guess people's songs before they're revealed, so please do that! I have 30 votes, so if we have a good pace we can have a winner in about three hours. It's a VERY tight race!

I'll start this in the next 20 minutes or so, starting with my own votes and revealing which entry was mine :o

In the meantime, here's the fabulous winner from the last contest, courtesy of Cameron, as well as the runner up courtesy of myself :P

Hype!

Shall be trying to multitask this / BGT ;o x

Won't be able to follow proceedings live unfortunately, which is a shame as I thought the quality and variety here was really strong compared to previous editions. Certainly a lot of discoveries I'll be taking away from this contest. <3

 

I've a feeling my top-pointer will be pretty unpopular - got a real wooden spoon vibe to it. And in contrast, my runner-up feels like a huge contender for the win~

 

I'd imagine my own entry will be mid-table at best but still intrigued to see if it finds any big fans. I reckon it's the most 'quintessentially me' (for want of a less douche-y expression) songs I've sent to one of these things in ages. Reminiscent of quite a few of my BJSC entries anyway so wouldn't be surprised if anyone's guessed I'm behind it~

 

Hyped to see the results later!

 

 

1/34: Riser

Pixx - Grip

 

20 – Ekkah "Last Chance To Dance"

15 – Zolita "Holy"

12 – Julien Baker "Something"

10 – LOLO "Shine"

8 – Annet Charitonova feat. Ben Cristovao "TAKTOMABYT"

7 – eRa "Ameno"

6 – Soldout "Forever"

5 – Tyzo Bloom "Ukiyo"

4 – Emma Jensen "Closer"

3 – JYNX "Saffron City"

2 – School Of X "Words"

1 – Heirsound "Proud"

 

We'll start a running scoreboard with the next set of votes, which will be from Mattias who won Unknown Pleasures two contests ago! Will he be a contender this time?

My apologies for not submitting my results; it has been hectic recently at work and this just completely crept up on me.

 

I hope some people enjoyed my entry, anyway, and I've enjoyed some of the songs I've managed to listen to!

 

How exciting. I'm still disappointed I couldn't give more points to a particular one of the more out-there entries.

 

Will we be speculating about who might've sent what as we go along or is that not allowed? Obviously with nobody confirming things until all is revealed....

excited :cheer:

 

Thanks Riser :kink:

Would have predicted your entry to be Julien Baker, Jordan! :magic: x

19 01 Heirsound - Proud

19 01 Pixx - Grip (Riser)

 

So Pixx is the first revealed entry to make the scoreboard, but does so at the very bottom. Mattias isn't on the scoreboard yet, but I think every song gets points by the eighth vote. And the turnover at the top of the scoreboard has already begun! The next votes will come from HarryApa.

 

Will we be speculating about who might've sent what as we go along or is that not allowed? Obviously with nobody confirming things until all is revealed....

Yes, in fact everyone's encouraged to speculate!!

Ekkah as the early leader, interesting. For indie especially I was thinking when listening that this crop was definitely leaning more in a particular direction...not so many guitar-led tracks.

 

edit: hah as soon as I post this it changes >.<

The singing monks are in the lead.

Great entry from Mattias :heart: the instrumental reminds me of something that I cannot put my finger on. x (Thought that one would have been 152chris, flopping with predictions thus far)

Ekkah quickly reclaims the top of the leaderboard, and five more songs get points for the first time. Harry also finds himself near the bottom of the scoreboard to start. The next entry to be revealed belongs to defending champion Cameron!

 

Great entry from Mattias :heart: the instrumental reminds me of something that I cannot put my finger on. x (Thought that one would have been 152chris, flopping with predictions thus far)

152chris didn't enter this time, so that prediction was a guaranteed flop :P

 

Not many tracks picking up votes across the board yet...is it just Soldout in the first three?

Mattias's entry just missed my points:(

Peter Peter a great discovery. I was on and off on it through the whole period, great production on the track though, really classy. Reminded me of Robyn.

It's looking good for artists starting with E, with Ekkah, eRa, Emma Jensen, and ESSEX in the top 10. Eastghost hasn't got the memo yet unfortunately. Cameron's off to a pretty good start to defend his crown. Next to be revealed is PeteFromLeeds!

 

Not many tracks picking up votes across the board yet...is it just Soldout in the first three?

Yup! I felt the votes were spread out quite nicely, which made everything more interesting to add up.

 

152chris didn't enter this time, so that prediction was a guaranteed flop :P

 

Oh. Oops :kink:

Fab entry from Harry as well! And also liked Cameron's. x

PBN enters straight in the top 10, and ROMES suddenly takes the lead! Pete might not be a contender yet but that could change. Can anyone guess which song belongs to Chez Wombat?
