April 26, 20205 yr Omg this is my first ever music contest win on BJ :snif: I did enter on a bit of whim because of quarantine boredom and feeling a bit dry with my current listening. And so glad I did! Thank you for hosting Jade - flawless as ever and such a great energy to the entire contest. :heart:
April 26, 20205 yr Author 25. Leww was behind… Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene Pt. II 6Q00HQwO2Sg 12 Artemus Gordon - Deathrace 2000 10 Gemini Rising - Orbit 08 Arvo Party - Chevy Chase 07 Rogue VHS - Jupiter 06 Niky Nine - 909 & Heartbreak 05 Devault - RUNWAY 04 Hollywood Burns - Scherzo No.5 in Death Minor 03 Scandroid - Neo Tokyo (Dance With The Dead Remix) 02 Rosentwig - Press Start To Begin Your Journey 01 Andromeda Dreams - Two Million Light Years Finally we have Leww who is revealed to be behind Jean Michel Jarre with ‘Oxygene Pt. II’! French producer Jarre is a trailblazer of this unique, ambient, ahead of its time sound. ‘Oxygene Pt. II’ was one of our longest entries too - clocking in at over 7 minutes. This entry has been doing well all night, so it’s frustrating that Leww faces a penalty, but at least it isn’t winning at this stage (like earlier) and Leww pushes Gemini Rising ahead with his own votes too! His 12 goes to Artemus Gordon, so Rollo it looks like you’ve bagged yourself a top 5 tonight! Leww’s 8 goes to… me! Which pushes me up to 11th, gah, so close!! Right, the next scoreboard aka the FINAL one will incorporate tie-breaks and deductions, but here’s what it looks like before that: 1 100 Jai Wolf - Starlight (feat. Mr Gabriel) [Haus] 2 93 Gemini Rising - Orbit [Jupiter] 3 88 Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene Pt. II [Leww] 4 82 Hollywood Burns - Scherzo No.5 in Death Minor [Dan] 5 75 Artemus Gordon - Deathrace 2000 [King Rollo] 6 70 Scandroid - Neo Tokyo (Dance With The Dead Remix) [HarryEzra] 7 67 Dan Terminus - Digital Onslaught [Cody] 8 66 Glitch Lazzer - Don't Give Up [photografdemon] 9 66 Rogue VHS - Jupiter [lewistgreen] 10 64 Niky Nine - 909 & Heartbreak [NocheLuna] 11 63 Arvo Party - Chevy Chase [Jade] 12 59 The Midnight - River of Darkness (feat.

Dimitrius) [Chez] 24 22 Kalax - Carousel (feat. World Wild) [Jacob] 25 22 Future Holotape - Light Racer [awardinary]
April 26, 20205 yr WD Bal :cheer: that moment when you entered this out of quarantine boredom and immediately won while I have still never done better than 5th after entering every single edition :drake: Very happy with Jai Wolf as a winner anyway, always nice to have a winner I gave points to (and this was just within my top 8 that felt like distinct faves). Also... Meek being the Hoff :mellow: never woulda guessed tbh Well I hope not lest Beaverdoniaism start up!! Well dine The Haus :cheeseblock:
April 26, 20205 yr Congrats Bal! A worthy winner that wasn't far from my votes, bravo on winning on your first try! *.* Oh nooo at Jean Michel Jarre deducted, but at least it wasn't winning. Incredible entry leww <3
April 26, 20205 yr if you'd like to host vol.12 this July then let us know ;) but obvs don't have to right away ~JULY OMG that doesn't even feel that far away
April 26, 20205 yr So ultimately I knocked myself off the win! Shocked at a #2 but pretty sure that'll be my highest ever CB :lol: thx voters! Now apply it to BJSC for me too xox
April 26, 20205 yr so close to top 10 (vote wise) Thanks to everyone for your votes and Jade you did fabulous and flawless job :wub:
April 26, 20205 yr 'grats Jupiter for snatching 2nd at the last minute too. 4th would be a unique position for me and I'd have a complete 1st-6th run if only Lew had voted on time! anyhow it's great to see my entry do well in this again, glad you enjoyed it even if it's still months to go before halloween. that's now 7 top 5s in 11 contests!
April 26, 20205 yr Thanks Leww for the 12 points. A great way for me to finish. I've been playing some Jean Michel Jarre for the last hour while following the results. :music:

Enjoy your widget *.* Posters who received a Club Bizarre personal best in this contest: Bal - 1st Jupiter - 2nd HarryEzra - 6th SevenSeize - 18th math* - 22nd Jacob - 25th (Okay a few of those were debutants but still, g’won) I hope you’ve all enjoyed this synthwave edition of Club Bizarre! I’ve had a blast hosting and found the entries to be really high quality so I’m a satisfied host. :heart: 11th is frustrating for my entry but it was languishing in the 14-16 area for a while towards the end so at least I still got a last minute surge! Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B9h...dit?usp=sharing Until next time x
April 26, 20205 yr Also oops, what's happening to me in this contest, I used to have a top 10 streak :cry: need to get back in favour for the next one of these. At least my top 2 did really well, though a lot of my votes are quite a bit lower than I'd like. Great contest though, one of my favourite themes for sure, thank you also for being an excellent host, Jade <3 (although omg I'm always flopping in contests you host :'))
April 26, 20205 yr BAL YES <3 a long overdue (main) song contest win glad Digital Onslaught finished in the top 10, although Miami deserved a lot higher, thank god I was here to save these results! thanks to those who voted me and great work jade!!
April 26, 20205 yr yay! Redemption from the last contest! This is my fourth 7th placer, repeating positions seems to be my thing in non-BJSC contests. Thanks to everyone for the support! :wub: :wub:
April 26, 20205 yr I was hoping for maybe top half of the scoreboard for my song so I'm really pleased to see it finishing 4th. Congratulations Haus on winning the contest. Thanks to Jade for hosting so expertly again.
April 26, 20205 yr Author You're welcome everyone :wub: now time to recharge and then I need to host Nuggets at some point as well lmao (hope I don't curse that for you Chez)
April 26, 20205 yr BAL YES <3 a long overdue (main) song contest win glad Digital Onslaught finished in the top 10, although Miami deserved a lot higher, thank god I was here to save these results! thanks to those who voted me and great work jade!! THANK YOU!! ^_^ That was almost really embarrassing... I was watching the first half of the results but I couldn't really say anything that wouldn't give away my entry so I just decided to log off and pray for the best... Happy I didn't end up last at least! Edited April 26, 20205 yr by math*
April 26, 20205 yr A brilliant entry from Leww, stood out a bit as probably a more well-known track than everything else but it was still new to me so cannot knock it. Glad that it's still managed a top 5 position despite the deduction, not really much of a difference when it wouldn't have been thaaat close to winning in the end anyway! And the song that's replaced it in the top 3 was right next to it in my votes anyway so still pretty happy with 2 of the top 3, congrats to Jupiter on a strong performance as well even if it wasn't really my cup of tea. 5th through 9th place all got points from me as well, particularly happy Rogue VHS clung on despite getting fairly few total votes and Scandroid/Dan Terminus both handily turning around early flagging performances! Thanks Leww for the final few points for Devault meaning I at least snatched back a top 15 position in the final vote so not entirely ending on a low - I'm a little bit gutted to have ended up as low as 15th as I had pretty high hopes for this entry and the additional false hope of being top 10 for a lot of the reveal before being snubbed by nearly all of the later voters but nevermind, it wasn't to be (and of course it has ended up being pretty close, only one hypothetical vote away from 7th place, also pleased enough to have been in the top 3 for 3 people)! Hoping to come back stronger next time around ~~ (Bal to possibly maybe host a song contest for the first time? gah) Also a shame that Arvo Party just barely missed the top 10 and Fixion got paid absolute dust :snif: and poor poor Jacob being the holder of the lowest position ever achieved in Club Bizarre on his first attempt :ph34r: debut entries at both the top and the bottom of the scoreboard gah! Thanks Jade for a wonderful job hosting, has been a joy reading all of your words in this thread and of course discovering plenty of great synthy choons <3 now time to bring on another Jade hosted contest in a different genre forum :o
