February 12, 20214 yr I just heard a song that screams "BJSC" entry, almost swapped my entry - but I have faith in it...
February 13, 20214 yr we've hit 60 61 now 61 seems like a good number, but how does it compare to the average number of entrants in recent contests? EDIT: Also, it seems that the timing of this contest (which was predetermined well in advance) is going to clash with the Nuggets contest that Bré is hosting which appears to have been held up by a reconfirmation. Edited February 13, 20214 yr by awardinary
February 13, 20214 yr Changed from my something I’ve been sitting on for UP, I had something much more obvious and much more likely to be a hit but DNQ last month = time to experiment I think.
February 13, 20214 yr Author we’re now at 65 (pending 2 reconfirmations) :cheer: watchlist: Wholune Greenfroze Trifoski
February 13, 20214 yr I’m really looking forward to participating in this contest again, I really didn’t think I could get this excited about BJSC again! :cheer:
February 14, 20214 yr 61 seems like a good number, but how does it compare to the average number of entrants in recent contests? Most recent contests have got between 61 and 64 entries (the highest in the last year was 68 and the lowest was 59). We have 67 confirmed nations for this contest now but 2 of those were vetoed a few days ago and haven't yet reconfirmed so not sure if we're likely to expect them to reconfirm at all - still pending the research being completed for the latest batch of entries as well so there might still be another late veto or two ~
February 14, 20214 yr We do have one last veto which we've just signed off on, if we can get a replacement quick, we should be good to go tonight!
February 14, 20214 yr Author Burial - Claustro 17 - entered once before, in XCVI, finishing 10th. 3+7 - samples 'Don't Front/Let's Chill' by Shyheim and 'Starstruck' by Lil' Mo - peaked at #29 on Buzzjack's Multichart in 2019. - appeared in 5 personal charts, 4 of those being BJSC participants (Jade, Bra, Doctor Blind, RabbitFurCoat) - nominated in Record Of The Decade 2020. - featured on Pitchfork, Stereogum, Clash Music, The Line Of Best Fit, DJ Mag, Dancing Astronaut, Consequence Of Sound, SPIN, Complex amongst many lesser known blogs, classed as moderate coverage. 7 Entrant has been PM notified.
February 14, 20214 yr Yeah Burial is one of those ones that got quite lucky to be sent before :( I definitely think those that would be fans of that song would know it already, myself included.
February 14, 20214 yr 'Claustro' is excellent - not only in my chart but a #1 there :wub: (I know that it was a chart topper for Bray too) - great taste whoever you are x
February 14, 20214 yr 'Claustro' was my 2nd favourite song of 2019 so would have been one of my least competitive 18s ever if it had been allowed through. (But yeah I basically agree with what Leww said)
February 14, 20214 yr hmm i don't consider burial to be that cheap :lol: blog coverage for him i think will always be a lot with any new releases, and definitely has a fanbase on here. it's like me trying to send TR/ST again!!!
February 14, 20214 yr I think I was alright with Burial before as I sent a track that was a few years old and had next to none blog hype or personal chart support at the time. As an act they've got a bit of a fanbase here, as proven by the ROTD nominations and chart appearances! Might seem tough on the face of it but on Buzzjack they're kinda known!
February 14, 20214 yr If it wasn't for Leww my comeback song would have been ready to snatch weaves but I couldn't be veto'd in my return.
