FC Kahuna was definitely all new to me as I thought anyway! Was reminding me a bit of Portishead, good stuff. Hafdís Huld queen of Icelandic Spotify with her decade old neverending album bomb also x

DJ Shadow - Midnight In A Perfect World

 

 

Hey Jade,

 

Hope you are feeling much better today.

 

Here are our votes- thanks for hosting. : )

 

★12★. Tangerine Dream “Love On A Real Train”

★10★. Whitewildbear “Light”

★08★. FC Kahuna ft. Hafdis Huld “Hayling”

★07★. Julien Bracht “Nocturne”

★06★. Craig Armstrong “Let’s Go Out Tonight”

★05★. Aphrodelics “Rollin'on chrome [Wild motherf***er dub]”

★04★. Kasbo “The Making Of A Paracosm”

★03★. Sven Väth “L'Esperanza”

★02★. Nora Van Elken “Dire, Dire Docks”

★01★. Faux Tales “Soar”

 

Really enjoyed this contest!

 

Next up another poster within the top 5 is unmasked! Doctor Blind opted for trip-hop legend DJ Shadow who is also known as formerly being a part of UNKLE. Some suspected that Dandy was behind this one at the listening session, alas, we wait a little longer for his reveal. 'Midnight In A Perfect World' started to bring back some voices in the contest after a long string of instrumentals prior to it. Doctor B rewards a fellow well-respected name, Tangerine Dream, well and sends them back into the top 10 off the back of a gold medal. Could jimwatts achieve a top 10 result from his debut? We shall see how it holds up. That silver medal for Whitewildbear is his third of the night so far. Elsewhere, these votes also put FC Kahuna back into the top 3 and strengthen Julien Bracht's lead - now 13 points ahead of Faux Tales, whose tally was also topped up a little here. Will that unlucky number gap be the sign of a turning tide on the horizon?

 

The top song may not have changed but we now have a new last place after Aphrodelics received 5 points within these votes. Poor lewistgreen!

Aphrodelics - Rollin'on chrome (Wild motherf***er dub)

 

 

Hi ^_^ here are my Club Bizarre votes ~

 

12 Recondite - Levo

10 Sven Väth - L'Esperanza

08 Craig Armstrong - Let’s Go Out Tonight

07 FC Kahuna - Hayling (feat. Hafdis Huld)

06 Nora Van Elken - Dire, Dire Docks

05 Leaving Laurel - Winter In The Woods

04 DJ Shadow - Midnight In A Perfect World

03 Julien Bracht - Nocturne

02 Christian Löffler - Blind

01 Whitewildbear - Light

 

Our twelfth voter tonight is Ansel who is behind the intriguing 'Rollin'on chrome (Wild motherf***er dub)' by Austrian hip-hop group Aphrodelics. As mentioned in the previous commentary, this has now escaped last place at least and is fighting for that top 20 scrape. 'Levo' now receives its second 12 of the night (a 12 from voter #12 is pretty cool, right Bré?) and moves up to 8th place. The silver medal for 'L'Esperanza' vaults it into the top 5, so we now go back to being unaware of the identity of two current top 5 participants. 8 pointer Craig Armstrong has quietly been making progress, after being stuck on one voter for a while - now he not far off the top 10. Julien Bracht's lead is cut down to 9, with a new immediate rival now in FC Kahuna, plus 'Winter In The Woods' re-enters the podium. It's definitely still all to play for!

I can’t begrudge you for sending Hayling Jade, especially as it was a new discovery for you, you had no way of knowing its cult status, and as I said in the other thread, it was hardly a smash hit so unless you’re in those older circles you’d have never known. I’m always happy to be reminded of it, if only Hafdís would get the attention she deserves commercially <3

Edited by gooddelta

A second 12 :cheeseblock: thank you Ansel!! I didn't really expect this to be a 'high points or nothing' type entry this time but I guess that is how it's turned out more or less :lol:

 

Aphrodelics definitely a memorable entry even if not quite a favourite.

 

(and yes, 12 from voter 12 is cool indeed x)

Hi Jade,

 

Here are my votes:

 

12 Kasbo - The Making Of A Paracosm

10 Julien Bracht - Nocturne

08 Nora Van Elken - Dire, Dire Docks

07 Faux Tales - Soar

06 FC Kahuna - Hayling (feat. Hafdis Huld)

05 Whitewildbear - Light

04 Aphrodelics - Rollin'on chrome (Wild motherf***er dub)

03 Craig Armstrong - Let’s Go Out Tonight

02 Leaving Laurel - Winter In The Woods

01 DJ Shadow - Midnight In A Perfect World

 

Cow Cow served us an emotional entry about loneliness, albeit with a bit of a kick to the production. This was courtesy of another German artist, AVAION. He currently sits just outside of the top 15. Cow's favourite of the edition was Kasbo, who now rises into the top 10 thanks to this gold medal. 10 points to Julien Bracht ensures Chez a lead of 15 points at this stage. Dobbo now re-joins the top 3 thanks to 7 points for 'Soar'. Nora Van Elken has quietly been making progress lately and is a whisker away from top 10 now, thanks to a bronze medal.

 

Aphrodelics are now out of the bottom 2, leaving Nu & Jo.Ke to take their place in 20th instead. We still await the identity of the poster behind 'Who Loves The Sun'.

some inch resting results

 

i wasn't there for the listenthrough but i'm sure everyone else was there so if everyone's saying a song is going to smash here then it's going to smash here

I think we peaked at having 12 people online during the listenthrough so a pretty big sample yeah but not quite everyone. x

Sven Väth - L'Esperanza

 

 

12. Sunlounger - Sunny Tales

10. Whitewildbear - Light

08. Kasbo - The Making Of A Paracosm

07. Nicky Elisabeth - Sun

06. Aphrodelics - Rollin'on chrome (Wild motherf***er dub)

05. Aurora B.Polaris - Into The Void (Deep Mix)

04. DJ Shadow - Midnight In A Perfect World

03. Recondite - Levo

02. Faux Tales - Soar

01. AVAION - Pieces

 

So it is Addy who received top marks from the host this time! SyncTube listeners guessed that either me or Addy had sent 'L'Esperanza' so you guys were definitely on to something here. We have a multitude of German DJs in the contest, including Sven Väth now, but I believe this is our only foreign language entry. The soft vocals are mixed with ambient, trance-meets-techno production and a summery video, filled with water and dolphins. The song missed the top 40 in the U.K. but did chart within the top 75. It deserved better! Addy performs a bit of a foot-shoot here by knocking himself out of the top 5, allowing Whitewildbear in there for the first time. 'Light' has now received FOUR silver medals but no golds yet! Addy's top marks to Sunlounger mean that Wardy is now in the top 15. We also have a new last place as these votes were generous to both Nicky Elisabeth and Aphrodelics! Nu & Jo.Ke are now right down there. The top 2 of the leaderboard are snubbed but 3rd place 'Soar' receives a top up.

21 7 Nu & Jo.Ke - Who Loves The Sun

Interestingly the Avaion song was by far the most popular with the general public with 97m Spotiplays. However I'm not surprised it isn't top 10 here tonight.

Thanks for another few points Addy (first non 12 points for ages :magic:) and a banger of an entry from you as well *.* yass at finally another taker for 'Sun' too, that really didn't deserve to be floundering in single digits.

 

Wow at how many people have been drawn to German artists for this.

Nu & Jo.Ke - Who Loves The Sun

 

 

+12: Kasbo - The Making Of A Paracosm

+10: Julien Bracht - Nocturne

+8: AVAION - Pieces

+7: Leaving Laurel - Winter In The Woods

+6: FC Kahuna - Hayling (feat. Hafdis Huld)

+5: Christian Löffler - Blind

+4: mïus - Panorama

+3: Recondite - Levo

+2: Faux Tales - Soar

+1: Nicky Elisabeth - Sun

 

Voter #15 is Juan Carlos who was behind the penultimate song in the running order! 'Who Loves The Sun' was our longest entry as it clocks in at over 9 minutes. It was also potentially the funkiest. But the lyrics paint quite a sad picture behind all that. 'Who Loves The Sun' is experiencing difficulty on the leaderboard at the moment, but there's still time for it to crack double-figures before the night is out. Juan's 12 this time goes to Kasbo, which strengthens its chances at a top 10 finish. These votes are a lot kinder to the contenders than the last, as Julien receives a silver medal (extending that lead in 1st to 19 points!), FC Kahuna get 6, Leaving Laurel 7 and Faux Tales 2 - the latter two are currently tied in 3rd place. Juan's own bronze goes to AVAION, who is fighting for a spot in the top 15.

Thanks Juan as well, getting a few more lower points now. 'Who Loves The Sun' was quite close to my votes so a shame to see that taking over in last place as well D:

 

Julien with a decent lead we love to see.

Yeah, I was the one who submitted "Who Loves The Sun" and I think some of you may have guessed that earlier if you checked my last.fm account. :kink:

 

Anyway, the way I found out this song is interesting to be honest. I was at the gym and while I was taking a shower after I finished my training, this song was being played there. I liked what I was listening to, so I shazamed it because I have no idea who were behind the track. That said, thanks to the ones who liked the track and gave votes to it so far, although I'm currently in the last place.

Good evening,

 

If you have received this PM then I currently await your votes in the Club Bizarre: Chill Out II edition.

 

The deadline is 26th October 23:59 BST, so a little over 24 hours.

 

Please send them over before then to avoid any deductions for your entry!

 

Many thanks,

 

Jade ^_^

:hi:

 

Sorry for the delay!

Next up is Kath who is behind 'Blind' by German DJ Christian Löffler, who describes his sound as the mixture of a gloomy spirit with a warm sincerity. I'm surprised to see this one in the bottom 5 right now, as its second biggest fan so far! Kath rallies big support behind 'Nocturne' which has become the first entry to smash past triple figures. If Chez keeps up this momentum until the end and seals the win, then he would eclipse mine and Mattias' 2 Club Bizarre wins and would only be behind Dobbo's 4 to date. There's still time for a late snatch, but Julien is looking pretty strong at the moment with a 25 point lead. He has 2 gold medals and 5 silvers to date. Kath's 10 points to 'Levo' pushes that up to 7th place and the bronze medal for Kaskade means that is out of the bottom 3 now. We actually have an updated last place again as Nicky Elisabeth slips back down there with 13 points. A 6 point boost for FC Kahuna ensures that 'Hayling' is still the closest competition to Julien Bracht at the moment.

Thanks Kath for another medal position though *.* and now up to a new high on the leaderboard I think, woo ~ + the taste pushing Julien further into the lead
