Sona Diabaté) [Mr. Raoul K & Laolu Version] 02; Aspara – Terminal 01; Hoàng Thùy Linh - See Tình (Cukak Remix) Also serving up chaotic vibes was Cody with this song certainly cramming a lot of ideas into it's short runtime, some could call it a mess, but I call it art x He stays loyal to most of his fellow Asian entries and ensures a new leader in WUKONG, though Monolithic is still not far behind. Just the one song yet to gain points as well x Our last stop in Japan will be Yellow Magic Orchestra
January 29, 20232 yr I wasn't sure about the TORIENA song at first but I really warmed to it by the end! An easy standout ^_^

Sona Diabaté) [Mr. Raoul K & Laolu Version] 02; Aspara – Terminal 02; Hoàng Thùy Linh - See Tình (Cukak Remix) So it was Jade that sent the retro pick in another one of my contests, and a significantly timed one as sadly one of the members passed away recently. I'd never heard of them before but this synthy piece of glory was wonderful and does really make me want to check out more given how influential Japan were in the early synth music scene. Her votes put Monolithic back on top but C.Q.C are still in this. Now we leave Japan, we await to see if this Asian domination will remain. Our next country will be Vietnam, who sent Hoàng Thùy Linh
January 29, 20232 yr at least IZ has some taste, although if my very Japanese entry didn't have Iz appeal I'd be very worried really great entry from yourself too of course
January 29, 20232 yr It was quite spooky as I confirmed Yellow Magic Orchestra and then saw on Reddit just a couple of hours later that member Yukihiro Takahashi had died D: so an unintentional tribute, RIP. Soooo I may have been playing dumb a bit on SyncTube when one of their other songs was played earlier :kink: their style really sounds proto-Kraftwerk which is huge praise, need to check out more :wub: Thank you for the points so far Dan, Wardy and Iz! Particularly the former for a medal ^_^
January 29, 20232 yr I did already edit my post to acknowledge that Monolithic was born in Japan Wardy! Just seems he primarily identifies as American is all xx I did really like your entry anyway whether or not it fits the theme properly :kink: Also a nice one from Lewis + excellent entry from Jade <3 though that really is quite a spooky coincidence re the timing of Yukihiro's death (RIP). Also further educated in YMO with another song played on SyncTube just now of course!

His votes ensure WUKONG is back ahead, with Uhuru being the first African entry to potentially challenge. Next up, our most northerly African nation (or nations in this case), who sent Mr Raoul K
January 29, 20232 yr Great retro pick Jade, lovely to see such an influential band be represented here
January 29, 20232 yr Really liked Rydeen, I hadn't heard of the band before but will have to check them out! Technically speaking AllStar isn't in last place as there's one song still on zero points :kink:
January 29, 20232 yr Thank you for the points All★bySmashMouth! I was looking forward to hearing more from Hoàng Thùy Linh based on what has been sent to BJSC ('Bánh Trôi Nước' was my favourite entry in its year) and this was another pretty good song.
January 29, 20232 yr Oh yes this is the debut entry for the poster formerly known as FM11 indeed. Welcome x This one wasn't nearly as much to my taste as Hoàng's BJSC entries though :ph34r:

His votes don't change things hugely at the top apart, but Monolithic continues to benefit and a second 12 for Logic Lost sees them rise up, and everyone has points now yay! Off for our first of two stops at Singapore next, with the wonderfully named Cosmic Armchair
January 29, 20232 yr Ooh a nice comeback entry from Leww, good to hear from Laolu again. Singapore being further north than the East African countries is blowing my mind a bit x The results at the moment are quite mixed compared to my taste but a good winner at the moment at least!

One of them being next, our second entry to Singapore, the slightly more upbeat WUKONG
