January 29, 20232 yr This isn't going quite as badly as I feared at the moment, which is a nice surprise.
January 29, 20232 yr Ooh thanks for my highest set of points so far, Rich :wub: I really liked the trance-y sound of yours.

I do like a good hard drop sometimes, but I just loved the Asian traditional instruments combined with modern EDM, it's what I really look for in world dance and the visuals are very cool. Very grateful for the big scores so far, let's see if this can keep up x My votes bring us up to the halfway point and we have a new leader although it is still so close with just five points separating the top 5 that anything can happen. Uganda next, time to find out who Bre's enemy is as we unmask Nihiloxica...
January 29, 20232 yr Ooh two silvers in a row, thanks Chez :wub: would not have called that one as you :o I think it was a bit too abrasive for me but, as a result, it definitely stood out!
January 29, 20232 yr Author Nihiloxica - Black Kaveera (pq & Ekhe's Recycle) - King Rollo _-5UYf1oKOI When choosing which song to send to the contest, I whittled it down to two, the song by Nihiloxica I entered and Kunitamale by Aero Manyelo so when the songs were revealed, I was pleased to see someone else had entered the latter and that's the one that gets my 12 points. Here is my vote: 12pts - Aero Manyelo featuring Thee Suka - Kunitamale 10 - Sun-EL Musician featuring Azana - Uhuru 8 - Logic Lost - Blunt Force Trauma 7 - Wukong - Legend Of Wong Fei Hung: Rebirth 6 - DNGDNGDNG - Hiperbórea 5 - Karyendasoul featuring Ami Faku - Umthandazo 4 - Obeidmusic & Pamela Antoun - 3ala bali 3 - Yellow Magic Orchestra - Rydeen 2 - Aspara - Terminal 1 - Toriena - C.Q.C 57; Sun-EL Musician Feat.

Sara Fajira – LATHI 35; TORIENA - C.Q.C (Cody) 35; Aero Manyelo feat. Thee Suka – Kunitamale 28; Nihiloxica - Black Kaveera (pq & Ekhe's Recycle) (King Rollo) 23; Laur - Sound Chimera (Iz~) 20; Cosmic Armchair – Conversation (gooddelta) 18; Ganzi Mdudu - Chafu Pozi 16; Aspara – Terminal 15; Aiobahn x Phritz feat. Yaginuma Kana – Grayscale (Dan) 14; DNGDNGDNG - Hiperbórea 07; Mr. Raoul K - Sene Kela (feat. Sona Diabaté) [Mr. Raoul K & Laolu Version] (X leww X) 03; Hoàng Thùy Linh - See Tình (Cukak Remix) (All★bySmashMouth) It was Rollo who sent Nihiloxica, and he was clearly on the same wavelength as quite a few here, weirdly enough this was a remix rather than the original, and I haven't yet heard that but this one certainly brings the chaotic drum energy (though it's not quite the most chaotic African entry x). Nihiloxica hasn't quite lived up to the winning contender talk so far, but there's still time, he does give some proper Afro support though as Uhuru takes the lead with Umthandazo close behind and there's a bit of a boost to Kunitamale x A swerve to Colombia now for the first of our two South American entries, who sent Funk Tribu...
January 29, 20232 yr Nihiloxica was an excellent entry! Shame it's only mid-table on the results as it should be right up the top imo.
January 29, 20232 yr Yes, I was hoping it would be doing a bit better at this stage. Thanks to all those who have given points to my song so far.
January 29, 20232 yr Liked the Nihiloxica song a lot! Thank you Rollo for the points, also. ^_^ Just realised that I share the same 12 as our hosts, happy to see Logic Lost up to 3rd now *.*

Sona Diabaté) [Mr. Raoul K & Laolu Version] (X leww X) 03; Hoàng Thùy Linh - See Tình (Cukak Remix) (All★bySmashMouth) A fine piece of trance sent by our resident Blind Doctor and one that has done pretty well thus far. Uhuru maintains a decent lead with another good points haul with some gaps in points starting to form (at all ends of the scoreboard oops x) Indonesia now, let us unmask Logic Lost shush Bre some people may not know
January 29, 20232 yr Oh I had convinced myself it was Chez himself that cruelly stole Nihiloxica from me :kink: Rollo is my mortal enemy instead -_- seriously though it was at least a different version to the one I tried to send myself so was still partly new to me and I did think it was a very good remix! Not sure I quite like it as much as the original but I'm not mad. I'm a little mad
January 29, 20232 yr Oh wow Yellow Magic Orchestra up to 3rd :o thank you very much for 10 points, Doctor B :heart: I gave Funk Tribu a silver so an exact point swap, fantastic stuff.
January 29, 20232 yr I don't know why but I had it in my head that Kath was behind Funk Tribu (possibly because the artwork seemed familiar - TDJ also releases on the same label)
January 29, 20232 yr Doctor Blind serving a banger as Doctor Blind is wont to do :music: Ooh the top 5 looks great now! (Sorry Chez but WUKONG wasn't fully for me either but yes a memorable one x)

Not sure I quite like it as much as the original but I'm not mad. I'm a little mad I found the remix on a random Spotify African dance playlist. I didn't listen to the original until you mentioned it in the voting thread. I think I still prefer the remix.

Sona Diabaté) [Mr. Raoul K & Laolu Version] (X leww X) 03; Hoàng Thùy Linh - See Tình (Cukak Remix) (All★bySmashMouth) Another anonymous contest, another easy uhsting unmasking due to him charting this :kink: I can't be mad though, this brutal piece of IDM really is exactly what it's title says, but in a good way for me at least x uhsting initially changed entries to something more accessible from Japan before I lightly prodded him to keep it for variety, I expect credit if this does end up keeping it's performance now B-) uhsting's votes are highly afro-flavoured and ensure the all-SA top 2 remains. Now, what was that Japanese entry I missed earlier...
January 29, 20232 yr I'll forgive you for pushing me out of the top 3 as your entry is my favourite in this edition, 'Blunt Force Trauma' really blew me away :wub:

Hooray for more diversity nonetheless *. Dobbo's entry is a classic slow building, subtle house song and also sounds quite like something that could be entered to a lot of these. His votes don't favour a lot of the contenders but allows Yellow Magic Orchestra to close the gap a bit. Our final stop in Indonesia is with a certain Weird Genius...
