October 22, 2024Oct 22 Hopefully not a terrible draw for me in semi 2 just waiting to be dragged again by the cheapness police
October 22, 2024Oct 22 also my dumb ass is never reading this thread immediately after waking up bc I saw “Demi One and Semi Sue omggggg I love” and thought it was actually a song in the contest 🫠
October 22, 2024Oct 22 it wasn't my fault he was trapped in a staff meeting for work when confirmations were opened x
October 22, 2024Oct 22 Demi One and Semi Sue *.* Amazing commitment to the theme, That doesn't mean Monstro Elisasue is going to make an appearance in the final does it? :mellow: :o Not often I know the entries beforehand, but I will throw some immediate hype to Seyetana, although also some annoyance as I was gonna go for that same artist next month! :lol: I've been doing a deep dive into Godspeed You! Black Emperor's back catalogue as it's quite unthinkable I don't really know a lot from them when they are pioneers of post rock, their most recent album was really good and this was a highlight from it, hopefully will be ok without my help x Gone just a tad cheap this time (especially if you listen to 6Music), but this was a real song of the year contender and very different to his usual sound.

I've started doing some of the same! Some of their 20-minute tracks are of the sort where one listen just blows me away ('Storm') and I need some time to digest it so it might take me a while. Newest album is all incredible, I wouldn't normally think to make an entry out of this kind of thing but while going through the album I took a look at my back catalogue and realised I hadn't sent any post-rock at all and that's something that really needed to change given how often they're among my favourite entries. Father John Misty is a name I've heard a lot myself and always thought I should give a listen to but never actually done so really interested to hear yours.
October 22, 2024Oct 22 Blank & Jones is fab to see. Hope to make some more discoveries this month. ^_^
October 22, 2024Oct 22 I only know Father John Misty from that one Lana Del Rey collab but I'm surprised I haven't seen that name in the contest until now
October 22, 2024Oct 22 To no surprise I have literally never heard of the film (?) this contest is themed after :kink: I was ill for the whole of the confirmations week and really not in the mood to look for a new song for this so I've finally sent my ambient jazz potential that I've mentioned toying with the idea of sending a few times over the years (I looked it up earlier and the Reddit post that I discovered it from was in April 2018 so I've been going back to it every now and then for nearly 6 and a half years!) - must be in the running for the lowest BPM BJSC entry ever x Think there's a non-zero chance this song alienates literally everyone but I find it a really compellingly moody listen, I hope the fact I've kept it in my back pocket for so long without forgetting about it has to mean something. Otherwise it's back to back DNQs at long last! Think I'd rather have been in the other semi again ngl but it doesn't look quite as polarised as last month. Cool to see 2 Persephonia alumni being wheeled out for a second entry this month (Ela Minus and Sampa The Great) - I have already heard the Sampa song as I listened to her album, but I didn't peg that song as an initial highlight, hopefully might make more impact on me this time around! I think the only other songs I've heard are the usual handful that were already in PJSC, none of which I voted for or remember at all :ph34r: obvz I already stan Pestolia from the title alone ~ So I guess I'm doing semi 2 on SyncTube today unless anyone wants to interject to do semi 1? x
October 22, 2024Oct 22 Blank&Jones :wub: Also Kath, I was going to be actually mad if you ended up not sending Izzy again :kink:
October 22, 2024Oct 22 Semi 2 would be great today! (Just enough time to watch Drag Duel first :lol: I mean the half of it, why are these episodes so f-ing long) Edited October 22, 2024Oct 22 by FrankLuck
October 22, 2024Oct 22 I haven’t watched the movie yet but somehow in my head I’ve convinced myself that CXLOE’s ‘Shapeshifter’ fits the theme :lol:
October 22, 2024Oct 22 https://sync-tube.de/room/ApAM3t-I Semi 2 coming up from not too long after 8pm then :jump:
October 22, 2024Oct 22 Looking forward to diving in, and interesting to see TWO of my previous PJSC entries here.....
October 22, 2024Oct 22 my semi looking super strong! Joanna Newsom, Caribou, Father John Misty and Djrum :wub: going to be hard to choose a 12 it seems ~ excited to listen to that Godspeed song from semi 2, too, I presume it's from the new album of which I am yet to hear. I'm not super keen on the Geordie Greep solo record tbqh but it's still nice to see him pop up as I am a big black midi fan :heart: also :o @ Editors showing up here - fun fact I quite often see a few members of the band drinking in my local craft beer bar :D
October 22, 2024Oct 22 Looking forward to diving in, and interesting to see TWO of my previous PJSC entries here..... I wonder where your 18 is going, Disco Witch!
