Posted June 1Jun 1 Who has the fanciest house? All to be revealed shortly as we begin the house viewing.
June 1Jun 1 Author We will commence with the votes from the host. I sent one of my faves of the last couple of years 'On My Body' from California-based producer Carl Chaste who teamed up with the more familiar name The Magician. Time will tell how this does for me tonight although I having added up the scores already know the answer to that.+12 Disco's Over - Sojourn+10 Crazy P - Eruption+08 The MFA - The Difference It Makes+07 St Germain - Rose Rouge+06 Max Dean, Locky & Luke Dean - Curveball+05 Rivo - Stay Here+04 Hardwell - Retrograde (Drumstone Remix)+03 TCTS & Jem Cooke - Masquerade+02 Monolink - Turning Away (Parra for Cuva Remix)+01 Yotto (feat.

June 1Jun 1 Was half expecting Carl Chaste to be Snake's entry as it's got a very low view/subscriber count on YouTube although I see it's quite a bit higher on Spotify, a pretty solid host entry there anyway.Loved both Mangø and Jim's picks, some impressive foresight from the latter - did you know about the 'Can't Decide' snippet being viral or was that as out of nowhere to you as to everyone else? xI have relatively low expectations for my entry again which may or may not be vindicated by the results so far x
June 1Jun 1 Thanks Mango and host Dan for the points so far - 'Curveball' stood out to me towards the end of NMF one week, so I put it in my chart, and then it occurred to me it was ideal for this contest so have since withdrawn it from them. I had no idea of any online hype building for 'Can't Decide' (I even sent my votes here before it was released), but happy to have come up somewhat ahead of the 'curve' on these artists!
June 1Jun 1 Author Dobbo was behind the festival house pick from a decade ago which was my personal pick of the contest, but can he get yet another contest win with it?12 TCTS & Jem Cooke - Masquerade10 Starchaser - Love Will Set You Free (Jambe Myth)08 Derrick May - Strings Of Life07 Cut La Roc - Freeze06 Felix - It Will Make Me Crazy05 Hardwell - Retrograde (Drumstone Remix)04 The MFA - The Difference It Makes03 Nause & Lasse Holm - Canelloni Macaroni02 Loukeman - Took A Turn01 St Germain - Rose RougeScene brought something a bit different to the contest with the sole rep for bass house, one of the newer house subgenera to emerge.12 Hardwell - Retrograde (Drumstone Remix)10 St Germain - Rose Rouge8 Nicole Manzo - Freaky 7 Rivo - Stay Here6 Carl Chaste & The Magician (feat.

He was behind the minor 2002 chart hit from Starchaser which alas will now see a 33% point deduction.

June 1Jun 1 Ah Snake not going down the obscure route this time then ~ (shockah @ him not voting anyway)'Fake & Unholy' being the last on 0 is not it, another good tune there x
June 1Jun 1 Author King Rollo perhaps unsurprisingly has the oldest house, however it is still in good shape with Derrick May doing well tonight so far with the sole 80s offering 'Strings Of Life'Thanks to Dan for hosting this celebration of house music. I couldn't find room in my vote for Duke Dumont, Habstrakt or Call Super. These were my top 10:12pts - Crazy P - Eruption10 - Disco's Over - Sojourn8 - Nause and Lasse Holm - Canelloni Macaroni7 - Rivo - Stay Here6 - TCTS & Jem Cooke - Masquerade5 - The MFA - The Difference It Makes4 - Yotto featuring Moone - Hollow3 - Starchaser - Love Will Set You Free2 - St Germain - Rose Rouge1 - Max Dean, Locky & Luke Dean - Curveballgooddelta was behind 'Canelloni Macaroni', itself also an 80s song albeit given the house remix treatment this year. perhaps best enjoyed with an espresso macchiato macchiato macchiato. a rent discount from this landlord incoming next quarter anyhow as Carl Chaste grabs top points!12: Carl Chaste & The Magician (feat.

June 1Jun 1 Thanks Lewis, Julian, Rollo and Rich for those points. Feels like a while since I've listened to some of these songs, will relisten to some of the frontrunners I didn't vote for later on to see if they were ones I considered.
June 1Jun 1 'Strings Of Life' one of two songs I was hearing the original of for the first time being more familiar with a cover version, both were good discoveries x
June 1Jun 1 I thought I'd send a novelty-ish entry because Club is a very serious business usually!Lasse Holm represented Sweden in Eurovision 1986 and wrote loads of 80s schlager classics, including the original of this which Nause (who I mistakenly thought had a small hit here with Made Of) recently remixed. It's obviously cheesy but to me it was too charming not to share!Thank you to the two voters so far.And to our esteemed host for the wonderful discovery, by far my favourite of this edition as I already knew my 10, 8 and 7 pointers.
June 1Jun 1 Author uhsting goes for Rivo, a French DJ whose Afro House remix of Disclosure's 'You & Me' was a big hit last year - this track saw him go down a more melodic/progressive house direction which I'm more here for anyhowhi flops12: Duke Dumont & Panama - All My Life10: Nicole Manzo - Freaky8: Floorplan & Honey Dijon - Fake & Unholy7: TCTS & Jem Cooke - Masquerade6: Cut La Roc - Freeze5: Disco's Over - Sojourn4: The MFA - The Difference It Makes3: Felix - It Will Make Me Crazy2: Monolink - Turning Away (Parra for Cuva Remix)1: Starchaser - Love Will Set You Free (Jambe Myth)bye flopsHerbs goes for one of the more recognisable names of the contest in Duke Dumont, albeit with one of his more recent singles that may well have passed many of the voters by - some more big points to the host entry incoming too.
