Spotify playlist:

Ooh I spy two of my song contest alumni and they're next to each other *.* Kraftwerk are one of my all-time favourite acts so pleased to see them getting a second outing this year, following my 100th anniversary pick for BJSC, 'Europe Endless'. I also sent Autechre to the Best Song Contest In The World... Ever before, they're one of the first acts to come to mind when I think of weird electronic music, so a great choice for this theme.

This looks right up my street so looking forward to giving these a listen 🥰

Not familiar with any of these artists other than my own and Kraftwerk. Giving it a quick listen through now as very curious to see just how weird everyone went and the answer is VERY. 🫨

Figured this is gonna be a loooong ride.

Quite a few names I recognise from that list! I had Autechre down as a potential and had Blawan once down for another contest a few years back.

Very much looking forward to hearing the Squarepusher song as the previous entry of his way back in volume 4 is one of my all-time fave discoveries from this contest and certainly fits the bill here too!

Also somewhat surprised there are 'only' 4 10+ minute songs in total as this theme more than any other previous lends itself to such a feature.

This is going to get weird.

I think I already know 11 of these (including my own) - it really was a theme that’s up my street!

I almost sent Blawan’s newest track for this lol

Recognizing quite a few artists, excited to listen to this in full. Caterina Barbieri, Kraftwerk and Autechre closing this is unfair to the rest of us x

oooh, I was fully expecting Venetian Snares to finally make an appearance on BuzzJack - the high end Samsung to Aphex Twin's iPhone, but not to be!

Heard quite a few artists here but looks like a good selection of new discoveries for me.

Look forward to blasting this playlist on my night shift.

I’ve sent Venetian Snares to a couple of contests(?) before I believe!

Thumbs up to this playlist

I just knew someone would send Autechre here! Down for hearing another song from them anyway, a couple of other familiar / semi-obvious names too but mostly new to me and I don't think I have heard any of the songs. There is one artist here who I stumbled across while looking for an entry but the song here isn't the one I listened to, just as well I didn't send that.

Love that this of all themes has attracted a record number of entries *.*

(also yes Leww sent Venetian Snares to a previous Club Bizarre and to one of the Halloween BJSC spinoffs!)

(aside: just noticed the title of the Spotify playlist says Unknown Pleasures rather than Club Bizarre x)

oh my at the playlist being nearly 3 hours long, better not dawdle too much with starting the listenthrough whenever we do that

Blimey I'm not even 10 songs in and I already know this is gonna be a complete nightmare to whittle down and sort my votes! A very pleasurable nightmare though, if you will 😂

you saw nothing x

Listened through earlier and, as much as I like a lot of the songs individually, it’s quite a lot to do in one sitting. Think I’m going to try a few more listens in batches of 10-15 or so.

Not sure if I’ve had a bit of a mis-step with my entry. I won’t say why as I don’t want to give away which mine is.
