Buzzjack Mountain deserves a mention.

Danælanda was nice back in the day, but by now Danævia must have completed more contests, is that right @danG? I also like Herbilore and it's become quite the household name amongst BJSC listeners now.

Not really a relevent post for this week's thread, but can someone tell me if there is a BuzzJack thread that exists somewhere for songs/hits not currently on streaming platforms?

Also if anyone thinks it is unfair having a song with the original artist credited... go back to the very first SoundClash in this series to be reminded that it was the same for Queen.

This could resurface in 2025...

So this new part of the forum confuses me slightly as to what its intended purpose is. It seems that anything uploaded to the forum as media (image, video, file) that isn't an embed, goes into some sort of library of attachments I guess in the hope that it's easy to find an attachment if you need to use one again in the future? It doesn't seem to offer much value as a feature as far as I can tell so far, and I'm concerned that this number of attachments could grow significantly for some people in a short space of time and potentially use up valuable server storage. What are your thoughts? Should all external media types be stored on the server like this for the unlikely future use?
