Ah, is that what it is, makes sense 😆

This description instantly reminded me of the music one of my in-person friends listens to, with screamed lyrics such as 'people equal sh!t' and the like. 😅 It goes with his whole aesthetic and nihilistic viewpoints but yeah, I can only take that in small doses when it gets so extreme tbh. But I do enjoy highly abstract electronic music that seems to require a higher level of consciousness! 😅 hehe

Ooh congrats Lewis, great winner there! Gave it four points and enjoyed it quite a lot. Dan's entry was very intriguing too, and the Visage track was 14th in my rankings. Thanks to DrB for all your hosting magic! 🪄

I'm sorry about your position this time round but it doesn't have to only be fun if you're doing well ❤️ Jeez, I did very poorly this time too, it's my worst ever position in CB... and this sounds weird maybe but I almost wish I would've been last instead of you as it doesn't seem to affect me badly at all (I've come last a small handful of times in other contests). Although when I DNQ'd in the last BJSC I was definitely very disappointed, it did kinda sting... I remember the moment I found out, I was in the train station 😆 But still, it didn't stay with me for long. And maybe it could be the same for you? idk tho xo It's weird but I think it's partly because even though I tend to be quite engaged following along and posting, I also feel a sense of detachment from these contests in a way. It's interesting 🤔

If you understand this you're a cool person and I give you flowers

Un-cer-tain-ty excites mee! Baby!! Who knows what's going to happen? Lottery or car crash? Or you join a cult! Probably maybe, possibly love (Possibly!)

Yep, I had a look at it already and I'm planning to (Had to come catch up due to having been busy typing a post elsewhere on the site that took way too long to type and is probably too long even after I was editing it meticulously for quite a while 😆 I can't help it!)

I mostly just love to immerse myself in music and sound for what it is. I'm an audiophile. But ofc there's also the emotional expression side of it which I also love. I don't feel like I'd fit neatly into any 'subculture' or whatever, BUT I am ofc drawn to some things more than others, and I've begun to make some correlations, such as: My music taste is very varied / slightly all over the place and I still get very excited about discovering new interesting stuff. Correlates with open-mindedness and tendencies towards exploration / idea-gathering. I'm also pretty 'loose' in terms of identity, as in I don't have a strong one. 😅 I do listen to more so-called 'alternative' music than pop music, although I do listen to pop too. The alt. bit probably correlates with me generally being or feeling on the outskirts of a lot of mainstream things or trends, I can be quite 'behind' with that, and often I just have no interest. I really don't deliberately reject it, but I often don't naturally blend well with it. As always, with exceptions. 😉 Sometimes when I listen to poppier music, I feel things I'm not necessarily used to feeling and it perks me up in unexpected ways. I also listen to quite a lot of atmospheric, ambient, experimental and at times 'abstract' music. I think that correlates insofar as I'm someone who enjoys my peace and quiet, setting a mood or atmosphere, to be left alone regularly to mind my own business lol, and I do also meditate when I can be bothered. I'm also very curious, and interested in unique viewpoints.

I want ART, you know? That was art. My brain turns slightly into mush when I listen to it but the track just felt like a fresh experience. 😅 (Not that I've never heard any music like that before but y'know)

Jeez, 'Anticipate' is really low right now, but sharing the number of points with me who gave it 12 haha. I kinda had some entry envy tbh, it was a very interesting and slightly ~bizarre~ entry. I was definitely intrigued and mesmerized, that's why I still get excited about music and discovering music.

That was a very cool entry, Jade! And one that I think could've gone up in my affections even more with a few more listens tbh (I'll probably keep listening to it from time to time ❤️). Thanks for the points too!

Predicting that Bré is behind my 12 (Nazar - Anticipate)

gooddelta's was 11th for me! (Also the highest ranked song in my 'maybe' pile 🤭)

6 wins? Wow! Dobbo has won nearly 20% of the contests 😅 Like 18%
