Re: MOISANTIA ~~~ Your opinions needed... ~~~

I'd be interested in both a private and a public NF

+1

Re: MOISANTIA ~~~ Your opinions needed... ~~~

Thanks for all the feedback so far (yes, even you [MENTION=8036]Salmon[/MENTION]). I'm encouraged to see the support for an NF, be it public or private. I'll probably make a decision over the next couple of days as to what route I take, so if you are interested in helping out with a potential NF, keep posting in here

P.S. The recap has already been created...

Re: MOISANTIA ~~~ Your opinions needed... ~~~

More K-pop! Wait, what was the question again?

 

[Salmon]

Re: MOISANTIA ~~~ Your opinions needed... ~~~

Hah, more seriously, I'd also suggest a public NF. A private one wouldn't be bad either

 

[theditz83]

Re: MOISANTIA ~~~ Your opinions needed... ~~~

So I've decided to hold a public NF to help select the song for 113

6 potential entries have already been selected from 5 countries, including one previous representative! I'll post the NF as soon as the winner of NSC 112 is known, and I hope that you'll all help to select our next entry.

Re: MOISANTIA ~~~ NSC 113 6-SONG NF - VOTING DDL 17th AUG 23:59CET ~~~

Thanks to those that voted for Idina Menzel and "I Stand" in NSC 112, although it's clear that it wasn't a popular choice.

After 20 editions with only 1 top 10 finish (Hillsong United), I have decided to change the way that Moisantia selects its entries. Every edition from now on, I will hold a national final with 6 potential entries for each edition. Every third edition (so for XX5, XX8 and XX1), there will be a special themed NF with a genre or topic that is especially close to my heart, and only every anniversary edition (XX2) will I go for an internal selection.

The power is in your hands, and it's really important that as many people as possible help me out and vote. For that reason, I'll ensure that I create a recap for each NF to make voting as quick as possible for you all.

So without further ado, here is my NF for NSC 113 - 6 songs, with only 1 winner... who will it be?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MOISANTIA'S NSC 113 NF

SONG 1: GEO DA SILVA & JACK MAZZONI - BOOMA YEE

I was first introduced to this song when I purchased a dance compilation on holiday in Lanzarote. I've always made a point of buying at least one CD compilation on holiday so that every time I hear any of the songs from it, I am reminded of the happy sunny memories. This track was easily my favourite from this holiday, with its irresistible combination of that accordion hook and that dance routine!

SONG 2: NEON JUNGLE - LOUDER

A previous NF participant for (Braveheart took part in my 106 NF finishing 4th), "Louder" is Neon Jungle's 4th single and is the first down-tempo track that they have released. The driving drum-beats and anthemic chorus make for a very different sounding track from their previous dance-styled singles.

SONG 3: DAVID GUETTA ft. SAM MARTIN - LOVERS ON THE SUN

David Guetta is back with another massive anthem, just in time for his open-air gig at Bellahouston Park, Glasgow this coming Saturday (which I have tickets for ). "Lovers On The Sun" follows up "Shot Me Down" and "Bad" and continues the new, more electro sound for Guetta as he teams up with US vocalist Sam Martin who brings a unique country & western vibe to proceedings. I like to think of this as Guetta's answer to "Wake Me Up" by Avicii in a sense...

SONG 4: CHERYL COLE - CRAZY STUPID LOVE (ft. Tinie Tempah)

The return of the most successful solo member of Girls Aloud, Cheryl Cole has once again found a very catchy and hook-laden pop track for her comeback. She may never win any prizes for the quality of her vocals, but you can't deny the energy that she puts into her performances. This one will probably be a love it or hate it kind of track, with a pretty odd little sax interlude running through it, but I personalyl love it!

SONG 5: VIRGINIA LABUAT - EIGHTEEN

I have only recently discovered Virginia while I was researched artists from Andalucía for WorldVision, and what a pleasant surprise it was to find a Spanish artist of this style. Many of her retro styled songs bring to mind US jazz and soul singers of the early 20th century, but the self-penned "Eighteen" is a gentle and sincere acoustic ballad that showcases Virginia's pure vocals perfectly. She actually reminds me a little of Ellen Benedicktson from this year's Melodifestivalen in this track...

SONG 6: R.I.O. ft. U-JEAN - ONE IN A MILLION

I have always enjoyed R.I.O. ft. U-Jean's songs, but they have been little more than background noise (for want of a better word). "One In A Million" is the first track where I finally feel that the promise of a massive anthem has finally been realised. U-Jean's soulful vocals build you gradually into a big-room synth hook before that massive beat drop kicks in. This is classic and has quickly become a summer favourite of mine!

YouTube has sent me a warning email that the recap vid is blocked globally due to 5 copyright claims. However, I can still play it above... just giving you prior warning in case it vanishes over the next couple of days. So much for my idea that leaving the videos as unlisted would avoid any copyright claims...

@pjelacki @Salmon @anselm @Tinchey @Steffan + anyone else that was interested - don't forget to vote kthx
