ty for the submissions

you probably got a little too much compensation in the Group E round for lack of opportunity to revert to the mean - pr'olly should have been, idk, 2.4 instead of 3. otoh, I really appreciate being forced to listen to the Pete Da Zouk track

however

ty, also for the submission - the game doesn't exist without the submitters and particularly those who aren't dedicated to second guessing the OP/mod-s favourite music - so there's nothing to worry about in submitting things which don't 'score high'.

loud is good - just not cliched 'metal'ly loud (for me at least). But that Ecuadorian song is excellent and I'm going to listen to more things by them. Maybe I was a little harsh on the Kandia track. I listened to it again today and it's not terrible. But not near the top 5 in that cat . + a hard furrow to plough with the Brazilian track - just so many better options imo

And all this pandering talk is BS. Why would I submit folk, metal, classic rock etc to you, stuff you (almost) caregorically hate, when I can submit it to someone who appreciates it? The mod will put time and effort into listening to the song and if you assume others will you're almost always wrong, especially if your song got a low score. The only reason not to consider the taste of the mod is if you don't want to spend the time or have a narrow taste yourself. Which is fine, but a big LOL at discouraging people who think spending that time is part of what makes the game fun.

It wasn't directed specifically towards you, but at the general attitude that "pandering" is bad. I understand that's LKJ's view because he only listens to country, but to me the objective is to submit music the mod hasn't heard and likes.

bumping some maybe underappreciated tracks

Kaidus
chose: Molotov - Gimme tha Power [Mexico]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfmY9Wlxx0o

this is really good & everyone should listen to it

Willi chose: Magasco - Kumba Market [Cameroon]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syPtsh-r60g

I do really like IBD's Mathematik de Petit Pays track (that was #1), but Kumba Market stands the test of repeated plays, which I worried it woudn't

This Chile x Spain group really was very, very good.

I think soma's song was excellent, but I don't regret it coming in 7th. All of the top 7 should be listened to

Mayyyybbbeeee I'd bump

soah chose: Ska-P - Mestizaje [Spain]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13EGZHi6BvY

up a notch and IBD down a level

If you're in the US you'll find anti-fascist songs are barred for you. Write to your congress-critter.

a place, but it's not an absolutely essential listen

otoh I love both the Mme K track that I had as #2 and the Los Smokings at #1. But - hey - the submitters have GOAT taste
