Multi-Artist Hidden Gem Sync Listen - 3rd Feb, 8:05pm - LIVE THREAD

[RJN]

As mentioned in planning thread:

Anyone who was interested could submit 1-3 hidden gems from a well-known artist to me, which I will then compile into a playlist. It would be a chance to show off some less known faves that are too well-known to really be good for ASFM.

I was thinking next Wednesday, February 3, but it could be any other Wednesday or Sunday really

[Iguana]

This is a great idea and I will be sending my selection when I've decided which ones to submit

 

[Beverley]

I shall have a think, darling!

 

[jivafox]

YES!

 

[Berly]

Do our three need to be the same artist?

 

[RJN]

Do our three need to be the same artist?

No! It can be if you want, but also could be 3 different artists

 

[Jark]

omg. I need to think HARD.

 

[Jark]

so, sultry gems that are somewhat deep cut-esque but still too famous for ASFM? this criteria has me all nervous. I'll totally fuck it up.

 

[RJN]

Oh yeah me too. I only have 1 decided, and its from an artist that I'm not even a major fan of and I've never posted on here about

 

[Pipo]

I have a couple of questions. Can it be material from an artist where we've had a sync listen before?
Could it be b-sides, remixes, demos or does it have to be officially released material?

 

[BoysForSeles]

I’m responding as one of the “anyone else” contingent (do we have to sit near the back?) and think this sounds good. I’ve thought of three already and if you don’t like them then you’re all wrong. In advance.

Yes to all of that! As long as its available on Youtube. Which reminds me that I'm gonna need someone in the UK to make sure nothing is geo-blocked before it starts

That wasn't meant to sound bitchy. But yes you can sit in the back actually

 

[BoysForSeles]

Do you just want song titles and artist or should we send you the links too?

 

[RJN]

Links if you can, to avoid me choosing something geo-blocked

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Spotify or YouTube?

 

[RJN]

Spotify or YouTube?

Youtube, so we can include remixes or b-sides if wanted

 

[RJN]

Since nobody seemed to object to the day, can one of the mods add this to the schedule?

@Soldi @Iguana @Floppet @VoR @ButterTart @The Sexual Goose

Done!

 

[RJN]

Thank you!

 

[Berly]

I’ve thought of one

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I've submitted two so far and I'm very proud of my choices. I know I have a third one in me though and am still thinking.

Very excited to hear what everyone else is bringing to the table.

 

[jivafox]

Is there a deadline you need the links by?

 

[RJN]

Midnight Tuesday night, February 2, London time, works

 

[Berly]

Midnight tonight?

 

[RJN]

Next Tuesday, the 2nd

 

[ButterTart]

I have very little to add to this unless there's suddenly a market on Moopy for Jimmy Eat World album tracks, but I plan to be an enthusiastic spectator.

If it’s as good as The Middle, then send it! Why not?

 

[BoysForSeles]

Have to say this sounds like a very good idea with the potential for follow up editions (organised by someone who is not me).

 

[Tisch]

I will have a proper think about this and get something to you @RJN (just wanted to show interest as I hadn't said anything yet!)

 

[RJN]

I kind of assumed you'd be sending something

 

[ZenGiraffe]

How many do we have so far?

 

[RJN]

13 songs from 5 people! This doesn't include my own, which I think I'll decide based on how many others I get

 

[jyxz]

I’ll play!

I’ve got two definites to send.

 

[Jark]

by when do we have to submit?

 

[RJN]

by when do we have to submit?

[RJN]

The songs can be in by midnight London time the night before

 

[AlgoAlex]

[RJN]
