Re: New Acadia has got their Swag in a Bag!

Bumping this to the next page.

So, here's our NF!

:D


Being the rock and indie kind of people we New Acadians are, we thought it would be best to get into just that kind of NF.. Here are the songs that are competing to be our next entrant.

And off we start with an English new rave band, Hadouken! Hailing from Leeds, with their song Mecha Love!
01. Hadouken! - Mecha Love
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfjuVCyzToY

Staying with the UK theme, off we go to Glasgow, Scotland, with the Fratellis.
02. The Fratellis - Flathead
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fz2ZDeTYgTs

And dubstep is pretty cool, too. From a trio from the London area, the music project of Magnetic Man.
03. Magnetic Man - I Need Air
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2vWQFHP3D0

And here's one of two performers from outside of the UK. From Cleveland, Ohio, USA, Foxy Shazam!
04. Foxy Shazam - Unstoppable
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFt3OqmGSbI&ob=av2e

And another group from Leeds. Here is The Sunshine Underground.
05. The Sunshine Underground - Spell It Out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xruuHGAqyJc

And finally, the lead singer of The Strokes, and the only solo artist, Julian Casablancas!
06. Julian Casablancas - 11th Dimension
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pl15PlIXHIk

Here the voting style:

You have $1000. You can distribute it however you'd like, right here, on this thread. You can also change your votes later on. There may be an added element on the end where I have the final two face off (but I haven't decided on that yet)... I'll leave this open for as long as I feel appropriate.

Also, you are able to change your votes as you see fit.

Finally, I ask that you please not vote unless you seriously like one or more of the songs :)

Let the voting begin!

Totals after three voters (thanks Scorp :)

1st place: Julian Casablancas - $1060
2nd: Hadouken! - $950
3rd: The Sunshine Underground - $485
4th: Foxy Shazam - $225
5th: The Fratellis - $165
last: Magnetic Man - $115

Re: New Acadia - NSC 60 - Back to NF's :)

Thanks for voting Nati, Ronny, & Liam :) This race is much closer than I thought! Voting at this stage will close in 24 hours in order to prepare for the final showdown, where I'll try to come up with something new as well.

Re: New Acadia - NSC 60 - Back to NF's :)

Current totals:
1st. The Sunshine Underground - $2765
2nd. Hadouken! - $2590
3rd. Magnetic Man - $1582
4th. The Fratellis - $1573
5th. Julian Casablancas - $1081
last. Foxy Shazam - $1011

Some info on the final:
The top two songs will qualify, and will be joined by a new, third song by one of the artists from places 3-6 (replacement songs have been chosen for every artist in the case that Hadouken! or TSU finish lower than top two, which seems slightly unlikely ATM :)

Voting style will be determined later this evening.

5ish hours left to vote!

Re: New Acadia - NSC 60 - Back to NF's :)

And so starts the final phase of our NF. The two artists who directly qualified to the final were the two bands from Leeds, Hadouken! and The Sunshine Underground. They are joined in the final by wildcard Julian Casablancas, who's song is being replaced.

01. The Sunshine Underground - Spell It Out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xruuHGAqyJc

02. Julian Casablancas - River of Breaklights
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19rYzTpK-hI

03. Hadouken! - Mecha Love
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfjuVCyzToY

Voting Style:
You have only $100 to spend on the artists this time, and you MUST give at least $50 to one act (your favourite, naturally). Also, you can't change your votes, so think carefully before distributing your totals. PLEASE listen to the songs carefully, especially the second one as it is a different song from Julian Casablancas' initial song.

Again, I ask if you don't like any of the songs, please don't bother voting :)

Thanks! Just like last time, I'll keep this open for as long as I feel necessary. Start voting! (Post your votes on this thread again)
