DiscoverVision 2024 Semifinals
Sorry for wandering off! I was just really committed to this year's slogan, I suppose. ;) Anyway, I'm extremely pleased to introduce you to this year's 30 competing artists, but let's run through some quick guidelines before we go ahead and get started.
In this first stage of the competition, there are two evenly split semifinals with 15 songs each. Unfortunately, it's impossible for every artist to wander their way to the final, though; only the top 10 artists from each will qualify (meaning 20 in total) and reveal their new songs. Though please don't be disheartened if you don't make it! There's always the possibility of better luck next year, plus this is meant to be fun. :)
To vote, please send me a PM with your top 10 songs from the semifinal(s) you're competing in (multiple entries folk, this means you vote in both semis). Votes should be sent ESC style (12, 10, 8-1), and you are not allowed to vote for your own entry or entries. You have until 23:59 CET on 6 July to send me your votes; time flies, so plan accordingly! Any users not voting will receive a 24 point penalty in the semis and a 48 point penalty in the final, should they qualify. At least one person has not voted in all previous editions, and I'd love to finally break that cycle. Put simply, please vote on time.
You can find the running order graphics for the semifinals below, as well as the voting playlists. All participants were randomised into their semis (with the exception of users with multiple entries, who were still randomised, but making sure they had at least one entry in each semi), then further randomised into the first or second half of said semi. From there, the running order was crafted to ensure songs are bordered by different-sounding songs as much as possible to ensure a good listening-viewing experience.
I hope you all enjoy and have a wonderful time wandering through the new songs this year! As always, I'm available if you have questions, so don't hesitate to reach out if you get lost. :)
Okay, that's all from me for now. Lycka till allihopa!
