It's time to watch who made it into the bracket of this contest. It's time to cut off the list of nominated artists. 280 artists got a nomination, but there's only place for 64.
Firstly, let's reveal the top three in a notable mention:
Sixty artists earned enough points to not have to worry about being included in the bracket. Here's a list of the top 60:
Spoiler | Rank | Artist name | Points | | | | | 1 | Coldplay | 57 | | 2 | Green Day | 53 | | 3 | Eminem | 52 | | 4 | AC/DC | 51 | | 5 | Pink Floyd | 49 | | 6 | Muse | 46 | | 7 | Linkin Park | 43 | | 8 | The Beatles | 40 | | 9 | Armin van Buuren | 39 | | 10 | Imagine Dragons | 34 | | 11 | Queen | 33 | | 12 | Stromae | 33 | | 13 | Arctic Monkeys | 31 | | 14 | Nickelback | 29 | | 15 | Ed Sheeran | 28 | | 16 | Hoodie Allen | 28 | | 17 | Red Hot Chili Peppers | 27 | | 18 | Avenged Sevenfold | 26 | | 19 | Led Zeppelin | 23 | | 20 | The Doors | 23 | | 21 | Avicii | 22 | | 22 | Martin Garrix | 22 | | 23 | Bastille | 21 | | 24 | Nirvana | 21 | | 25 | Hardwell | 20 | | 26 | U2 | 20 | | 27 | Passenger | 20 | | 28 | Metallica | 19 | | 29 | Nicky Romero | 19 | | 30 | OneRepublic | 18 | | 31 | Dire Straits | 18 | | 32 | Fall Out Boy | 18 | | 33 | The Killers | 18 | | 34 | Katy Perry | 17 | | 35 | All American Rejects | 17 | | 36 | Billy Joel | 17 | | 37 | Three Days Grace | 17 | | 38 | Pharrell Williams | 16 | | 39 | Guns 'n Roses | 15 | | 40 | W&W | 15 | | 41 | Foo Fighters | 15 | | 42 | Mumford & Sons | 15 | | 43 | Jason Derulo | 14 | | 44 | Dannic | 14 | | 45 | Oasis | 14 | | 46 | 30 Seconds to Mars | 14 | | 47 | Modest Mouse | 14 | | 48 | Bon Jovi | 13 | | 49 | Volbeat | 13 | | 50 | The Rolling Stones | 12 | | 51 | The Eagles | 12 | | 52 | Macklemore & Ryan Lewis | 12 | | 53 | Iron Maiden | 12 | | 54 | Vicetone | 12 | | 55 | Dyro | 12 | | 56 | Rammstein | 12 | | 57 | Queens of the Stone Age | 12 | | 58 | Kygo | 11 | | 59 | Rise Against | 11 | | 60 | Franz Ferdinand | 11 |
NOTE: Queens of the Stone Age got randomly selected by a generator as the artist on the 57th spot. You'll see what that means when the brackets are made.
Now it gets exciting. There are only 4 spots left in the bracket, but 21 artists scored 10 points. A generator picked 4 random artists to continue in this tournament. Here are places 61-81, with the 4 lucky artists above the cutoff:
Spoiler | Rank | Artist name | Points | | | | | 61 | Pitbull | 10 | | 62 | Daughter | 10 | | 63 | Bombay Bicycle Club | 10 | | 64 | Motorpsycho | 10 | | --- | ---CUTOFF--- | --- | | | 65 | Kodaline | 10 | | 66 | David Bowie | 10 | | 67 | Frank Ocean | 10 | | 68 | Deep Purple | 10 | | 69 | She and Him | 10 | | 70 | Daft Punk | 10 | | 71 | Madeon | 10 | | 72 | The Jimi Hendrix Experience | 10 | | 73 | Knife Party | 10 | | 74 | Emilie Nicolas | 10 | | 75 | Lordi | 10 | | 76 | Witty | 10 | | 77 | The National | 10 | | 78 | Sexion d'Assaut | 10 | | 79 | Nightwish | 10 | | 80 | James Blunt | 10 | | 81 | DJ Snake | 10 |
Now there's 199 artists left who clearly didn't make it into the bracket, but we couldn't just leave them without a notice, could we? Here’s a list of the spots 82-280, maybe it'll be useful to search for one of your favourites. One last notable mention goes to the last placed artist, which is Mr. Rick Roll himself.
Spoiler | Rank | Artist name | Points | | | | | 82 | Kensington | 9 | | 83 | The Smiths | 9 | | 84 | Mew | 9 | | 85 | Axwell | 9 | | 86 | Maroon 5 | 9 | | 87 | London Philharmonic Orchestra | 9 | | 88 | The Courteeners | 9 | | 89 | The 1975 | 9 | | 90 | Weird Al Yankovic | 9 | | 91 | Dash Berlin | 9 | | 92 | Sonic Youth | 9 | | 93 | Bon Iver | 9 | | 94 | Halestorm | 9 | | 95 | Journey | 9 | | 96 | The Proclaimers | 9 | | 97 | OK Kid | 8 | | 98 | John Legend | 8 | | 99 | Avril Lavigne | 8 | | 100 | Boston | 8 | | 101 | Pavement | 8 | | 102 | DragonForce | 8 | | 103 | Justin Timberlake | 8 | | 104 | Area 11 | 8 | | 105 | Tame Impala | 8 | | 106 | Scarlet Pleasure | 8 | | 107 | The Who | 8 | | 108 | Beogradski Sindikat | 8 | | 109 | Soundgarden | 8 | | 110 | Tiësto | 8 | | 111 | Gojira | 8 | | 112 | Jared Evan | 8 | | 113 | Kettcar | 8 | | 114 | Chiddy Bang | 8 | | 115 | Transsylvania Phoenix | 8 | | 116 | Rihanna | 8 | | 117 | ABBA | 8 | | 118 | Lorde | 7 | | 119 | Disclosure | 7 | | 120 | James Blake | 7 | | 121 | Calvin Harris | 7 | | 122 | Boards of Canada | 7 | | 123 | Graveyard | 7 | | 124 | Zedd | 7 | | 125 | Porter Robinson | 7 | | 126 | John Mayer | 7 | | 127 | Seeed | 7 | | 128 | Cantwait / Kendi | 7 | | 129 | Blondie | 7 | | 130 | Pearl Jam | 7 | | 131 | Paul van Dyk | 7 | | 132 | Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike | 7 | | 133 | Amon Amarth | 7 | | 134 | Angus & Julia Stone | 7 | | 135 | Bright Eyes | 7 | | 136 | Maître Gims | 7 | | 137 | Slipknot | 7 | | 138 | System of a Down | 7 | | 139 | KIDD | 7 | | 140 | Phil Collins | 7 | | 141 | Golden Earring | 6 | | 142 | Mary PopKids | 6 | | 143 | MKTO | 6 | | 144 | The Afghan Whigs | 6 | | 145 | Cash Cash | 6 | | 146 | Maximo Park | 6 | | 147 | Carpark North | 6 | | 148 | Valve (Studio) Orchestra | 6 | | 149 | Gorillaz | 6 | | 150 | Jessie Ware | 6 | | 151 | Metric | 6 | | 152 | Cosmic Gate | 6 | | 153 | Swedish House Mafia | 6 | | 154 | The xx | 6 | | 155 | Black M | 6 | | 156 | Bruno Mars | 6 | | 157 | Amaranthe | 6 | | 158 | Papa Roach | 6 | | 159 | The Black Eyed Peas | 6 | | 160 | Two Door Cinema Club | 6 | | 161 | Lightning Seeds | 6 | | 162 | One Direction | 5 | | 163 | Genesis | 5 | | 164 | Radio Killer | 5 | | 165 | Editors | 5 | | 166 | Ray Charles | 5 | | 167 | Creedence Clearwater Revival | 5 | | 168 | Vampire Weekend | 5 | | 169 | Sohn | 5 | | 170 | All Time Low | 5 | | 171 | Immortal Technique | 5 | | 172 | Depeche Mode | 5 | | 173 | Thousands | 5 | | 174 | Emma Hewitt | 5 | | 175 | Black Sabbath | 5 | | 176 | Audien | 5 | | 177 | Ventura Lights | 5 | | 178 | MitiS | 5 | | 179 | Christophe Maé | 5 | | 180 | Elton John | 5 | | 181 | Uriah Heep | 5 | | 182 | Lukas Graham | 5 | | 183 | Kaiser Chiefs | 5 | | 184 | Crowded House | 5 | | 185 | Foster the People | 4 | | 186 | Status Quo | 4 | | 187 | Auryn | 4 | | 188 | Ivan & The Parazol | 4 | | 189 | The Script | 4 | | 190 | Kyuss | 4 | | 191 | Billy Idol | 4 | | 192 | Twisted Sister | 4 | | 193 | Ummet Ozcan | 4 | | 194 | Oliver Heldens | 4 | | 195 | Jonathan Coulton | 4 | | 196 | Turboweekend | 4 | | 197 | The Used | 4 | | 198 | Frenkie | 4 | | 199 | New Order | 4 | | 200 | The Walkmen | 4 | | 201 | Syb van der Ploeg | 4 | | 202 | Toseland | 4 | | 203 | The Notwist | 4 | | 204 | Lionel Richie | 4 | | 205 | Cargo | 4 | | 206 | Five Finger Death Punch | 4 | | 207 | Tom Odell | 3 | | 208 | Animal Collective | 3 | | 209 | Bruce Springsteen | 3 | | 210 | D-A-D | 3 | | 211 | ATB | 3 | | 212 | Tritonal | 3 | | 213 | TJR | 3 | | 214 | Jefferson Airplane | 3 | | 215 | Doctor P | 3 | | 216 | Friendly Fires | 3 | | 217 | Frida Sundemo | 3 | | 218 | The Fray | 3 | | 219 | Nelly Furtado | 3 | | 220 | Ludovico Einaudi | 3 | | 221 | Milow | 3 | | 222 | Belle & Sebastian | 3 | | 223 | Afrojack | 3 | | 224 | 31Knots | 3 | | 225 | Logic | 3 | | 226 | McFly | 3 | | 227 | Limp Bizkit | 3 | | 228 | Nice Peter | 3 | | 229 | Shakira | 3 | | 230 | Picture Book | 3 | | 231 | Blur | 3 | | 232 | Electric Light Orchestra | 3 | | 233 | Flume | 2 | | 234 | Madness | 2 | | 235 | Julio Iglesias | 2 | | 236 | De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig | 2 | | 237 | Markus Schulz | 2 | | 238 | Krewella | 2 | | 239 | Big Brother and the Holding Company | 2 | | 240 | Jay Z | 2 | | 241 | Isaak Prahmen | 2 | | 242 | Klaxons | 2 | | 243 | MØ | 2 | | 244 | Hans Zimmer | 2 | | 245 | Marčelo | 2 | | 246 | The Cure | 2 | | 247 | Noah and the Whale | 2 | | 248 | King Crimson | 2 | | 249 | Diablo Blvd | 2 | | 250 | Kid Rock | 2 | | 251 | J.

Eminem, Green Day and Coldplay being top3 tears my musical anti-pop hearth apart, but that is life.

Hey guys. The random generator has done its job, let's see what it came up with for the first round. As I already said once before, the top 8 artists were paired up with the artists who ended between spot 57-64, after that it's all random pairs of artists between spot 9-56. For now there is no real bracket, for Rounds 2 and 3 the random generator will be used once again.
But anyway, here are the match-ups for Round 1.
Spoiler Dire Straits v 30 Seconds To Mars
Ed Sheeran v All American Rejects
Oasis v Dyro
The Beatles v Motorpsycho
Nicky Romero v Arctic Monkeys
OneRepublic v Armin van Buuren
Foo Fighters v Bon Jovi
Linkin Park v Bombay Bicycle Club
Avicii v Mumford & Sons
Hardwell v The Doors
Nirvana v Rammstein
Muse v Franz Ferdinand
Led Zeppelin v Volbeat
Hoodie Allen v Avenged Sevenfold
Iron Maiden v Billy Joel
Pink Floyd v Queens of the Stone Age
Stromae v The Eagles
Guns 'n Roses v Passenger
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis v Jason Derulo
AC/DC v Pitbull
Fall Out Boy v U2
Modest Mouse v The Rolling Stones
Queen v Pharrell Williams
Eminem v Rise Against
Red Hot Chili Peppers v Katy Perry
The Killers v W&W
Martin Garrix v Metallica
Green Day v Daughter
Imagine Dragons v Vicetone
Dannic v Bastille
Three Days Grace v Nickelback
Coldplay v Kygo
The next post will include the first active match-ups, after that you're able to vote.

Hey guys, this contest is finally going to start. It's time for the first match-ups in Round 1. In the spoilers you'll find the active match-ups, as well as a song for both artists to listen if you didn't know them already. For every round that an artist survives a song will be added. So now we'll start with one song pro artist, in Round 2 there's two songs pro artist and so on.
These are the first four match-ups you can vote for:
Spoiler DIRE STRAITS vs. 30 SECONDS TO MARS
Spoiler ED SHEERAN vs. THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS
Spoiler THE BEATLES vs. MOTORPSYCHO
Voting goes like this: you just name your favourite band. No copy-pasting at all, just type the 4 artists that take the win for you.
So, I guess this is it. This contest is rolling. The deadline for these four match-ups is 4/7/2014, 22:00 CET, so that's exactly 3 days to vote. Go go go!
