DS Next Top Artist: Series 4 - The Semi-Final!

Good evening folks!

Well I can't believe that we are already at this stage of the contest... the semi-final!

Five acts remain, but only four of them can progress tomorrow night to make the final later in the week...

Malin Dahlstrom (Dylan)
James Blake (Seth)
Vampire Weekend (Aliyah)
Eisley (Alex)
The Maccabees (AliB)

Tonight, these acts will all sing two free choice 'Get Me To The Final' songs - one from their own catalogue, one imagined by their mentor!

The standard of this NTA has been so high... I've found myself ripping most of the songs from each show off youtube! It's made it quite hard to vote.

Thanks Nail

I agree, an incredible standard this show! I love Camera and Roykscopp for Eisley/Malin, and Measurents is a stunningg James song, and I saw the Maccabees live yesterday !

The Maccabees. Vampire Weekend.

So we have Aliyah vs Alibaba, arguably the DS King and Queen of indie music.

Vampire Weekend!

Congrats to Aliyah who makes her 3rd NTA final out of a possible 3 (plus her NTGP one too).

However, massive commiserations to Alib and

THE MACCABEES.

Alib returned to DS games especially for this series and I think we can all agree he has done brilliantly as usual.

Aww commiserations and AliB and The Maccabees an act I've loved throughout and I definitely expected them too make the finals!

Well done Aliyah and VW though, happy they made the final!
