Astro Battleground 2009 Preliminary 4 (Date of Broadcast: 21 Nov 2009, Saturday, 7pm)
The competition gets more intensifying after the previous preliminary round. After having to see Shadow Emotion and La Bella Trio eliminated last week, audiences will have to be prepared to see 2 more groups face elimination. Due to poor performance, M.J.C had the lowest score and was eliminated. On the other hand, Twister XF and FREE had to battle it out in order to remain in the competition.
Alike with Preliminary 3, the theme for Preliminary 4 is Asian Hip Hop. Contestants have to perform to songs from the Asian region, in terms of the artiste’s or composer’s origin. The main aim of having this theme is to present the uniqueness of Asian Hip Hop and how these teams are able to combine their skills and creativity with the songs. The teams who are in Preliminary 4 are Katoon Network, FREE, M.J.C, Twister XF, Dancologist and Wakaka Fever.
Katoon Network used a comedic and theatrical approach in their performance this time. It was a pleasure having to watch them in their Kungfu attire and applying Kungfu elements in their dance routine. Hence, they were best in show. Marcus said that they managed to entertain the audience by telling a story through combining different dance styles. However, Bobby felt that they could do even better. As for FREE, Rambo felt that they lack in portraying their emotions when performing. On top of that, Bobby claimed that he could not see any Asian Hip Hop in their dance.
M.J.C received negative comments from the judges today. Marcus could not understand what message the team was trying to convey. In addition to it, they were not in sync with the music. As for Twister XF, they managed to capture the audiences’ attention by using classic tracks from Sam Hui. Marcus felt that they carried the theme out very well. Bobby suggested that their movements must be neater and more synchronized.
It was a Shanghai affair when Dancologist appeared in their bright red outfits. Bobby and Rambo were delighted to see the girls being playful while they presented an excellent routine. They were good in their dance, emotions and even had excellent eye contact. As for Wakaka Fever, they have only used percussion beats throughout their whole routine. Rambo praised them for their ‘universal’ dance steps and that people could relate to it easily. Apart from that, Marcus felt that Wakaka Fever’s performance was very entertaining.
Who will be eliminated in the battle segment? Will it be Twister XF or FREE? For more exciting dance moves on Battleground, remember to tune in to Astro Wah Lai Toi (Channel 311) on Saturday, November 21 at 7 p.m.
《舞极限》 选拔赛（四） (播映时间：14 Nov 09，7点)
Twister XF 和 FREE 首次跌入 Battle 环节
M.J.C 表现差被淘汰
随着来到最后一场选拔赛，比赛状况越来越激烈，当中参赛队伍更是“劲心劲力”呈现出街舞的精神和精湛的舞蹈动作。上星期被淘汰的Shadow Emotion和La Bella Trio之后，这星期将会再有两队会被淘汰出局。曾进入Battle环节的M.J.C因为表现最差，直接被淘汰，而Twister XF和FREE首次跌入Battle环节，以“轧舞”方式决胜负。
第四场选拔赛与上星期主题相同是“亚洲嘻哈”，參賽者所選用的音樂必須為亞洲區域的演藝者或創作者，呈现出亞洲嬉哈文化特色和再加上各别队伍無限的創意。第四场选拔赛参赛队伍为Katoon Network、FREE、M.J.C.、Twister XF、Dancologist和Wakaka Fever。
Katoon Network 再次发挥鬼马特色，运用老爷爷角色串联舞蹈内容，加入功夫元素和身穿唐装，绝对是“先声夺人”，再次获得最佳的成绩。Marcus表示Katoon Network以不同的舞蹈动作呈现出故事，并且具有娱乐效果。不过，Bobby老师则认为这并不是他们最好的表演。被蓝波老师评为舞蹈内只有动感而少了感性部分的FREE，而Bobby老师看不见这星期主题的呈现。
平均年龄最大的M.J.C.这星期评审给于的评语较差，Marcus不明白该队伍所要表达的讯息是什么？再加上音乐不搭的情况，造成他们直接被淘汰。另外，选用经典歌曲像是徐冠杰的《打工仔》等音乐的Twister XF让Marcus觉得惊喜之外也有带出主题，Bobby老师建议他们在动作上要更加利落一些。
鲜红色性感的服装，有着妩媚、浓浓上海风情味道又“耍坏”的Dancologist到让Bobby和蓝波老师直呼喜欢。舞蹈呈现相当不错，表情也很丰富，还会放电呢！而全程只是使用本土敲击乐呈现的Wakaka Fever水准依然保持，他们说创作的舞步更被蓝波老师称赞“很世界性的动作”，也很有魅力。Marcus老师认为Wakaka Fever的表演很有娱乐效果。
Twister XF 和 FREE在 Battle 环节中谁会步上 M.J.C. 的后尘，被淘汰呢？还是谁的Battle功力最强，能够晋级半决赛呢？更多精彩的舞蹈动作就要留守Astro华丽台（第311频道）在11月21日，星期六傍晚7时播出的《舞极限》。

After the audition, we officially have 16 dance teams who will compete for top spot in Battleground and be champions in street dance. The rules of the competition have now been changed. Apart from new participants, we can see former champions coming back in hopes to be champions again. Elecoldxhot was best in show while FOX and Max Identity had a round of battle in order to gain a place in the next round as they were in the bottom two.
The theme for this round is ‘Signature Dance’ and the reason for this is so that dance teams have the chance to perform their fortes and show us the teams’ identities and their individual and unique dance styles. There are 8 groups in total competing in Preliminary 1 and it consist of Street WreckerZ, FOX, Max Identity, MOVE, D-Black Gang, La Bella Trio, Shadow Emotion and Elecoldxhot.
With a combination of members from 2007 champion dance team and new members Street WreckerZ was formed and they were the first to perform. Rambo stated that they managed to capture the audiences’ attention through their dance moves and all eyes were upon them while they were performing. On top of that, Marcus felt that they allocated sufficient strength in their dance moves. However, all-girl team FOX, did not received praises as how Street WreckerZ did. According to Rambo, despite having the potential and attraction, they lacked strength in their movements. Bobby felt that although their performance was great, they would be look more attractive and charming if only they had more strength while dancing.
Max Identity was complimented as ‘cute’ by Rambo and hopes that they will be even better, just as long as they put more strength into their dance moves. On the other hand, MOVE was formed with 2007 runner-up, Ah Ya as the leader. Despite overall improvements, the judges find that their dance moves and choreography has to be more refined and neat. Due to these factors, the judges found it hard to award MOVE with good marks.
With 4 girls and a boy, D-Black Gang was formed and is considered as a ‘complete’ group, performance wise. However, they have to present in through various different levels. La Bella Trio, consisting of 3 young girls received compliments from all 3 judges, saying that they put on a great show and the judges were attracted to their dance moves. Having ‘locking’ as their forte, Shadow Emotion received praises from both Marcus and Bobby for their ‘locking’ dance moves. Apart from that, the judges also felt that it was good that they presented their choreography through different levels.
Last year’s champion, ECX formed Elecoldxhot together with 2007 champion, Dennis Yin. With their impressive presence, the judges unanimously agreed that Elecoldxhot was the best in Preliminary 1. Despite being fast, accurate and having wicked moves, Rambo feels that they have to improve on the quality of their dance. Marcus, on the other hand thinks that they are wise when it comes to playing with their emotion and have included various dance elements in their routine.
After a round of competition, the team with the lowest marks will be eliminated right away. On the other hand, the bottom two teams , FOX and Max Identity will have to battle in order to earn a place in the next round. So, who will win the battle as only one team can have advance to the next round. Tune in to Astro Wah Lai Toi (Channel 311) on the October 31st, 7 p.m in order to find out who are still in the running to be Battleground’s champion dance team.
想跳就跳，舞极限！超夯街舞比赛《舞极限》在经过一轮面活动后，16强的参赛者终于诞生，准备一争高下，势要成为街舞中的冠军，街舞的强中手！参赛规则与 以往不同，除了有新脸孔出现，冠军队伍也再次参赛接受挑战，而由双冠军组合而成的Elecoldxhot获得当天最佳，Fox 和Max Identity因为表现不佳双双跌入Battle环节，面对二选一的情况。
首场选拔赛主題是“招牌舞”，主要目的是要讓參賽者呈現其強 项和最能够代表他们组别个性风格的舞蹈。选拔赛（一）共有8组参赛队伍，分别是Street WreckerZ、FOX、Max Identity、MOVE、D-Black Gang 、La Bella Trio、Shadow Emotion和Elecoldxhot。
率 先登场的是结合了07年冠军成员及新成员的华巫组合Street WreckerZ。蓝波老师看过Street WreckerZ表演后表示这支组合成功以他们的舞姿吸引观众，把焦点放在他们的身上。而Marcus 老师认为他们呈现的舞蹈动作在力度上很足够。全女班的Fox并没有像 Street WreckerZ一样获得评审的一致赞赏。蓝波老师认为他们有潜力，有吸引力，唯独缺乏了少许的实力。而Bobby 老师表示虽然表现有型，但如果能更有力度，呈现出来的感觉将会更加有魅力！
被蓝波老师大赞说“可爱到很讨厌”，同时也希望他们下次能够变 成“厉害到很欠揍”的Max Identity在舞蹈呈现上力度不足够。MOVE队长阿亚曾是 07年亚军，今年再组队伍参赛。虽然整体表现有进步，但是舞蹈动作和舞蹈编排不完整，让他们没有办法从评审手中获得很好的分数。
四女一男 的D-Black Gang舞蹈被蓝波老师比喻成“满汉全席”，什么东西都有，唯独缺少了层次感。3位性感的小女生La Bella Trio获得评审赞赏有很棒的吸引力和魅力，是很好的表演。强项于街舞Locking部分的Shadow Emotion在Locking动作上获得Marcus和Bobby老师很好的评语，而且舞蹈编排方式有层次感。
Elecoldxhot 是去年冠军队ECX加上一位07年的冠军成员Dennis，组合而成的双冠军队伍。组合气势惊人，让评审直呼是选拔赛（一）中最佳的表演。另外，蓝波老师 认为他们的舞蹈动作“快、狠、准”之余舞蹈素质也有提升。而Marcus老师则看到他们懂得如何表达舞蹈动作中的情绪和有不同元素的舞蹈动作。
经 过一轮的街舞比赛后，最低分的组合将会直接被淘汰。而表现不佳的两个组合Fox 和Max Identity将会进入Battle环节，当众只有一组有机会进入下一圈。Fox 和Max Identity到底谁能够在Battle环节中把对手打败呢？而又哪个组合表现最差，直接被评审踢出局呢？想知道在选拔赛（一）中谁去谁留，就要留守 Astro华丽台（第311频道）在10月31日，星期六傍晚7时播出的《舞极限》。
