Judges and hosts

edit

Robby Purba was the first cast member confirmed to return for the second season in July 2014 during an interview with media.[1] In January 2015, Anggun tweeted that she would leave X Factor Indonesia for an international project which was later revealed to be a judging role for Asia's Got Talent.[2] Her replacement was later confirmed to be young pop star Afgan after RCTI released a series of promos featuring the judges for the second season, which include the remaining judges from the first season Ahmad Dhani, Rossa, and Bebi Romeo, on the late of March 2015.[3]

Selection process

Cities where the auditions were held.

Auditions

edit

The producers' auditions began on January 14–15, 2015 at the Airlangga University in Surabaya, East Java. More producers' auditions were held on January 17–18 at the State University of Medan in Medan, North Sumatra, January 24–25 at the Jogja Expo Center in Yogyakarta, Special Region of Yogyakarta, February 3–4 at the Sasana Budaya Ganesha in Bandung, West Java and concluded on February 10–12 at the Balai Samudera in Jakarta, Jakarta Special Capital Region.[4]

Audition city Open audition date Open audition venue
Surabaya 14–15 January 2015 Airlangga University
Medan 17–18 January 2015 State University of Medan
Yogyakarta 24–25 January 2015 Jogja Expo Center
Bandung 3–4 February 2015 Sasana Budaya Ganesha
Jakarta 10–12 February 2015 Balai Samudera

The contestants who passed producers' audition were later invited to the last set of auditions in Jakarta. These auditions individually occur simultaneously before both the judges and a live studio audience; and with such audience in attendance able to applaud/cheer approval or disapproval and perhaps influencing the judges. The auditions were broadcast on April 3, 10, 17, and 24 episodes.

Bootcamp

edit

119 acts reached the bootcamp in Jakarta, which includes three sets of challenge. On day one, each act has to perform an a cappella song for 30-second in front of the judges. Afterwards 43 acts were eliminated and the remaining 76 acts were grouped into pairs that will participate in a sing-off duel on the second day, similar to The Voice's battle round. The number of contestants were further reduced after the judges chose only 12 acts for each category, with the exception of only 7 acts for Groups category, to put through to the final challenge. In addition, the judges also gave a second chance for several contestants who were rejected as soloists to continue the competition as groups and formed 3 new groups (a girl duo, a mix duo, and a 5-piece girl group), thus increasing the number of acts from Groups category into 10.[5] It was also revealed that Dhani would mentor the Overages, Rossa would mentor the Groups, Afgan would mentor the Girls, and Bebi would mentor the Boys. The first two challenges of bootcamp were broadcast on May 1 episode.[6]

The final round of bootcamp follows the new format of six-chair challenge featured on the American and the British version of the show. Judges make decisions on whom to put through to judges' houses straight after each act has performed, with those getting a yes taking a seat in the final six chairs on stage. It is up to the mentor to decide, which act they want to take to judges' houses, but once all six spots are full, if the mentor wants to send another act through to the next stage it means they have to replace one of those who were previously given a yes. After the six-chair challenge, the number of remaining acts were narrowed down to 24. The six-chair challenge were broadcast on May 8 and 15 episodes.[7]

Key:

Showcase and wildcard

edit

Showcase is the first live performance for the 12 acts who made it through to the Gala live show. Each mentor will introduce the acts who best they have to the public. Each act will perform one at a time to show their skills. At the beginning of showcase, it was announced that each judge could bring back one further act back as a wildcard. The public then voted for which of the four wildcards would become the thirteenth finalist. This left one judge with an extra act. Bebi chose Ario Setiawan, Afgan chose Ajeng Astiani, Rossa chose Chiara Duo and Dhani chose Rahmadani Nasution. Ajeng was revealed as the thirteenth act in the end of show.
