We present Team Semiintelligencn's solution for the ACM RecSys 2026 TalkPlayData Challenge, addressing conversational music recommendation through a multi-modal and personalized conversational recommender system. Our submitted system employs a three-stage pipeline: (1) multi-modal retrieval constructing decay-weighted centroids across seven dense embedding spaces - track- and user-level CF-BPR, Qwen3 (metadata, lyrics, attributes), CLAP audio, and SigLIP visual - supplemented by BM25 lexical retrieval and an artist substring-match signal, all fused via weighted Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF) with optimized signal weights; (2) lightweight reranking (history filtering, popularity smoothing, and catalog diversity penalization); and (3) persona-diversified response generation using GPT-4o-mini. Beyond this submitted configuration, we report development-time experiments with additional components - constrained LLM-guided artist injection, album continuation signals, XGBoost LambdaMART, and a superior GPT-4.1 response prompt - that were not deployed to Blind B due to cost and complexity constraints. We optimize RRF weights on a 500-session development split via differential evolution, improving MRR by +19.5%. On Blind A, we observe that unconstrained LLM-guided injection across 54 sessions causes catastrophic nDCG regression (-18.9%), while conservative injection on only 9 sessions yields the best observed Blind A nDCG - a finding we present as a Blind A observation warranting further validation. The submitted system achieves a Blind B composite score of 0.3213.
