2009 was an amazing year for independent artists (those not attached to the big record labels and such). Here's my top 5 of the year in no particular order:

1. bad loop - found this guy's music in 2007, but his music just does not get old one bit, I find it difficult to pick top 10 tunes, top 20 tunes etc. but my for sure top tune of all time is Nio. Absolutely love it.
2. Mirrored Theory - he's been releasing his tunes on YouTube and MySpace for a while, he's done some amazing mixes and wondrous…

Fri 19 Oct – Phatfish and Lou Fellingham in Concert

There's not much to say really, it was absolutely fantastic. They played some awesome music from their albums Treasure and . The music was astounding, it was a relativly small venue at NEWI in Wrexham, Wales. A few hundred people were there I'd estimate (we were at the front, how awesome =D) and Phatfish lived up to and beyond my expectations. All the songs were meaningful and it was wonderful to see God praised with such wonderful music. Thumbsup and a 10/10 rating for Phatfish and the concert. Oh btw,…

Yes, yet another new artist and he is definately worth checking out.

GreenGender is a relativly new music artist on the scene who uses various drum beats with light tones over the top. He is certainly worth listening to if your looking for fresh new electronica artists. His newest album Individual Army which is free yes I'll repeat that free…what are you still here for? Go and download it and listen away as it is so worth it :D

FPRFproject are a fresh new musical duo from Russia and their music is definitely individual. Taking roots from Boards of Canada, M83 and various other IDM and electronica artists. Listening to their 4 free songs available off their website (FPRFproject) it shows their music styles vary and even though you might not like all of their songs they are definitely worth listening to. So support them and help them keep up the good work :D

Bad loop is an awesome electronica artists and has done some really good music which varies quite a bit. Don't know who to compare him to really, he's really good though and I highly recommend his song Nio and lumme.
