I've put this off for way too long... it's just cuz too much awesome music happened in 2009 and I think it's more than any single human could possibly digest in one year. Trust me, I've tried -- I have to have this sadistic urge to try to absorb everything. It's a problem. It's an addiction. But hey -- music is the healthiest addiction around, so might as well binge on the choicest sounds! I discovered a lot of these favorites through WFMU's music library; its endlessly inspiring New Bin curated by Mr Brian Turner, and WFMU's multi-talented DJ arsenal who bring the musical universe to contextualized life On The Air.
I've also discovered countless new favorites via the Free Music Archive, through tips from fellow curators and music fiends and browsing the net for the best Creative Commons audio. The FMA's library of freely download-able, curated mp3s has tripled in size since we launched in April, and I've listed some of my favorite selections below, more are on the way. Happy 2010 everybody!
