blocSonic's 20 Favorites of 2010... and another

It's  hard to believe that it's already been 2 years since WFMU's Free Music Archive went live. After 2 years, the world of Creative Commons has already undergone a significant amount of growth and the FMA has made itself right at home within it. Thank you to WFMU for helping to expose a wider audience to CC licensed music! I look forward to seeing what more you have to offer in the coming years!

I was asked to put together a top 10 mix and I tried... I really did, but it was impossible given the amount of incredible music that's hosted here. The flow of music here at the FMA is such that it makes it impossible to keep up with everything that's been added, but I do my best. As I tried to whittle the list down to 10 tracks, I realized it was a lost cause and decided to make it 20 tracks. 20 incredible tracks! Plus one incredible track from the first single of blocSonic's most recent release by Liam Stewart, "Sixteen Words", which will be available here at FMA this week. 

I sincerely hope you enjoy this selection. I also hope that you continue to support WFMU and Creative Commons licensed music. 

Peace

it hasn't been quite 2 years since the site launched (april 2009) tho this is our 2nd year-end series...ha, but who's counting! thanks for your kind words about the fma

and thanks for all *you* do to spotlight great music that wants to be shared, year-round, thru BlocSonic's releases and the NetBloc compilation series -- seriously, BlocSonic digs deep!

Ha… I had a feeling I was exaggerating about the age of the FMA. Hey… 2 years sounds better than 1 yr. 8 mos.!

You wrote, "I was asked to put together a top 10 mix and I tried... I really did, but it was impossible given the amount of incredible music that's hosted here." Agreed, 100%! Aren't we fortunate? 2010 was fantastic. Here's to many more years of this incredible resource!
