Ok, so this is Club Fonograma’s first anniversary, we don’t have any resources or anything like that to put together something cool for you, but we really hope you have enjoyed our first 12 months in this still very small corner of the music blogosphere. I’m not sure if we’re doing a fine job with this thing, but I’m extremely proud of it, I expected very few things from it and the outcomes have been incredibly warm. I know it’s not thanks-giving, throughout these months we’ve received much love from readers and creative artists alike, and it never hurts to give a shout out to the people that have helped us, inspired us and embraced us during this young stage of fonogramas. Especially to the artists, keep the good vision coming, and keep us informed. Note, this is a list of the artists we have been in contact with regarding the blog during this year, not necessarily our favorites.
