Which are the best djent releases of 2012?
In the past few weeks, all registered users could pick their five favourite djent releases of 2012. Thanks to everyone who shared their favourites with us. A lot of albums came out this year, so picking just five was a challenging task! In total,
987 people participated. They voted for
262 different releases, out of
566 that were eligible.
Just like last year, we will be spreading the results across a number of posts, to make things a bit more interesting. We will announce part of the results every day for a week. Today, we're announcing positions 20 through 11. Tomorrow, we will be announcing positions 10 through 6. And from then on, we'll be announcing one more album per day, for five days, until we've reached number one.
Last year, we also included a top 10 of freely downloadable releases with the final announcement. Ever since the start of got-djent.com, we have witnessed a steady increase of the percentage of releases in our database that are available for free download. Currently, over 40% of the releases in our database can be downloaded for free! With this in mind, we've decided to release a top 20 of freely downloadable releases this year, instead of a top 10. Stay tuned for that!
Without further ado, we present to you the first part of the got-djent.com top 20 of 2012, according to our users.
