TCTD Awards 2009: Best Artist
Our final award is somewhat nebulous and warrants a little explaining. It is someone who should be among the foremost names on your list when explaining chip music to outsiders, a person whose skills as a musician and composer are so inspiring that mere words cannot convey their importance to the scene. The following nominations comprise artists from all the relevant categories. I am happy to present the (last!) award of 2009, Artist of the Year:
minusbaby – With a stripped down live approach, quality EPs for 8bitpeoples and rocking pixel work, Minusbaby made numerous TCTD award shortlists. His music becomes more nuanced and engrossing with each release.
Bud Melvin – An amazing performer with an awesome release confirms my gut feeling that any year Bud is active, he is a nominee for this category.
4mat – One of the demoscene greats returns to the fold. Even his WIPs and fragments outstrip many official releases.
Goto80 – Do you like breakfast?
Little-Scale – This insanely prolific inventor and composer was the overwhelming choice of the public in this year’s nominations. He is an innovative songwriter, a great live performer and he knows a thing or two about interfacing with his hardware.
