Top 50 Artists & Bands of 2009

It might be a little late for Best of 2009 lists, but I recently came across this particular one and couldn’t not mention it. In January, The Hype Machine put together a list of the top 50 artists of 2009 according to how frequently their songs were posted. They then invited 50 visual artists to create a piece of work inspired by each band, and created a series of posts featuring the resulting artwork. You can see the entire set right here, but a few of my favorites (for both the artwork and the music) are below.
