Alison Wenham, Chairman of the Association of Independent Music (AIM) and organiser of Independents Day 2009 says: "We're thrilled to have we7, one of the top destinations for music fans online, support Independents Day. We all know our Arctic Monkeys from our Prodigy's, but there's a huge wealth of great independent music just waiting to be discovered. We hope you enjoy this playlist of new independent music, and if you do - tell your friends!" Clive Gardiner, SVP of Digital Music at we7 says “it is critical that the independent sector gets the same opportunities to enjoy exposure and revenues from new digital services as major labels. At we7 this has always been one of our founding principles, and you will see great indie music promoted at every level across our website..” The hundreds of thousands of artists and labels in the independent sector are responsible for some of the most dynamic, creative and diverse music currently being recorded, which is a huge influence on what gets signed, promoted and listened to by the major music labels. We7's ID09 playlist has been compiled with help and support from AIM, and is made up of nominations from indies big and small - all have a passionate belief and a fascinating story to tell. The musical journey varies from rock to soul to world to pop to chillout - kick back your shoes and jump aboard..... · Less
