Friends, Chillout Lovers,

Thank you for your participation in this year’s poll ! Today, we are happy to start publishing the “best of the year” community poll results. In this occasion we express our gratitude to readers, labels and artists that supported the poll. In order to have more accurate and objective results, we did our best to have as many participants as possible, but we also understand that some of you didn’t have time or desire to participate. We had more than 10’000 persons who opened the page with our “huge and long” poll, and a bit over 360 participants have finalized it. Most of participants were from USA, Israel, France, Netherlands, UK, Canada, Hungary, Germany, Russia and Denmark !

Gratitude!

In any case, we think that the poll results will be interesting for many of you, and we would like to ask you to share this page and our future posts with your friends in social media to help spread the word about new artists, new music and to support our small but growing scene.

During the next 3 weeks, on every Monday, Thursday and Saturday, we will publish a new “best of” post, each one dedicated to a poll nomination. You are welcome to visit our home page regularly and visit our forum if you wish to discuss the results. Also, as usual on every Wednesday we will continue to publish weekly news with releases and events.

Future of this project:

If you like this project, we would appreciate if you support us today or other moment. We are also open for ideas and collaborators to create the future together – contact us via contact page or fb.

We will gladly use your paypal, bitcoin or bank transfer donations to keep alive and to develop further and the psybient.org project website.
