1 January 2013 Risey tops the charts in 2012

Happy new year! The download figures are in and we can confirm that Risey topped our download chart for 2012 with his tune Memories of Thailand (the Beat Doctor remix). Risey's track was released back in 2007 and was our 4th most downloaded tune that year, but hasn't featured in the chart since and has made a remarkable comeback after featuring on our Free Music Archive compilation and several high profile web videos over the last year. In second place, Psychadelik Pedestrian's Coral Reef has shot up the chart from being at number 20 in 2011 after also receiving exposure on YouTube. Psychadelik Pedestrian was also the most downloaded artist overall, with Redmann following in second place.

In 2012, we had a record 156,672 downloads, and this doesn't include download figures for all external websites. Thanks to everyone for listening to our music and help us to keep the vibe alive in 2013!

You can view the full download chart for 2012 and previous years here.

2 January 2012 Redmann tops 2011 download chart

The stats are in and this time around Redmann has blown away the competition and taken four of the top five places in the 2011 Download Chart, with his chillout remix of Plasma in pole position. A surprise third place goes to Redmann's 2007 track Born Into It, which never featured in the chart first time around but received additional promotion in 2011 after featuring in Alex Cherney's Ocean Sky Timelapse video.

Psychadelik Pedestrian takes the second place slot with Tears In My Heart, and surprisingly secures several other places with tracks from his 2008 album, which proved a popular download choice last year.
