IMAS 2010: Take a look at Club Fonograma's Ballot!



Congratulations to all the winners at this year’s Indie-O Music Awards, particularly to Club Fonograma’s favorites Hello Seahorse!, Furland, Los Amparito, Mexican Institute of Sound, Marvin & Vicente Gayo. As you might remember we were up for Blog of the Year, we didn’t win, but it was great to see our name among the nominees, it’s particularly special considering we are a US-based blog, so it feels great to get some love from the jury (comprised of musicians, journalists & people in the industry). You can see the full list of winners HERE. But just to build on our ego, here is our dream line of what your CF editor (@carlosreyes) voted for as part of the jury.

Once again, this is not the list of winners; it’s my personal ballot. You can download the full list of ballots HERE.
