As the final days of 2011 play out Tronic is looking back on another amazing year of electronic music by the heavyweights on the scene.
Starting off with a couple of vids we have M83. A favorite amongst Tronic, he blew us away with his new album "Hurry up we are Dreaming".
Reso being one of the titans of Dubstep released some new music this year which was as usual top quality. For all the gamer geeks out there you may recognise the title and samples used in this one!
And one final video which may just blow your mind. AaraabMuzik has burst on the scene this year with his hip hop trance styed electronic. Built around samples he mashes out his music on the trusty old MPC (something we are familiar with in Tronic Towers) Anyway enjoy the beast at work remixing some Skrillex live.
So continuing in this vein we present our traditional top 5 lists. If you are struggling for something to listen to we don't think any one of the below artists will disappoint your electronic thirst.
