CYBER10 Alternative Mixtape is the first compilation of CYBER10 covering genres as indie, alternative rock and pop and related sub-genres. Following the pattern of the other compilations, bands from many parts of the world joined CYBER10 to create this new project. Each of this artists below are worthy to be listened because even though some of them share the same genre, they got their musical particularities, I managed to find bands with influences of heavy/rock and some others with electro influences, what makes the sequence very interesting. This journey starts with December Days in a coldplay-like track and finishes with Matleena Sirén with her deep harmonies, enjoy!

December Days (São Paulo)
Myspace
December Days is the alternative/indie influenced project of Diogo Peres, from São Paulo, according to the artist: Life sometimes can be heavy, dark and twisty. That was me in 2007, when a thunderstorm passed through my life, hopes and dreams and made me feel completely hopeless. Music has always been my shield from storms, that's how December Days was born. It was just a escape from everything, and now has become everything. Enjoy as you walk over the pages of my life.
Luna Spark was an indietronic synth/folk rock solo/collaborative project/band based in Auckland, and sometimes Hamilton, New Zealand. Confusing enough? luna spark was based on the songs and efforts of tracey exenola, which is me. Your narrator. That voice speaking in your head as you read this. ALL luna spark music is *free* to download, so go nuts. That’s everything two EPs and six albums worth of music.
