SHREM'S LIST OBSESSION: Top 10 Hottest Newcomers in 2012

Here's another one of my über-nerdy lists. There'll be plenty of them between now and the beginning of January as it's time to combine, compile, compare, rank and score everything that happened in the course of 2012 in music. This chart is entirely dedicated to all the most groundbreaking and talented newcomers. The innovation, the finesse, the originality, the recklessness, the creativity. It's all here. It was a year of duo's and two rather fabulous ladies whose careers really picked up in 2012 after guest featuring on the very same album back in 2011... Have a look my darlings and please let me know who'd make your list of this year's most promising new acts in music.
