Club Transmediale is famous for its diverse line-up, dedicating the different nights of the festival to specific genres or topics. With 'Overlap' being the motto of this years 11th edition, the breadth and scope of musical styles on display is as dazzling as ever, ranging from experimental noise and neo-classic to broken beats and disco-pop.

'Overlap' further not only stands for the cross-overs in music itself, but also for the presence of music in other media forms, be it theatre, film, contemporary dance, or video games. CTM.10 dedicates lectures, screenings and performances to each of these areas during the course of its 10 day programme

With such an exhaustive schedule and the all-new festival locations it's all to easy to miss something: to aid you in your festival planning for the next 10 days, we have compiled this small guide containing definite must-sees, insider tips and some of our personal favourites.

As 2009 draws to a close we can't help but get all misty-eyed and start to reminisce over what an outstanding year it has been for new, exciting music.

We'd like to take advantage of the end of year quiet spell to look back on 31 of our favourite tracks for 2009. To tip our hats in appreciation to all of you who have supported zero" this year, we are giving one of these 31 tracks away for free download every day the entire month of December!

Each day a different code will be given out - sometimes on a zero" page, sometimes on one of the blogs we enjoy reading.

01/01/10: 2009 has ended and so has Thirty to Zero. Thanks to everyone who participated, spread the word and gave us feedback - we hope you enjoyed our selection. More good stuff: During January we are offering 50 of our favourite albums of 2009 for a special price - so happy digging and hope to see you around!
