- Help me discover and gather the best indie songs of 2014, until the year has ended!
Below you'll find my playlist: Top 100 Indie Songs 2014
If you find or know of a song that you feel should be on this list, please share it with me here.
- Maybe you have discovered a song that you feel noone else've done?
- Or maybe you feel that one of the songs I've chosen, that another song on that artists album is so much better?
- Or maybe there's a song that you think I may have overlooked? Share! 🙂
I'm putting a lot of time into my playlists and the list is designed as a listen from-start-to-finish (but shuffle works as well ofc).
Indie music; always evolving, searching beyond the mainstream wall, exploring the deep spectrum of creativity, emotion and intelligence. 100 cuts of indie rock, folk, electronica, lo-fi, dreampop, noise rock, and all kinds of genre-bending wonders. These are the top 100 indie songs of 2014, and the list will be perfected until the year has ended.
Enjoy!

Tired tape Machine - Your Ghost ( Not Here - 2014 )
Magic album, really hard to definite in its unicity: a dark orchestral-chamber-folk, dense of psychedelic, progressive and neofolk elements, and post-rock echoes; totally submerged by a absolutely pure, unfathomable and enchanting sadness. ( Melancholy Burning - Bandcamp )
