Welcome! 

What is this thread?

A place to share new discoveries that fits under the broad concept INDIE.

Keep the posts focused on SONGS or PLAYLISTS:

  • Playlists shared here should have the threads theme; the best new indie of 2017.
  • Songs shared here should have been released no more than one month earlier.

This threads definition of INDIE: An umbrella concept of a genres like indie rock, indie folk, indie electronica, indie pop, lo-fi, dreampop, noise rock, shoegaze, and all kinds of genre-bending wonders that is always evolving, searching beyond the mainstream wall, exploring the deep spectrum of creativity, emotion and intelligence (so yeah, the definition is wide and not much of a definition at all).

 

Together we'll help each other discover great new music and build an archive of the best indie songs of the year!

I subscribe to more than 10 podcasts, and follow about 75 different playlists - one of which is Tommy Westers - in order to maintain a fresh supply of new music, listening to approx 300 new songs a week.

 

Each year I listen to more than 10,000 different songs and only about 70-120 songs end up on my list for that year. 

 

This is my (ongoing) playlist of my favorite of 2017 ... so far. 

 

I maintain an ongoing list every year, going back to 2010. I have made those playlists public as well. The lists are never completed. If I find a song which belongs on a list for a previous year I will add it to the playlist for that year. 

 

The main genre\category within the list would be different indie types.

 

Hope you enjoy. If you do, I hope you follow the lists. As I said, they are never completed. Since I am always listening to new music I can very well come across a new song from 5yrs ago.
