This was my playlist during college for the indie tracks. Haven't updated it but I used the move itunes playlist to spotify feature before so hopefully everything works. I believe that around 2011-2013 was the best years of indie music. 

Hi!

Would you consider music in Spanish in playlists?

If you like discovering, check this out!

Hey! Why don't you try these two?

 

Keaton Henson: Quiet music, very powerfull lyrics but not stuff that'll make you want to boogie. Give Charon a try.

Car Seat Headrest: Energetic and fun although the lyrics are worthwhile too. Try Times to Die and Drunk Drivers/Killer Whales.

Check out CKENT from Atlanta he is the leader of the youth

If you enjoy easy listening, meaningful songs, I recommend Jon Bellion's The Human Condition album. Also, make sure you give his acoustics a listen ;D.

 

 

I think you may also enjoy this track, by AFTRHR.

 

Two Door Cinema Club are the most popular of my suggestions, and I really enjoy their songs. From the same album of the track I'm linking below (disc 2), I also recommend the live version of Undercover Martyn. I personally enjoy it better than the studio version from the previous album.

 

 For now, I guess that's it 😛

If I think/remember of anything else I'll make sure to tell you about it ;D

Definitely!

 

Check out London based producer Eskil Dante's debut-EP "3.AM"
