Playlists for Indie Pop

Indie Pop Playlist

Indie pop music from international and UK independent labels.

Indie pop (also typeset as indie–pop or indiepop) is a music genre and subculture that combines guitar pop with DIY ethic in opposition to the style and tone of mainstream pop music. It originated from British post-punk in the late 1970s and subsequently generated a thriving fanzine, label, and club and gig circuit.

Modest Mouse, Bon Iver, Arcade Fire, The Smiths, Belle and Sebastian, The National, Mac DeMarco – these artists represent the indie music scene, and yet they are all different. … Indie pop, indie rock, and indie folk are all genres, and they are all related, but musically they are different.
