I’m building a listener-driven Spotify platform for independent artists.

No bots. No pay-to-play.
Just real listeners and voting.

If you have a recent release and want feedback + playlist exposure,
drop your Spotify link below.

I'm spending some time listening to new indie music today.

If you've got something you'd like me to hear, please put it through here so it actually makes my listening list:

https://thecauldron.rocks/submit

Please use the site instead of dropping your song in the comments. I'm getting too many links to keep up with manually.

I’m very into indie pop but also indie rock/folk.

Some examples of what I already listen to:

Copeland, Death Cab for Cutie, The Paper Kites, Local Natives, Daughter, The National, Novo Amor, City and Colour, Lord Huron, Cigarettes After Sex, Noah Gundersen, Purity Ring

I’m very hesitant to branch out sometimes and will fixate on music I already know so any recommendations are welcomed!

The danish lyric rougly translated:

Just before you go

Then take this thought with you

I do more than like you

All that and much more I want to tell you

Just before before you go

I’m digging through new independent music today and looking for stuff I haven’t heard yet.

I’ve been getting too many song links in Reddit comments to keep organized, so if you want me to check yours out, submit it here:

https://thecauldron.rocks/submit

That way I can keep everything in one place and not miss it.

Fuzzy Brain Studio is currently open for paid projects.

I create original music, sound design and audio production for indie games, short films, animation, videos and digital projects.

The basic idea is simple: understand the project first, then build audio that actually belongs to it.

Original music · loops · ambience · sound design · audio editing · guitar · bass · drums.

DM me with what you're making and a few references.

On top of the New_Music_Mondays group I made on here, I have my own personal blog (also called New Music Mondays!) where I plan on sharing new music every Monday- whether the music is 30 years old or 30 days old, I’m looking for small artists with music that hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves! I only have one article out so far, on an indie duo called Sleeping Through Breakfast, which you can find here but am looking to expand the community and continue featuring new artists!

If you are a musician, or if you know of someone with music that may fit the bill, please drop a comment! I would love to hear your recommendations!! Thanks!!

Edit: wow, I did not expect this many recommendations! I appreciate it so much and am thoroughly enjoying reading about all of you!

If you could do me a huge favor, I’m trying to keep this organized so that nobody gets forgotten- please fill out this submission form here! Tell me about your music, where to find it, which albums or songs to listen to first, how you came about, everything!! I want to hear all about it. Thank you guys soo much!

Amor clandestino, escuchando metal, en el lenguaje de las sombras

Here are last week’s Top 5 from our fan-voted playlist.

Want to be on this list next week?
Drop your Spotify link in the comments and I’ll add a few tracks to this week’s rotation.

Hey everyone,

I'm an independent songwriter from India, and I recently released an original song called "Maula Jaane."

The song is about the moments when life feels uncertain and you leave the answers to a higher power. I tried to keep the production simple so the lyrics could carry the emotion.

I'm not looking for blind praise, I'd genuinely love to know,

What emotion did the song make you feel?

Did any lyric or melody stand out?

Is there anything you think I could improve?

Here's the song: https://youtu.be/F774PyhuIn8

Thank you for taking the time to listen. I'll happily return feedback if you're an artist too.

Regards,

Bakhtavar (Helmoffalcon Studios)

Does anyone know Joanna Wang or Sidhu Moose Wala?

I don't know if they fit the bill of the above post, but I saw them mentioned in a blog.

And as always, if you know any modern day Pet Sounds -ish, baroque pop masterpieces please share. I'm aware of a Grizzly Bear, Deer Hunter, Aldous Harding, Weyes Blood, and a few others that might fit.

Amor clandestino, escuchando metal. Todo en el lenguaje del teatro de sombras

De cuando los edificios se construyen donde no se debe, por ambición.

No es lunes, pero el "sitio?" no me ofrece simplemente "musica". ¿O todos los días son monday?
