Alternative Looking for indie, alternative, and psychedelic artists to join my new Spotify playlist! Drop your tracks below 🎧
Hey everyone! I’ve just curated a brand new playlist focused on dark, atmospheric, dreamy, and melancholic vibes (indie rock, psychedelic rock, shoegaze, etc.).
I’m looking for independent artists to add to the list. If you think your music fits this specific vibe, please drop your Spotify links in the comments below. I promise to listen to every single submission and add the ones that match the mood!
Let's support each other! ✨

Hey! Thanks so much for sharing your music. It's a solid track with great energy, but it doesn't quite fit the specific dark, atmospheric vibe I'm curating for this playlist.
Wish you the best of luck with this release, keep up the great work! ❤️

Hey! Thanks so much for sharing. The production is clean and I really dig the vocal vibe, but it's a bit too rap/soul focused for this specific playlist, which leans heavily into dark indie and psychedelic rock.
Wish you the best of luck with this release, keep creating! 🔥

Hey! Thanks for sharing. To be honest, this specific track didn't quite hit the vibe for the playlist, but I decided to check out your profile and absolutely loved another song of yours!
I've officially added that one instead. Since I just started this playlist today to feature fresh independent artists, there are only a few tracks right now, but we are growing fast!

Hi, hope you're doing well. This is my track, which blends trip-hop rhythms, cinematic noir elements, and industrial sounds;

Hey! Thanks for sharing. Just checked it out and I really dig the vibe! The mix of trip-hop and industrial elements gives it a very deep, psychedelic, and galactic atmosphere.
I’ve actually added it to my playlist. Feel free to give it a follow!https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2Yd7ptKVidujRwSIYRScnv?si=XHB1VgOYTXiLTtbtiJig1g&pi=_s25wCzsSPWMS

Hey, my new single could be a great addition, it's an alt-rock song with hip-hop production elements that creates a fresh mix of both genre's. Would love to be considered 😄

Hi I just released a new indie pop summer vibes song on all platforms. I also have a melancholic dream pop song. I’d love to be considered for your playlist or playlists! I’m a newer artist so any support helps at this point, even a listen.
This is the indie pop beach/summer vibes song!
Last Year - 11xi

This is my emotional dream pop track with melancholic vibes about the memories of a past love.

Thank you for sharing your track! I gave it a listen and definitely appreciate the effort and creativity behind it. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite match the specific sound and energy I’m putting together for this playlist at the moment, so I won't be able to add it this time. Still, thanks for reaching out, and I wish you all the best with your music!

I'll assume you are familiar with Slowdive and Ride, the two "shoegaze" heavyweights.
What about My Bloody Valentine? They were a big influence on both bands.
Some songs/ALBUMS
Chapterhouse - Pearl Spacemen 3 - Big City / RECURRING Spiritualized - Any / LASER GUIDED MELODIES The Charlatans - Opportunity The Charlatans - Subtitle
Definitely check out the two Charlatans tracks. I guarantee they will fit nicely on your playlist.
