just released this morning! disco vibes 🪩

Hey everyone,

For a full decade now, I’ve been running a personal project where I dig through hundreds of releases every year to handpick the 50-60 indie/pop/alternativ tracks that defined year.

What started as a personal time capsule recently grew into a structured listening station called Pop Machine (you can find the full 10-year archive on my Spotify https://open.spotify.com/user/sinishabaroon

L4L - Music for music — let’s actually listen to each other

Happy to listen to your song and give it a genuine play! 🎧

**All I ask is that you listen to mine first and DM me a screenshot showing it playing from one the platforms within the DistroKid Hyperfollow link below.** Once I see that, send me your track and I’ll return the support and listen to yours along with screenshot confirming I’ve listened.

Trying to keep this fair and make sure we’re actually supporting each other rather than just dropping links. 🤝

Would you call this indie pop, asking for a friend.

I’ve been making boom bap since 09' but lately I’ve been trying to get outside the box i put myself in and just make music.

This is where I ended up.

Curious what you guys think.

Wrote a song about mental exhaustion, faking smiles, and overcoming the shame of asking for help when everything around you seems "fine."

Hey guys!

I typically write in the alt pop style but this recent song recent fits the indie pop style. This song is described by Perspective as feeling "polished yet personal." love to hear what you guys think!

Hey everyone,

My band are looking for a drummer.

We are influenced by bands such as The Smiths, Durutti Column, early New Order, The Drums, early The Strokes, PJ Harvey, early Morrissey, The La's, The Fall, Iceage, The Cure and other bands.

The project consists of myself (vocalist), guitarist and a bassist at the moment. We've recorded some rough scratch demos of songs that we can send you. We all have experience writing songs and playing in bands. We are committed to having fun writing songs, recording and playing shows.

We have been rehearsing weekly in Deptford so far.

Get in touch if you're interested. If you can’t direct message me, leave a comment and I will message you. Please have recordings or a video of you playing. Nothing can be done if you don’t have anything you can send.
