Your Weekly Indie Fix
These are bands or musicians I am digging at the moment, and from whose websites you can download musics:
-
Cloud Cult are pretty random, somewhat pop. Listen to “Outside of Your Skin.”
-
Deathray is half of what used to be Cake, but is now entirely different. Nice indie-pop — I recommend the tracks “White Sleeves” and “The Only One.”
-
Laura Veirs sings and plays ‘indie-folk,’ apparently. It’s slightly country, mostly acoustic stuff, and it’s pretty cool. Go here to get the spectacular “Fire Snakes,” or get a few older tracks from her site.
And some sources for more:
-
Aurgasm is a blog which makes a few tracks available every couple of days; mostly indie-type stuff.
- ScissorKick is another blog, but focussed largely on chilled-out ‘organic electronic’ type music.
Enjoy.
[Update 3/9/05:] I now have the Laura Veirs CD, if anyone is interested in having a listen.

Schweeeet! Keep ‘em comin’ :).
I’ve just subscribed to some of those RSS feeds, and am getting my download on as I type…

Is Laura Veirs single?
