For fans of indie and alternative music.

For now there’s no real rules of Lemmy’s indieheads except these guidelines from the original subreddit:

We are purposely vague on a definition of “indie”. In general, music & news posts from these genres are not allowed:

Mainstream Rock/Metal Mainstream Pop Mainstream Hip Hop/R&B Mainstream Electronic & EDM

This is to encourage posts with music from more independent & underground artists. Experimental music & underground acts that exist within the banned genres will be allowed, at the discretion of the mods.

Feel free to discuss features you'd like to see on this community here. All ideas welcome!

I've been making a habit of visiting smaller artists' Spotify profiles to find their own personal playlists. Greg from Cheekface has a few nice playlists that get updated time to time. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4a8I8hdJbw9BYf4ouaJFCs?si=cFhgUCN0RxO7FHJG3XpVpQ

Gets me outside of the Spotify echo chamber, without going too far for my tastes.
