Indie Music Filter: Best Of October 2015 (PLAYLISTS)

October is always one of the best months for new music. Like previous years, instead of scrambling to find enough songs to round out a playlist, I was forced to cut a few songs that I featured this month on the blog, but just didn’t fit right on the playlist. The result though is a fantastic mix that I hope you enjoy. Whether you prefer to listen via Soundcloud, Rdio or Spotify, I’ve got some brand new tunes from RAC, Niki & The Dove, Phoria, Hot Chip and many more.

LISTEN: “What I Want” by MIAMIGO

Have you heard the latest single from Brighton based duo MIAMIGO? “What I Want” is a modern dose of pop with 80s influences, written about “a restless wait and the virtue of patience that battles inhibitions and alter-egos, dreams and delusions.” Look for this track off an upcoming EP.

Currently Listening To: Miamigo

Dodging the cold weather here with an hour in my living room, catching up on the blogs and looking for what I might have missed last week. This track (via Josh at Crack in The Road) peaked my interest, a song from Brighton “dark pop” duo Miamigo.
