WHAT EXACTLY DOES INDIE MEAN?
I thought it was just "independent artist", as in 1 person making their own music. Sufjan for example...
>>60562840
independent as in not tied to any label. Nowadays it's just a word to describe inoffensive, pussy-white-guy-with-a-guitar music
>>60562840
It's music made without the need of a major record label.
It has nothing to do with the amount of people in the project, nor the amount of listeners that album or artist gets.
>>60562840
No, it means independent artist as in not backed by a major label. A lot of bigger indie labels have distro deals with majors though, so the definition has gotten pretty fuzzy
>>60562840
No, it's "independent artist" as in independent from a 'large' or corporate record label. Thus granting the artist full artistic freedom, often causing a different sound from more commercial artists.
It's way too often not used correctly in music, so it's become a retarded and annoying buzzword.
