December K-indie Post: The Girls Edition Pt. 2

Spacecowboy feat. Richard Parkers - Reason

Richard Parkers' lovely voice returns to our countdown in this collab that takes what could be a straightforward ballad and turns it into something more spacey and abstract-sounding.

Eunkyo (은교) - Beautiful Mistakes

Along the same vein as the previous track, Eunkyo's "Beautiful Mistakes" combines ballady vocals with more ambient instrumentation.

Thanks so much OP! I've found lots of amazing music through you and it has rekinded my interest in K-indie :D so thanks!

I wanted to ask you too, where do you get infor on new K-indie music releases etc? And do you know of any blogs etc that review this genre of music?

[kyokomurasaki.livejournal.com]

Mostly I just follow a bunch of indie channels/labels on Youtube. Mirrorball Music is pretty much the most comprehensive aggregator, but there are a bunch of little labels releasing stuff too: Happy Robot, Magic Strawberry Sound, Young Gifted & Wack, Danal, kt music, LoveRock, even Bugs and 1theK. If there's an artist you like, it helps to follow them/their label's YT channel. I literally listen to music all day at work so I pretty much just sift through everything that comes through my subscriptions.

The only blog I know of is Korean Indie (http://www.koreanindie.com/) but they tend to post somewhat infrequently; they're good for finding stuff you probably wouldn't see otherwise and they do reviews.

These posts are my saving grace. I'm always up for more women in artists.
