Just made some thoughts on my favourite indie songs of the year and compiled a playlist of 44 of my favourite indie songs of the year.

Here is the playlist:

And here is the tracklist:

What are your favourite indie songs of the year?

Edited November 13, 2025Nov 13 by DaTilt

Strong approval for HotWax, Heartworms and Rosalia from that playlist.

Far too soon for me to think about compiling my own though

I always find November to be a bit early for a year list but that's just me.

'F Me Eyes' is a great choice for an Ethel song this year.

Well, I think not to many will in the last 1.5 months of the year as December is usally the weakest month fir new music of the year. I could still opt in an afterglow to it ;).

Dream Woman being on there ❤️

Wow, lots of songs I seem to have missed this year despite thinking I was quite up on indie music! Talk To Me was certainly something a little different from Damiano David's usual though, and say something is a fairly nice track (think that's the only one in your list that made my Personal Chart as well)

Nice seing "Talk To Me", "The Sofa", "Parachute", "Dracula", "Bug", "Zombie", "Back To Me", "Shapeshifter", "Die Happy", "Dream Machine", "Everybody Scream", "Berghain" and "Just Two Girls".

Great list!

Take care.

P.S. I also am starting my Year-End list, starting with the albums and then the songs.

Would be interesting for me to see a list of your favourite indie songs of the year.

This is just the indie part of it I compiled in middle November. The idea was to create a tracklist called "Now That's What DaTilt Calls Indie Hits Of 2025". ;) My official Top 100 will land next weekend after my last Top 50 of the year has been landed next wednesday and the last points are given. I have a 1 to 80 point system giving points to all songs in my Top 40 each week.

The Sofa is a good pick! Though my favorite track from the album is Bloom Baby Bloom x
