What is indie style music?

Indie style music, also known as independent music or alternative music, refers to music produced and distributed by independent record labels or self-released by artists without the support of a major record label. It encompasses various genres and subgenres, including indie pop, indie rock, indie folk, and more, and is often characterized by its DIY ethic and non-commercial nature. Many indie artists have achieved success and recognition through word-of-mouth, grassroots promotion, and online platforms.
