Brisbot Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Well not exactly an equivalent. Just wondering as WATMM has been useful in getting my music out there. I am wanting to help a friend of mine by finding a forum kind of like WATMM, but instead of electronic music, it's more guitar/indie/acoustic music. Think Sufjan Stevens.

mcbpete Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Am I right in thinking there was indeed another message board called 'WATMM' or 'We Are The Music Makers' but was for a different genre of music ? Sure I didn't dream it ....

Brisbot Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Well I guess WATMM is 'literally' for indie music. But it's better to think of it as a left field electronic music forum isn't it? I associate indie with guitary/folky/sufjan-y stuff Quote Am I right in thinking there was indeed another message board called 'WATMM' or 'We Are The Music Makers' message board that was for a different genre of music ? speaking of which, is the WATMM reddit affiliated with this forum?

Are there seriously no like.. general indie music forums? Why are there forums for specific bands? :\ Quote I too would be interested in such a forum. Starting to look like a dream :\ I will say, the only place I can think of for my friend to post his music would be on Reddit, like the indie subreddit ( http://reddit.com/r/indie/ ) where you can post your music.

But the forum is still predominantly left field electronic, and I'm curious about finding a forum that's predominantly indie. I'm surprised that there isn't a popular forum dedicated to Indie music, indie music artists, etc. It's weird. There has been a forum for everything up to this point in my life. Also, indie music is notably more popular than IDM, making it even more confusing Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/90351-is-there-an-indie-music-forum-equivalent-to-watmm/#findComment-2431987 Share on other sites More sharing options...
QQQ Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) not sure if it still exists but i remember purevolume being decent. had boards for different genres and the music knowledge was pretty good in general. used to browse it when i was a teen and it got me into a lot of music that shaped my teenage years (mostly post-hardcore and "real" screaming/emo). was one of the first places i heard about BoC too. think there was an indie board? just had a little look on google and it looks like they've changed the site a ton from when i used it. looks like more of a SoundCloud type thing now. couldn't find the forum.

Yeah I couldn't find the forum either. I signed up and browsed a bit. It also looks like you wouldn't be able to post your own music. Looks like WATMM is special. I find it weird there are no indie forums like this. I mean there are hip hop, rock, and jazz forums, but indie? nope.

Braintree Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 People that are into this kind of music are more likely to be found online. If they do have a forum for indie music then they're probably all standing around smoking cigarettes and trying to one-up each other by listing an even more obscure band.

Well you'd think there would be a forum for the people making the stuff to discuss techniques and stuff... Then again you are at least partly right.
