Don’t forget to check out the other installments of The Mostly Music 2025 Playlist!
The Mostly Music 2023 Playlist, Pt. 3 (Updated 9/10/23)
So I have been remiss and have not posted all of the singles that have been added to parts one and two of my 2023 playlist, but from this post onward, I plan to stay on top of the third installment for the rest of the year. (This is quite the massive undertaking; as previously stated, in 2024, I will be dividing the playlists into more digestible segments – perhaps grouping only three months of singles into each rather than four.)
If you are interested, I will link the other two playlists at the end of this post. For now, here is the first group of singles I added to part three. I usually do two weeks’ worth at a time, as some weeks there are very few releases to share.
Also, this list is far from comprehensive. I tend to focus on independent bands/artists who are not backed by major labels. I’m sure I miss an entire world of tracks by other indie artists/bands. You can feel free to comment with a few, if you’d like!
- Hitten: “Mr. Know It All”
- A Scent Like Wolves: “Sunscape”
- Sleep in Motion: “Terminal”
- Sekond Skyn: “Wounds”
- Mac Saturn: “Mint Julep”
- Unveil the Strength: “Foundations”
- DRVID: “Oblivion”
- Moonfall: “On the Shore”
- Waiting at the Bridge: “Plague Walker”
- Citizen Soldier: “Good Enough for God”
- Heartsick: “Eight Years”
- Bear Within Us: “Down”
- 9th Planet: “Prey”
- Aeolian: “The Miracle”
- Red Devil Vortex: “Walking the Wire”
