First Place Winner: u/FarWolverine49585 “Epic Indie/Folk/Alt to die for”

This week's first-place winner is u/FarWolverine49585 This playlist is a deeply personal collection of folk, indie, alternative, and country songs that the creator considers some of their all-time favorites. Rather than filling it with whatever fits the genre, each song has earned its place because of the connection the creator has with it. Some tracks are more recognizable, while others have barely any plays, making the playlist feel like a mix of familiar artists and hidden gems waiting to be discovered.

Songs like Mumford & Sons’ “Just Smoke” and “Blind Leading The Blind” bring a powerful folk-rock sound, while Harrison Storm’s “Be Slow” and “Run” create a softer, more reflective atmosphere. Tracks such as Hollow Coves’ “Ran Away” and Old Sea Brigade’s “Better Days” continue that emotional, acoustic feel throughout the playlist. What makes this collection especially meaningful is that many of these songs helped the creator through difficult moments in their life. If you love emotional folk and indie music or are looking for lesser-known songs that might become new favorites, this playlist is definitely worth exploring.

Second Place Winner: u/Jambo-the-Hibee "Ethereal Punk Playlist"

This week's second-place winner goes to u/Jambo-the-Hibee. This playlist explores the dreamy, atmospheric side of punk and post-punk, inspired by Radio 6’s feature on “ethereal punk.” The songs blend hazy production, hypnotic guitars, and moody vocals to create a nostalgic, almost otherworldly sound.

The Durutti Column’s “Sketch for Summer” brings a soft, delicate feel, while Cocteau Twins’ “Lorelei” adds a lush, dreamlike atmosphere. Echo & the Bunnymen’s “The Killing Moon,” along with tracks from Wire and Suicide, gives the playlist a darker and more experimental edge.

I'm trying to create a fall playlist for when I go back to University. I'm open to all genres; just anything that gives a fall vibe would be perfect! Even better if you have some Halloween vibe songs to suggest as well! Thank you!

I want to make a playlist to listen to calm any anxiety and realize everything is going to be ok even in hard situations. The vibe I'm going for is more slow and emotional (Radiohead, The Sundays, Lana Del Rey) but I am really open to any genre! 

Please drop your recs down below. I greatly appreciate it!

I really want to create a playlist with all the best rock songs! I enjoy listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd and Led Zeppelin but I also always love a good alt rock band like Nirvana. So anything that fits that vibe would be perfect!

Please drop your recommendations!! Maybe I'll even find a new favorite song!
