Comment:

lately i have been noticing that some instruments (the piano, for example) and musical devices (the handclap, for example) tend to transcend any genre. trying my hardest not to favour my typical indie rock bands, i have compiled a selection of songs that i feel are demonstrative of the wide spectrum of musical styles the piano is conducive to! also, admittedly, some of these tracks might only be featuring the 'piano' setting on the synth, but i still believe it was a valiant effort.

Nice collection. Erik Satie at one time was considered as indie as they come.
