Playlist of the Week: Independent Music Playlist by Jon Magnusson

This week’s POTW is Keep Out of the Mainstream – the Best Independent Music, by Jon Magnusson, from Sweden.

I’m sure I’ve already mentioned Jon before, because he’s the person behind the ‘Monster Thread’ community of music artists (which is now over a thousand strong) and the playlist of the same name. Jon’s an indie folk-rock artist, who also draws influences from punk, soul and jazz. Earlier this year, he ran a remix contest of songs from his Always a Rebel album, which had some rather unexpected results for an indie-folk artist (if you ask me, anyway).
