What makes a track "indie" sonically?

Indie is more aesthetic than strictly defined — typically alt-leaning songwriting, less-than-radio-polish production, and a slightly off-mainstream sensibility. Specify the subgenre (indie pop, indie rock, dream pop) for tighter targeting.

Can I get bedroom-pop lo-fi production?

Yes. Prompt "bedroom-pop production, lo-fi warmth, tape saturation, intimate vocal, jazz chord extensions" and the AI delivers Clairo / Boy Pablo-era home-recorded character.

Will indie rock guitars sound authentic?

Yes. Prompt "indie rock guitar, jangly, Strokes-era distortion, garage-rock revival" and the AI delivers the right amount of edge without metal aggression or radio polish.

Is dream pop the same as shoegaze?

Adjacent but distinct. Dream pop emphasizes melody and atmosphere (Beach House). Shoegaze adds wall-of-noise guitars (My Bloody Valentine). Specify which for the target sound.

Indie pop: 115–130. Indie rock: 125–145. Indie folk: 90–110. Bedroom pop: 95–115. Dream pop: 80–100. Indie electronic: 90–110.
