Indies with Great Music

Indies tend to follow their own unique path and can often include many interesting and different elements.  There have been several Indie games in which the music has been an extremely strong factor.  If you've ever played either of Supergiant's Indie hits, Bastion and Transistor, you will recognize the similarity in music style and the phenomenally smooth voice of Ashley Barrett.  I can't really say that either of those games are my favorite games to play, but they do have great music.


Transistor


Another really great Indie soundtrack comes from the folks who designed Guacamelee.  The music really echoes the setting for the game--a world set in a Mexican folktale.  Because the game centers on moving between the world of the living and the world of the dead you get a different feeling from the music as you move back and forth.


The next time you're at work and tired of listening to the same old stuff, try out one of these great Indie soundtracks.
