Whatever season it is, i found a home of timeless amazing indie music.

Thank you so much, Alex and Beth, for featuring two of our label's artists, Will Killen 1:15:37 and Tayrn 22:44 in your new compilation. ❄⛄ I hope everyone enjoys the mix as much as we do and I wish you all a lovely weekend. Stay healthy, stay in bed and listen to music ☕

this...this is Christmas. i can just feel it in the whole vibe. this is the feeling you get when you wake up on Christmas morning. when you smell Christmas breakfast cooking downstairs. snow dancing outside on the grass and the porch. the feeling is immaculate.

Thank you for including my song 'Wake Up' 22:44 in this beautiful playlist :) Hope you all have a great weekend

megan daws is perfect. relaxing music . i wish she will be more famous .

"Thanks for the feature on this compilation Alex and Beth." No jokes this is some beautiful sound.

What a privilege to be on this playlist! Thank you for adding ‘Sunlight Moonlight’ (57:06).

Hey everybody, how's it goin'? I hope everybody is having a great Friday. Thank God Its Friday am I right? I decided to do another review of another one of Alex's playlists. I thought he would upload the winter playlist next month but since it is Christmas, it makes sense to upload it in November. The first song "Northern" by Megan Daws, is a great song for Winter as you can feel the crisp and cold weather outside just by listening to this song. The next song is one that I have already downloaded onto my 2020 number 5 playlist. "Coming Down" by The Hollow Men is a very raw emotional song about the past and looking forward to a better future. The song "Silence" is already one of the best songs of 2020 and now "Coming Down" is a great follow up to it. I can't wait to see a music video to this song. "Falling Stars" by The Light The Heat is another great song follow up to "What We've Been Missing" which has already been featured on another one of Alex's playlists this year. "Falling Stars" is very sensual and I love how the rhythm and melody mash. "Falling" by Richard Walters sounds like a Christmas song with the bells in the background but it's a great song for winter as you can picture a snow like scene outside your house. "Birds" by Jessie Early is about waking up anew and starting over again. I love the beat to this song as well, as it feels like we are about to walk into a new year full of promise and hope. "Ease" by Joel Ansett is a very calming song where you feel like you are at home keeping warm on a cold winter day in January. "Wake Up" by Tayrn has sounds, in the background, that sounds like the wind outside or waves on the ocean. It's hard to tell. It's a song about waking up and starting anew, I feel. We can't do this alone and if we are to start over anew, we need to start over with someone else and not by ourselves. "Still Thinkin' About You" by Zan Fiskum is about thinking about someone you love or care about. "Flower" by Jackson Wooten is a nice acoustic song about the whole world going mad which is topical for the times. The message in this song is too leave it all behind in 2020 and to start anew in 2021. Jackson is reminiscing about a person he once knew and that this person is a flower in the cracks like a ray of hope in this crazy world. "Devil" by SOBI is about the demons that live inside our heads. This song is relatable for people who suffer from mental health and that these people, especially during this time, need all the hope they can get. I can relate to this song as I am a mental health sufferer and this time doesn't help much. However, I still hold onto hope for a better day to come. That day is coming in 2021 and I can't wait. "Blankets of Snow" by Gregor McEwan is an upbeat kind of winter song that is nice to listen to. Now I already have "Sea and Fire" by Harrison Storm but this is the acoustic version which sounds just as nice. I actually wanted to do a song cover of this song on my channel because of the raw emotion in this song that I just love. I, especially, love the second verse of this song. I just love how he just belts this song at the end of the second verse before heading back into the refrain. We all need to chant "Sea and Fire". This song is just incredible. I can't wait to see him perform this live next year. Earth, " I'm sorry for the absence", "I'm sorry for the pain I caused you". "All I Wanted" by Voyageur is a great song where the artist's voice is almost drowned in the music. It is almost like his voice is part of the song. I love this song. "Way Out West" by REUNION is a great song that makes you think of winters pasts and traveling out west. I feel like this song is about finding yourself. "With You" by Cujo Moon is a rich acoustic song about going anywhere with the person you love or care about. I love the unique warping sound used in this song. It is a very calming song that is certainly suitable for winter on a nice sunny winter day. "Sunlight Moonlight" by Ben Brandt is another song that I downloaded recently to my 2020 number 5 playlist. I first heard the song on Indie Music Centre and now I am hearing the song again on this playlist. I just love the great balance of sound in this song and you can almost feel the winter days ahead. "Back Door Run" by Ocie Elliott has a nice organ intro and a nice beat to the song that you can jam too. It makes you reminisce about the good times you had with people, I feel. "Soak Up" by Hush Forever is another calming song that makes you feel a sense of hope in the air. "Soon" by Firewoodisland is a great song for winter as you feel like you are next to the fireplace and having a nice cup of hot chocolate or coco. The song is about being with your loved ones when you look up at the moon at night. It's a nice song. "Nothing Personal" by J Lind is a nice song to listen too when you are studying or just chilling at home. "Bags At Your Feet" by Will Killen is about longing for being with a person whom you haven't seen in a long time. You wait to hear from the person but that person hasn't responded to you yet. "Fireworks" by Axel Flovent is a song that can almost put you to sleep. It is a nice song to listen too. "Leave The Light On" by Matthew Frederick is nice song that makes you feel a sense of hope and makes you feel like you don't want to get out of bed. It's a song for the times and about nothing we can do but cry peacefully. It's hard right now but we'll get through it as we have been saying for months now. It seems like nothing ever changes during this time. This is a song of hope in a dark time. "Open Mouth, Open Lake" by Tom Forbes is a song that makes you feel the season's change and you can almost feel the snow coming down. The song has a great use of musical elements in it as well. Finally, "Arvida" by Meto is a real winter song where you are sitting inside your house watching the snow fall down. It is a nice song to listen to. This song is a great definition of Winter. So this is another review that I decided to write. I hope everyone enjoyed the playlist like I did and I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of their Friday. Take care for now and thank you to Alex and Beth for another great playlist.

Thanks for this wonderful time. Time to read, relax and dream. A wonderful weekend and time for yourself.

Sometimes I get cry, because when I listening to the songs you compile and share with us it makes me feel that I'm in winter time or spring or summer, so magical.. thank you 🎉

The best music to end 2020 on! Very grateful to be featured and thanks to Alex & Beth for supporting new artists like myself. "Open Mouth, Open Lake" 1:27:40 :)

Sie sind sehr gemütlich und entspannend. Vielen Dank und Grüße aus Deutschland.

Greetings to all who are working on Christmas Eve 2020. It is great to have this great music playing. Makes me feel peaceful and in good company. Merry Christmas to you all.

too bad we don't have winter season in the Philippines, but nevertheless love it, it feels like cold rainy nights....and I had a lot of imagination going on by listening to the playlist, thanks so much!!!!!

It snowed in Tucson today (yes...it happens) and I just ran across this music as it was falling. Thank you for a magical moment set to your music!

This is a great playlist with lovely, relaxing music and it will definitely accompany me during the winter. In the background, as you can imagine, a snow scene outside your mountain home with its beautiful winter forest makes me imagine this place with my beloved friends singing these songs together. Have a deep conversation about the stories of each of us, crying, smiling and singing sometimes. It is very energetic and perhaps even relaxing at the same time. I really love all the songs on this amazing winter playlist, but my favorites are "Coming Down" by The Hollow Man; "Birds" by Jessie Early; "Northern" by Megan Daws; "Wake Up" by Taiyrn, "See and Fire" by Harrison Storm, "Fireworks" by Axel Flovent and the calming music that makes you feel a sense of hope in the air: "Soak Up" by Hush Forever.

Merci d'apporter de la chaleur à la fraicheur de l'automne et à cette période morose. Raphaëlle

Let's cherish this moment with playing this in background!💙
