Independent music (also commonly known as indie music, or simply indie) is music produced independently from commercial record labels or their subsidiaries;[1] this may include an autonomous, do-it-yourself approach to recording and publishing.
As a genre term, "indie" may or may not comprise independently produced music. Many independent music artists do not fall into a single defined musical style or genre, with their self-published music being able to be categorized into diverse genres without the expectations associated with commercial music.
