Welcome to the Mitxoda Vibe. Pull up a chair, kick off your shoes, and stay a while 🌿✨
Hey there, wanderer of sound! I’m Mitxoda, a lifelong music-maker,
tireless record-hunter, and host of Le Salon Indie de Mitxoda,
the weekly radio refuge that turns every Friday, 4 PM in Brussels
into a soft-lit listening party. In French.
Le Salon Indie de Mitxoda is a weekly radio show dedicated to independent music:
emerging artists, underground scenes, unexpected sounds, and songs that deserve more than a quick scroll.
Indie rock, alternative pop, electro, progressive, folk, experimental textures:
the show follows curiosity first.
Week after week, the show has become a regular space for discovery, connection, and support around
independent music. It is not just a playlist: it is a listening room, a meeting point, and a way to help
songs travel beyond their original circle.
The show is broadcast on OTAT247 Radio and continues to grow through radio collaborations
in Europe, including My Indie Radio in France and Magic Music Rádió in Hungary.

This blog is the show’s comfy backstage sofa: a place where playlists sprawl, stories mingle,
and the kettle is always on. If the broadcast is the gig, think of this space as the after-show hang
where we swap vinyl tips, trade demos, and laugh about the drum fill that almost derailed the first
live session. True story, promise.
What you’ll find here
- Fresh finds & deep cuts – the tracks that made me grin like a kid in a candy shop before I even hit “play” on air.
- Speaker-corner musings – thoughts on DIY culture, bedroom-pop philosophy, and why distortion pedals should probably come with a warning label.
- Label spotlights & artist love letters – short reads, deeper dives, and affectionate detours into scenes worth following.
- Behind-the-mic moments – photos, voice notes, playlists, and the occasional coffee-stained set list straight from Studio B.
The mood we’re chasing
Picture a low-slung couch, fairy lights looping overhead, and a stack of well-thumbed fanzines on the table.
Conversations drift from French yé-yé psychedelia to Japanese city-pop, then veer suddenly toward the best
way to mic a toy piano. Nobody judges, everybody shares, and time kindly slows to the tempo of a Shuggie Otis groove.
That’s the energy I pour into every broadcast, and it’s exactly what will soak these pages.

For independent artists
If you make music outside the usual circuits, Le Salon Indie de Mitxoda is open to discovery.
The show highlights artists with a real voice, a clear intention, or simply a song that catches the heart
and refuses to let go.

I listen to every track.
Please complete the form with as much detail as possible. Make sure each MP3 includes the correct
track title, artist name, album title, cover image, and useful metadata such as ISRC, website, and release information.
If you need help encoding or tagging your MP3, you may need to learn a bit first, because I won’t be able
to adapt every file manually.
