I work at a small and independent coffee place and have the power to pick the music. What should I play? No memes or swears.

Andrew Bird and the Mysterious Production of Eggs

Insect Warfare

play this youtube.com/watch?v=7lw1MrMHQ9o

Play early Animal Collective because hipsters love that band

Soundtrack to Dune

Loveless, Funeral, Currents, The Glow Pt. 2, Crystal Castles I, Since I Left You

nice, added

it's just as much of a mom place than a hipster place bc it's not in a cool city

these are good. Currents gets played all the time already and I'm kinda sick of it tho. Also, The Glow Pt., 2 doesn't work that well as background music imo. not trying to cry while I work

Some other stuff I'm thinking about is Plantasia and Pet Sounds

bob dylan, joan baez and the kingsmen

Sufjan Stevens.
This would be great for a coffee shop.
Chill and very talented.

To add to this some MaybeSheWill
Shoe gaze shit.

Just avoid anything on Carrie and Lowell lest you want the soccer moms to start slashing their wrists or complaining about the lyrics about slashing wrists.

Yeah just queue up a best-of-indie-folk playlist and pretend it's 2008 forever...
just remind me never to come in to your shop

WATCH IT SUF

Rhye - literally anything by them is great.

noooo I'm trying to avoid this pls. I don't even like Iron and Wine

Yo La Tengo (safer) - I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One
Beach House (older) - s/t
James Blake (upbeat stuff) - Overgrown, maybe some of s/t as well
Ariel Pink (well-vetted)
John Maus seconded Shlohmo, maybe

These are all pretty different, might just serve as inspiration at the very least.
