Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Deerhunter Game of Diamonds
From their latest EP 'Rainwater Cassette Exchange', this song sees the Atlanta art-rockers turn acoustic for a haunting and sparse ballad.
The Glass I Wanna Be Dancin'
A simple chorus line, house piano and electro bleeps : propulsive dance music from the Berlin/New York duo.
Michael Jackson Cheater (demo)
Recorded in 1987, this largely unheralded gem somehow failed to make the cut on Jackson's 'Bad' album.
Clipse Eyes On Me
Pharrell and Keri Hilson guest on a teaser from Clipse's forthcoming new record, Til The Casket Drops, but it's the tune that makes it stand out.
Beck Waiting For My Man
Beck's online covers project continues apace with a discordant, skewed take on the Velvet Underground.
Tom Waits Ice Cream Man
As we all melt in the heat, Tom Waits' sprightly crooning from 1973 is just the ticket.
