11th Hour SXSW Recommendations
Let’s do this in a quick and dirty way. Songs selected courtesy the ATH IT Dept.
Nightbus – I have vinyl, shameless plug for Welcome to the Jangle (Sunday at Tweedy’s). “Ascension” and “Angles Mortz” (below) capture the vibe from the Manchester Duo. Are ya mad for it?
Chalk – Belfast’s Chalk has been featured here at ATH a couple times, I am bracing myself for menacing melody and heavy beats. LFG.
Modeselektor – Speakeasy will play host on Saturday night to early 2000s synth vibes straight out of the East Berlin scene.
Night Drive – To know them is to love them, annual tradition of a SXSW dance party a Valhalla is becoming a thing, see ya tomorrow night (3/12).
Jet Cemetery – March 14th day party at 13th Floor, it is a record release in the chaos of SXSW. I have the vinyl already (I pre-pre-ordered) and it is one of my favorite things so far this year.
