New Austin Music: Wet Dip, Voxtrot, Resound + SL Houser

Seeing as we’re all living in Austin, somehow, we always have to try and hold up our end of the scene by throwing our weight behind what we love. So, seeing as it’s Friday, there’s a few new releases to get on your radar.

Wet DipSmell of Money – A record filled with twists and turns and odd little moves of frantic punk sounds. A ripper of a record best listened to loud!

S.L. HouserHibiscus EP – We’ve long been fans of Sara Houser’s songwriting, so we’re excited to see where her career goes now that she’s focused on her solo stuff. Release show at Mohawk tomorrow!

VoxtrotNew World Romance – What? Like we’re not going to let you listen to new Voxtrot? They continue to dive into a darker pop realm, and Ramesh’s voice continues to sparkle.

Resound Presents: A Very Homie Holiday – A charity compilation featuring a ton of local acts lending their songs to raise money for Free Lunch ATX. New music each week, until it drops! New Being Dead tune below!

Last Week’s Jams (7.24 – 7.28)

We may have gone a bit overboard last week, as I see that we covered over 25 different tunes last week. But, that being said, we also ran some gosh-darned freaking hits. I loved that new jam from Split System, and have played it well over 50 times at this point. That, and that new track from Prewn pretty much made my week. I mean, there’s new stuff from Woods, Night Drive and all sorts bonus EP coverage for Death Bells and Bedroom Eyes. Plenty of stuff to dig into, so why not get on it, eh?

S.L. Houser Shares Dotted Line Single

I first feel in love with S.L. Houser when she was the lead songwriter in Austin’s Lowin back in the days; I think everyone loved the bands blend of great guitar licks and pop tendencies. As of late, she’s been spending her time holed up working on the forthcoming Hibiscus EP. For my two cents, the way the song’s have been crafted illustrate her grasp on the songwriting, offering tons of empty space, with each spot filled in meticulously, adding maximal emotion. Whether you find the back and forth sway of the bass intoxicating or the twinkling synths that guide us through that cavernous space, you can’t help but notice the fine detailing. We can expect that new EP to drop this fall via Spaceflight Records.
