Before I get into my SXSW experiences, I wanted to briefly
mention some of the bands that we have synched lately on the show. In last
weekıs episode, Koopıs ³Come To Me² opened the show. The Swedish
electronic Jazz duo has released only 3 albums in the last 10 years all
sublimely listenable. Also synched were new tracks by some of our best loved
and oft licensed artists, Gomez, Psapp and Anya Marina. Tonightıs program
features unsigned L.A. artists Adam Merrin (some fans might recognize his
other project The 88) and Letıs Go Sailing.
SXSW was both amazing and overwhelming this year. I spoke on a panel with some
of the smartest music fans in the business (Norm Weiner, Bruce Warren, Lynn
Grossman et al.) about breaking artists in 2007. I also attempted to catch
many of the bands we have used on the show. Patrick Watson, The Jealous
Girlfriend, Au Revoire Simone, Peter Bjorn & John all gave memorable
performances. (I had a drink with Bjorn!) Also top 10 ,I keep a list, gigs by
The Low Standards, Menomena, The Broken West and The Sunshine Underground.
Glad to be back though, Iım way too old for Spring Break.
