We started the day at Brush Park, where two day parties took place: The Aussie BBQ, which showcases Australian artists every year and the Sounds Of Spain party. After a quick visit to the first one, we hung out a little at the Spanish party, where they serve delicious paella.[…]
Nashville based quintet Hardcastle releases “Millennial Attraction” after “Paralyzed” and “No Big Deal”, two beautifully crafted indie rock songs. The gorgeous “Millennial Attraction” kicks it up a notch with its catchy chorus and instant appeal. While the lyrics might suggest a melancholic track when lead vocalist Graham Laderman declares “you hold me close to the telephone[…]
Time to get serious at SXSW (and have some fun too): for breakfast, we went to Rainey Street to see Norwegian producer Coucheron at the Paradigm Talent Agency Cookout. He does catchy energetic dance songs, albeit currently without a live singer. After that we were caught in surprise by Australian[…]

“Sun Data” is a guitar drenched, moody track and contemporary psych-rock at its finest! The song is as fierce as it is melodic and rather catchy too. “Sun Data” is also the first single from The Eskimo Chain‘s upcoming EP. The quartet is based in Kent, England and has been on tour with glamglare[…]
We are in Austin again, for the fourth time. Things have changed a little bit in the 31st year of the festival. A new logo with fresher colors (we appreciate the departure from primary green for the music badge), new rules for event access and the music track is one[…]
Hard to believe that this was already our eighth showcase since we started curating shows last October! It was also the first one that saw a returning band: New York three-piece Council rocked The Delancey once more and proved that they are ready for bigger stages. Like Council – all three[…]
London producer Zaflon follows the likes of Portishead with a gritty brand of trip hop. Hammered forward by a hard-hitting beat, his new track “Sincerity” features singer Gilan and rapper Lefty. “Sincerity” is Zaflon’s February track and he has promised more for every month of this year.
