Must See for SXSW
Does It Offend You , Yeah?
Gimmicky name? Perhaps. However, they will be one of the bands that will be playing 20 times during SXSW and I MUST SEE THEM. They are a party starter and make sure you catch them. They’re being described as a cross between Justice, DFA 1979, and the Neptunes. They had me at Justice. The group will be releasing their new album next month and touring with Yo Majesty.

Chad, Pharrell, and Homeslice will be releasing Seeing Sounds late June 2008. The real story is that Chad and Pharrell are back! You need sugar with Kool-Aid, so Pharrell on the solo tip was a bit bland…. Most importantly, the guys will be playing the Fader Fort during SXSW and also on tour w/Kanye West…..

Zizek Tour
The funny thing is that I hated Cumbia when I was growing up. Loathed it. These beats make it into something more than palatable.
