SXSW '08: Q Is For Quality

Posted Sun Mar 16, 2008 7:05am PDT
By South By Southwest Saturday, four nearly nonstop days of styrofoam beer cups, poorly maintained port-a-potties and the long lines to access their fetid confines, eight-hour-old potato salad, and other such hazards of daytime SXSW soirees were real More »

While the streets of Austin overflow with badge-bearing, slightly woozy attendees shuffling from party to band showcase to party, the world still turns. And the Y! Music team has been working feverishly behind the scenes to spotlight some of this yea More »

SXSW '08: Kid Sister Claws Her Way To The Top

Posted Sat Mar 15, 2008 1:39am PDT
This year's lineup for the normally rock/country/folk-centric South By Southwest fest offered more hip-hop than possibly any previous year--with such urban music luminaries as Ice Cube, David Banner, Bun B, Pharrell Williams, GZA, the Clipse, Dizzee More »

SXSW '08: Hot Cup Of Joe Lean

Posted Sat Mar 15, 2008 1:00am PDT
It was a sweltering 92 degrees at South By Southwest on Friday--an almost unheard of temperature for Austin in March, and almost 20 degrees hotter than it was on Thursday. But did this crazy Coachella-like climate deter Britain's best-dressed baby ba More »

SXSW '08: Revenge Of The N.E.R.D.

Posted Fri Mar 14, 2008 2:16am PDT
Pharrell Williams' solo album didn't exactly set the charts on fire. And Ride Or Die, the sophomore effort by the hip-hop renaissance man's side band N.E.R.D., failed to match the critical or commercial success of N.E.R.D.'s Shortlist prize-winning d More »

SXSW '08: Now Reed This! Lou's Tribute Show

Posted Fri Mar 14, 2008 1:48am PDT
The South By Southwest 2008 lineup features the usual crop of hipster indie bands, but many of them probably wouldn't be around today if it wasn't for this year's SXSW keynote speaker, Velvet Underground veteran Lou Reed. ... More »

SXSW '08: Champions & Next Big Tings

Posted Thu Mar 13, 2008 7:20am PDT
Every SXSW has had its great Brit hopes. In 2007, it was Amy Winehouse, the Fratellis, and Mika. 2006 brought us Editors, the Arctic Monkeys, and KT Tunstall. In 2005, it was Bloc Party, the Futureheads, and Kasabian. 2004 was all about Franz Ferdina More »

SXSW '08: Daryl Hall Or Nothing

Posted Thu Mar 13, 2008 2:10am PDT
Some people may think that going to see SXSW 2008 keynote speaker Daryl Hall perform at South By Southwest is some sort of indie-ironic inside joke. Like, "Ha ha, won't it be funny to see that old has-been who sang 'Private Eyes'?" More »

SXSW '08: Getting Faded At The Fader Fort

Posted Thu Mar 13, 2008 1:20am PDT
Wednesday was day one of South By Southwest--the key word being "day." See, SXSW isn't really about the evening's sanctioned showcases; it's all about the daytime parties that occur all over downtown Austin. ... More »
