It's that time of the year again.

One of these days I plan to attend but I'm happy enough to get my yearly wake up call of what's happening in the music world outside of my own melon.

Here's a link to NPR's Austin 100. I usually use it to jot down artists I want to try and find streams of and hopefully shamelessly copy!

Here's one I wish I could have seen.

Max Richter's 8 hour performance of Sleep.

Maybe I haven't kept up with current events but it looks like South by has turned into a mini Cannes.

I'm sorry I missed this, although I probably wouldn't have gone anyway, but Sleep is one of my favourite and most listened to releases of recent years.
