Was excellent hanging out with fellow Texan mastering engineer, and all around mensch, Harold Larue for the start of this year's downsized SXSW. Started last night with a delish dinner at Ramen Tatsuya and then went next door to the iconic Saxon Pub, where we took in amazing sets by Cari Hutson & Good Company, and The Reverent Few. Followed the next morning with breakfast hosted Recording Academy at the Parkside, where I got to also meet & hangout with KUTX's awesome DJ Shani, who turned out (as one would expect given the high quality of her radio show) to be super friendly and super smart. Harold had to depart after that, but I took in Austin Chronicle's block party at the Hotel Vegas, where I caught sets by Égaux Sells and Free Hamze. Check https://totalsonic.net/photos/index.php?/category/21 to see the photodump from these.

If anyone is around on Monday evening I am planning on checking out the amazing Les Itinérantes and Kety Fusco (among others) at Flamingo Cantina, so holla at me if you want to meet up then.
