It’s been a while. Hi  Lets catch up on Austin music stuff shall we?
* Thanks for coming out to the PartyEnds’ Neiliyo, Emcee Eats, Sampler & Sons show at Cheer Up Charlie’s recently! That was a fun night and everyone jumped up and down and danced. That was a cool thing that [...]

It’s never too early to start planning for the weekend, especially in Austin, so we’ve got something for you to shuffle into the deck, or even put right on top. This Saturday it’s going down over at you favorite cinder block watering hole, Cheerup Charlie’s. Getting started nice and early, 9pm, we’ll be offering up [...]

The neo-mainstreamization of “twerking it” started to creep into households with Queen Diva Big Freedia and has somehow elevated to American sweetheart Miley Cyrus posting videos of herself dressed in some sort of dino-cow costumed dropping and wopping. It’s weird, but it’s also…. pretty cool (to be read in a Vanessa Bayer from SNL [...]

Marfa, TX is known for its mystery lights, David Byrne sightings and high-end art galleries, which are seemingly out of place in the middle of the West Texas desert. Amongst the boarder patrol workers and real deal cowboys is a thriving creative culture of musicians, authors and grilled cheese specialists.
Last year, Jessica Moore, the [...]

It’s time! Well, almost time, to check out the awesome lineup over at the PE sponsored, unofficial day party at the excellently sized and located Hi Hat.  There is a facebook invite thingy HERE. There will be all sorts of things that you can drink if you are over 21 from Moose Drool and from right [...]

I’m not saying Party Ends is on the Harlem Shake bandwagon, but I will say it’s the kind of flash in the pan entertainment that we love to hate. I find the reaction of neighborhood’s actual residents to the craze more entertaining than pretty much any of the videos I’ve seen, but this “remix” by the [...]

Perhaps not crushed, but certainly smushed under the weight of an awful lot of work lately, I find myself sometimes seeking out the etherial relief of some pretty, light music. To salve my ears after they start to crack and bleed under the driving thump of some minimal electronic bullshit I’ve cued up to push [...]

Suffering from nostalgia of the 80s sounds and late 90s video camcorders resolution? This video’s got you covered. The new video from Kodiak Fur is pure fun! All I know about Miami aside from there are a ton of murder there all the time in whatever police district Dexter works in. Oh, [...]

Tonight, the Mohawk will be graced by Kingdom of Suicide Lovers + Videoing (album release) + A Tiger Named Lovesick + The Diamond Age + and tunes from DJ Richard Henry. Look- here’s PROOF! Admission includes a KILLER CD with 10 tracks from the artists for FREE! PartyEnds has partnered with SlackElectric to spread [...]

Yes! A new release from Baltimore’s high prince of live-action–panic-attack-orchestral-movements-in-the- electronic-forest : Dan Deacon! The new album is called America and comes out Aug 27th and if you preorder the limited edition trippy-translucent vinyl it comes with a giant flag featuring the album art work and for you uber-hip tapeheads- it also comes out [...]

My dear Fun Fun Fun Fun Fest,
It has been a year since you you’ve given me the opportunity to praise you for the enjoyment that you so earnestly bring to my existence as well as to countless others. I will gladly avail myself of the present opportunity. I am not certain that I [...]

Can the internet music web logs please stop posting Fleetwood Mac covers? It’s an unbecoming trend. MP3 sites should be turning inside out on themselves with excitement over the mp3s that have been kicking around from the new, subtly wicked tracks of Videoing. Videoing hails from Austin Texas and features two thirds [...]

Austin’s boat shoe and midi-trigger enthusiast Neiliyo put out his latest release Aquinnah in January but with the Austin heat now in full-on triple digit mode, it’s more appropriate than ever.
Neiliyo has released a handful of great eps and mixtapes but none have had the level production value, sentiment and sand that Aquinnah contains across [...]

I’ve seen Simon’s Reynolds’ work here and there in magazines and have always gotten behind the hyper magnification of pop culture’s wild trends and microtrends. He’s a young author with a knack for breaking it down and making the reader realize (but because he’s from across the pond he would spell is “realise,” isn’t [...]

If Terrence Malick was more of an extrovert – I’m sure he would publicly express pride towards this new music video. But, he’s a busy guy juggling production on the 5+ movies that somehow involve Austin music festivals.
The brand new Tree of Life style video works perfectly for Austin’s post-rock superheroes Explosions in [...]
