Austin is good for many things: partying (6th street), delicious sushi (Uchi), beautiful women (Dagnushka) — and of course, music. When you think festivals, SXSW (March) and ACL (Sept/Oct) are the biggest names that come to mind and are yearly staples for any music lover. This year, the Helloooooo.com crew decided to scope a third and [...]

Helloooooo.com is proud to present a special event on September 19, 2009 at Ghostbar Dallas featuring DJ-extraordinaire and LA homey Marshall Barnes. Marshall is a staple on the LA scene and will no doubt be bringing the fire just like he did at the 508 House at SXSW this past March. More details and official [...]

So remember that Crystal Castles track “Crimewave” that everyone loved so much? Well, it was actually a remix of HEALTH’s version of “Crimewave”. HEALTH? Yeah, and they also got to tour with Trent Reznor last year to play support spots on the 2008 NIN tour. I’ve seen them live twice at SXSW ‘07 and ‘08 [...]

I got a chance to see ‘The Crystal Method’ live for the first time at SXSW at the 508 house right before Aoki and Barnes went on and I was impressed by their energy and style. This duo that is originally from Las Vegas formed the band in Los Angeles in ‘93 out of a bomb shelter which was literally [...]

The night started off a bit slow so gilberto and I headed to ‘The Side Bar’ to pre-drink until we decided it was about time to head over to the ‘Radio Room’ where MSTRKRFT was set to play at the Dim Mak party. Before we arrived a friend of mine warned me that it was extremely crowded [...]

Our crew touched down a night earlier than originally planned to see DJ Marshall Barnes, our boy from LA, throw down with fellow Deckstar’r Steve Aoki at the Metallica Afterparty. Fresh off only a couple hours sleep from spinning at Foxtail the night before, Barnes killed it at the 508 House with Aoki. The small, [...]

I apologize for the delay in getting this up but I have been a tad bit busy lately preparing for the Mstrkrft show in Dallas tonight as well as SXSW in Austin this weekend. The Hoyotoho show on Monday, as you might have already heard, was off the hook. Dagnushka best described the event on her Facebook [...]

 ::Polaroid I snapped on the East side of Austin today::
The 9 day festival is upon us ladies and gentles. Only 1 week away, the cluster bomb of musical performances, conferences, film screenings and ridiculous after-parties (one being at my house!) is a recipe for pure visual and auditory titillation. It officially starts March 13th with INTERACTIVE and continues into [...]

Mstrkrft announced today they will be playing at a series of upcoming show (three of which Gilberto and I plan on attending — Dallas 3/20, SXSW 3/21 and Coachella 4/18). I have to admit I was disappointed when I read they agreed to do a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. I am not sure how Jesse (below, left) is going to handle a show without chain smoking and drinking his beloved Crown. (Tour dates after the jump)

I have to say I might be one of the luckiest bastards alive. If I lose it…somehow it generally finds itself coming right back to me. It all started out when I lost my digital camera after an amazing trip to Austin for SXSW. Pictures of me making out with a beautiful girl (who later turned [...]
