SXSW MP3 Torrent Blues

I've been going through the mp3 torrents looking for gems in the rough, I don't know how people like Vinyl Mine have done it. I am sick to my gills of hardcore, Blink 182-soundalikes and intentionally obtuse bands, and SXSW hasn't even started yet.

And even if I cloned myself, I couldn't see all the bands listed (not to mention just wanting to hang out with friends old and new and just relax). This year's SXSW just seems a little too intense right now.

Here's a raw dump of mp3s I enjoyed: the like, turn me on dead man, erin roberts/porlolo, the bats, calla, gingerbread patriots, mogwai, saturday looks good to me, irving, stardeath and white dwarfs, peel, foxymorons, circle takes the square, tapes n tapes, luminous orange, the meligrove band, novillero, antietam, faith kleppenger, kid congo and the pink monkey, oranger, the double, laura veirs, tim fite, peter case, page france, goldfrapp, dressy bessy, christopher o'reilly, silversun pickups, troy von balthazar, sia, ill ease, neko case, belaire, waterloo, the kingdom, blackbud, oppenheimer, dae strom, healthy white baby, doujah raze, vietnam, the carrots, great northern, the amazing pilots, the jai-alai savant, goldrush, the czars, magneta lane, seaflea, grupo fantasma, old crow medicine show, john schooley and his one-man band, the joggers, cold war kids, bound stems, levy, jim noir, mary lou lord, nomo, carbonas, the duke spirit, simon dawes, aloha, the eighteenth day of may, the beta sweat, the capes, corinne bailey rae, the longcut, people in planes, goldenboy, pilot's lounge, baboon, rogue wave, of montreal, times new viking, anthony hamilton
