I'm stuck at the Austin airport waiting to head back to Chicago; ABX is presumably en route to NYC. SXSW was a blast, we've been "guest blogging" about it over at Gapers Block's Transmission page. We just sent them the last of our entries which I imagine will be posted up (like a mailbox) very soon. In the meantime: these two photos.

THE HOOD vs SXSW

2008-03-07T21:51:00.008-06:00

Sorry about the lack of posting around here, we've been attempting to get our shit together for SXSW next week. We're gonna be doing a bunch of different shows, so come check us out. Details, in various shades of green:

TOMORROW IN CHICAGO: Hideout is doing their 2nd annual "Sending The Four Star State To The Lone Star State," which is a form of travel where three stars end up missing. Kind of like in LOST when Daniel Faraday sends that rocket to the island and it shows up 31 minutes later. DJ STV SLV will be there at 3:45 alongside a cast of all-stars, check the full schedule at Hideout's website. Later on, it's CLAYCHELLA, an all-day party at Tuman's put together by photographer Clayton Hauck of everyoneisfamous.com. Lots of good DJs there too, check Clayton's site for the details. Hood is somewhere in the 10pm-3am slot.

If you're in the Midwest, prepare yourself for a DOUBLE DOSE of Hood this weekend. DJ STV SLV will be at Chicago's Subterranean tonight (in the lounge, not the upstairs) alongside resident DJ Zebo, and on Sunday the fine people of Daytrotter are putting on a show with Maritime at the Capitol Theatre in Davenport. If you want to check that one out but can't make it to the Quad Cities, Daytrotter will be streaming the show live from their site. Starts at 7pm, central standard time.

El Perro Del Mar - Inner Island (The Hood Internet Remix) [6.1MB; via zshare]

Something a bit different for today: It's The Hood Internet Remix of "Inner Island" a song from El Perro Del Mar's upcoming album From the Valley to the Stars due April 22nd in the US. And there are no rap/R&B/DLR vocals in it!

Big ups to Zaid Maxwell, multi-instrumentalist/vocalist/songwriter from May Or May Not, for laying down keyboards and some hot glock on this track.

Tonight at Smart Bar in Chicago: Diplo and Blaqstarr are joined by DJ STV SLV. Starts at 10pm. Zaid Maxwell is rumored to be in attendance. Also, The Hood will be headed to Texas in March; more details on that soon.
