It’s Friday night and I have nothing planned! Tomorrow, though is the Indie Electro Dance Party in Austin. Oh yeah!
So let’s listen to some electronic music – not necessarily the sub-genre of Electro, but anything that uses electronics to make music: EBM, Futurepop, Synthpop, Electro, Industrial, etc.
Let’s start with…

I had the pleasure of seeing these guys in Nashville and they put on one helluva show. Their stage energy and audience interaction are something to experience, so make sure you see them live!
While traveling is always fun, it’s always great to finally get home. It was a long trip going after the monsoon with mostly a bust. A really cool storm in the distant south of Show Low, AZ and some rain and rainbows in Albuquerque. But the scenery of the desert and mountains definitely compensated for the general lack of storms. Of course AZ lit up after we left. LOL
So I’m home and some home music is good today…
I get to see these guys on 7/29 in Houston!
