This week, the Austin Music Minute on KUTX is presenting a few recommendations from this year’s Fun Fun Fun Fest, going on this Friday through Sunday at Auditorium Shores. Today, the AMM has selections from the Blue Stage, where you’ll find quite a few badass rap, hip-hop and electronic artists and DJ’s to get the party started. Seriously. Sweaty crowds abound, moving in time to the…how you say…”phat” beats? Mock my cluelessness of hip jargon, if you must, but there’s no shame in admitting it’s musical discovery for your AMM hostess. Dig:
Friday – 2 Chainz, Atmosphere, Ginuwine, SZA and SOHN. Start the day out with Blue, The Misfit at 11:45 a.m.
Saturday – Girl Talk, Nas, The Presets (featured on today’s AMM), and ASTR. And for crying out loud – HELLO?! Do not miss Gary Numan at 3:15 p.m.
Sunday – Wiz Khalifa, Flying Lotus, Ryan Hemsworth, and Cashmere Cat. And please check out bassist Stephen Bruner‘s project, Thundercat at 2 p.m.
Stay tuned for more FFF Fest recommendations.
