Every Wednesday night, 8-10 p.m., Soundfounder plays electronic and beat music from Austin and around the world, focusing on new releases and favorite classics. This week, Soundfounder talks to RJD2 ahead of his show in Austin on January 26. RJD2 talks about what it’s like playing Austin, coming from a hip-hop/sampling background, and the story of how an old song of his ended up as the theme to Mad Men. Plus, Austin beats from JaRon Marshall, Kinder, and more.
