Last week’s edition of New Music Friday was easily one for the history books. The combination of Bandcamp donating proceeds and artists strategizing for a powerful Juneteenth release culminated in an incredibly fruitful day for Austin music, so we’ll be spending most of this week recapping what you may have missed…starting with the big one!
The forty one-track mega-compilation Slack Capital 3: Slacking From Home Edition covers all genres, but harbors a consistent and passionate energy throughout its extended runtime. Better yet, all proceeds generated from album sales will go directly to Austin Justice Coalition, so find some of your new favorite tracks and dig into your pocket if you can. For starters, check out one of the record’s boldest centerpieces, commanded by the unbeatable hip-hop outfit Magna Carda, “Milez”!
