Many of you have probably heard of the South by Southwest set of festivals. Typically they are abbreviated as SXSW. There are actually multiple conferences and festivals on film, interactive and music that take place in the spring of each year.

Often, a hot new technology will emerge from SXSW with Twitter being a recent example. Of course music is also a huge part of the festivities and this year the participating bands put together a download of 100 free songs. That’s right, free music!

Just to save readers from asking later, I am not offering the free songs for download. I am simply telling you about it. If you would like to download the music, go to The Mix: The Austin 100. On that page you can download any song individually or you can find a link under the title “Download The Music” to get one massive file with all 100 songs. It states that they can only be downloaded until April 4, 2013. If for any reason any of this information changes, it is nothing that I changed. Enjoy the free tunes!
