Austin, Texas’s Fun Fun Fun Fest has come quite a long way from its humble beginnings six years ago. From its first year at Waterloo Park with a bill comprised heavily of local acts like Black Angels, Spoon and Ghostland Observatory, the festival has ballooned into a nationally recognized music-fest capable of reuniting acts like The Descendents, booking stadium sized bands like Slayer, and drawing crowds that would rival its big-brother festival Austin City Limits. Now with a new seaside home at Auditorium Shores, the sixth annual Fun Fun Fun Fest has its sights set higher than ever, with the most impressive bill its seen in years.
Hit the jump for the full recap.

the song that originally appeared on black milk’s album of the year gets a visual, but it’s in support of their collaborative “EP,” black and brown, which hit stores this past tuesday. track is a banger, regardless.

neat interview/mini documentary via okayplayer about black milk’s career thus far, and his never-failing ability to represent detroit and its key inhabitants (see: j dilla) to the fullest. i wish i gave AOTY more spins, but that’s what ’11s for.

this video is extremely clean. a series of photos were compiled together by director and editor chris chynoweth to create the “video” you see up there. love the concept, love the song and the album.

fat beats hasn’t been having a good time these past few weeks with their retail locations closing and all that, but the record label definitely sees the light at the end of the tunnel with this album. black milk’s fourth studio LP is dropping on september 14th, the boldly titled album of the year. the whole thing’s “available” to the masses who are adept to the ways of the internet, but if you wanna be a nice person and all of that, NPR has the first listen.
