Welcome to ArtifactWorkshop.com! Make yourself at home and sit a spell, whydontcha? Artifact Workshop and Neiliyo were recently prominently featured on a cool web show called 512 UnScripted! Check it out below.
Each week the two ladies bring you all sorts of footage of the happenings in Austin music, art, fashion, food, movies and more from a fresh, uncensored perspective. Megan was a pleasure to work with and we are thrilled with the exposure on the interwebs! Find out more about 512 Unscripted at their online home base (still under construction…) HERE and watch them online over at SMTX.TV!
Wow. SXSW sure snuck up fast. It is here now. There is no escaping. Time to get your ‘network’ on.
All of our affiliated artists are doing something or other during the festival. You should go see them. And then come back to this site and order something from them to support them.
We are an official co-sponsor of one day show over at Iron Gate Lounge (located at 1111 East 6th in beautiful Austin TX) along with PartyEnds.com,Raw Word Records, Brooklyn Brewery, PartyEnds.com and our new freinds at Bridge Club. Be sure to check out AW recording artists Neiliyo and CUSTODIAN not to mention the great Keepaway and Das Racist! Check out the full lineup below and come say hello on Thursday!
The time is right. The leaves are falling. Shorts are starting to be warn. Yes, it’s spring in Austin. On February 27th 2010 we hosted the release party for Neiliyo’s Game Night at Club DeVille and as if photographic evidence wasn’t enough to prove that it was an insane blast- now we have video. Behold:
The entire EP came as a digital download on a slap bracelet the night of the show and we still have a FEW that we’ll be passing out here and there at the SXSW music festival but if you don’t want to risk running into us in a free beer line, head over to iTunes and pick it up! It is less than 5 dollars and provides a milli in listening value.
Huge thanks to Leah Ross for her work on the video!
Neiliyo recently gave a candid and graphic interview with the Onion’s AV Club where he addressed the haters, his work ethic and a ton more. Read the whole thing HERE. This is highly recommended, especially if you like butter metaphors. Trust us. Here is an excerpt:
“[Laughs.] Yeah, if you have to call it something, call it “electro-fun” or “hyper-core.” It’s full-on personality. It’s like reading a blog in real time—it’s interactive music. I want to push people’s buttons and give them a new experience, and be a communicator as opposed to a musician. I’m a musical communicator. [Laughs.]”
A TON of great photos from the release show have been posted by the Peen Scene! Check them all out HERE!
