SXSW 2012

From Adam Schragin, The Austin Chronicle:

Texas-based soundscape artist Spencer Stephenson makes gorgeous, glitchy electronic music under the Botany banner. The beat-heavy music is neither overwhelmingly dance, nor are the textures on his debut EP Feeling Today too lithe and pretty to be substantive. Aligned with Austin's Western Vinyl label, Botany maps the cross section of experimental hip-hop and electronic pop in ways that are frequently unexpected but are rewarding more often than not.
