2014 Austin LoopFest Footage Directory
Got it all and it speaks for itself. The first year is always the hardest...this was a tricky one. The venue was ideal. Great stage, great sound, but some logistical kinks parsed the fest down to just seven performers on a Sunday night. They are all here for your enjoyment.
Of particular note is The Winler (aka Clay Bowman) out of Houston, TX with elegant and simple, ambient loops. And a cool cat to boot. SaulPaul out of Austin, TX is a serious, rising star. Looping is just a part of his total package. He's a very engaging and entertaining performer. Michael Garfield, also out of Austin, TX is clearly doing his own thing with an epic single, ambient performace for his entire set. I'm especially glad to have captured his set as he was unable to perform at the Y2K14 Santa Cruz fest.
Here's the entire playlist for y'all wanting the goods top to bottom:
