Check out the SXSW 2016 issue of The Deli Mag, now available online, and distributed in print next week in Austin during SXSW's Music Week. You'll find copies of it also at our SXSW Stompbox Exhibit and Synth Space!

Yes, we've done things a little differently this time: we shaped this rag the size of a 7" record, and created a "concept" issue almost entirely dedicated to Psychedelia, with a feature by our editor Brian Chidester about how this musical genre has become more and more influential in the new millennium. The two cover artists, Yonatan Gat and Lewis Del Mar, serve as the two extremes within which Psychedelia has expanded in recent years.

As usual, the issue also gathers:

- A lot of emerging artists (mostly psych this time),
- The winners of The Deli's regional Year End Polls for Emerging Artists,
- The winners of The Deli's Best of 2015 Readers' Polls,
- A section dedicated to the SXSW Stompbox Exhibit and Synth Space

We hope you enjoy the read and get to know some awesome new music.

The Folks at The Deli

Music can bring together the strangest of bedfellows. We highly doubt that when you think of a song by Philly shoegazers Nothing, an orchestration of horns enter into the mix. Watching/listening to how music affects music through the history of music is always something that never gets old with us. So on this hump day morning, we'll be starting things off with a downtempo, trip-hop cover of "Dig," which originally appeared on Nothing's critically-acclaimed 2014 LP Guilty of Everything (Relapse Records). The recording was produced by Real Don Music, the solo production project of Kirk Huffman (Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground, Gatsby's American Dream). You can stream and download the single for free below.
