"Exposion Imagine experiencing Free Week from the comfort of a desktop computer. That's essentially the idea behind Austin Music Weekly, a new website devoted exclusively to capturing the local music scene live. Since officially launching on Thanksgiving Day, AMW has posted more than 50 shows from 40 Cap City acts – roughly three per week – ranging from the Coveters at the Continental Club to White Denim's New Year's Eve bash at Emo's, the latter on par with the steamrolling quartet's footage on Nigel Godrich's From the Basement series. While other sites have tried a similar concept, two things make AMW unique: the quality of the footage – two videographers at each show and 24-bit audio helmed by 5th Street Studios – and its business model, with bands receiving 50% of profits derived from any advertising and/or sponsorships. In phase two of the site, patrons will be able to download the live audio for free. "Everything on the site is approved by the artists," says co-founder Luke Borders. "No matter the work we put into the content, if a band isn't happy with the final product, then poof – it's gone." OTR will showcase a different performance each week on Wednesday Rewind (austinchronicle.com/thenextepisode). Look for upcoming sessions with Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears, Grupo Fantasma, the Monahans, Zeale, and the Sword. Bands interested in being filmed, contact artist@austinmusicweekly.com."
