# Download Free Music From SXSW

As you might know by now, [the A3C is going to Austin](https://www.a3cfestival.com/a3c-is-going-to-austin/) for SXSW. Since we're taking some time to talk about the event, I thought I mention that SXSW has made it possible for anyone and everyone to download several hundred tracks from participating artists.

All of the music has been made available by the artists, so there's no stealing or shadiness involved, just [3 gigs of free music](http://sites.google.com/site/sxswtorrent/).

Obviously, Hip Hop only makes up a small percentage of music that's available to download, but I figure most A3C fans are interested in branching out and exploring any type of new artists and genres as long as it's good. Thanks to [Greg Hewgill](http://hewgill.com/sxsw/) and [Ben Stolt](http://sites.google.com/site/sxswtorrent/) for making this possible for the past few years.

I'd like to make something like this possible for the A3C this year anyone interested in help out with this project?
