Matthew Koons is another Denton,TX friend of the Porch. He has incredible taste in music and an infinite personality. (This fella treated me to a fine time at SXSW 2006)
Matthew’s mix is a friendly blend of ethereal slow burners and straight forward tropical rhythms. Delight in the fine mixture of exotic melodies lapping on the shore to help transition from laughing summer days dripping with sunlight into the gentle coolness of the autumnal equinox. A veritable host of Koon’s most respected artists are stopping in to help you fold up the tank tops and pull out the sweaters and longjohns!

A good friend of the Porch, Austin Swann, has contributed a killer mix for your listening pleasure. A SWANN is a talented lad currently residing in Denton, TX. He is a gentleman of the night and also contributes to the music blog yeahdef.
The mix he procured takes the listener from crunchy electro-house to the tropical Balearic beat scene in Sweden, from minimal cerebral techno to old school thumpers. Headphones or a solid sound system suggested to get your heartbeat up and your head spinnin’. You can find some of A SWANN’s original homemade tracks at myspace.com/austinswann
