SXSW has been dominating a lot of news posts this week, so it only makes sense that related videos make it into the backlog, including Jack White's surprise performance from his traveling Third Man Records bus, and Yellow Ostrich's feature from Spin. Further down the vids you'll also see your usual mix of music videos and performances, but make sure you check out Die Antwoord's quarter-hour film featuring wheelchairs, brief spurts of rhyme and homicide. I was pretty entranced.
Now go!
