There's a lot of music on this page � 100 songs, to be exact, each from an artist worth discovering at this year's SXSW Music Festival. It represents more than six genre-defying hours of music.
Still, we started out with far more to choose from. It took an enormous amount of effort to get here: Thousands of acts play SXSW each year, enough that winnowing them down to 100 required months of seeking, listening, culling and decision-making. What remains are some of SXSW 2015's most thrilling discoveries and highlights.
In addition to this list, we've also got a full, interactive multimedia experience � not to mention a way to stream these songs all the way through SXSW 2016. And, as always, visit for live concerts, photos, videos and dispatches from this year's festival.
