The 100 Milli Views Club on Youtube Visible Measures compiles all the stats from the video no matter where they stream from and came up with this list of the most watched Youtube works. Above is our fav.

Club pop-ups are the new foodie pop-ups. Pop-ups, in theory, should be everything the brick-and-mortar model is, sans the bricks and mortar and the expense (less overhead = smaller check, right)? In theory, yes. In practice, not so much. Madame Wong's, a fried-rice-aluminum-pan takeout joint that magically transformed into a sinister disco joint on Howard Street in Chinatown, had its brief, jittery, expensive, rapid heartbeat moment on the dance floor, and although, according to one Yelper , it makes you "feel OK about skipping a shower" (which may or may not be a selling point), [...]

Wednesday night saw the Scottish Showcase, put together by our partners Creative Scotland; and it was triumphant. With an incredible lineup of The Twilight Sad, Admiral Fallow, Twin Atlantic, Errors, Kid Canaveral and Withered Hand, a packed out Maggie Mae's at the heart of Sixth Street in Austin saw an unforgettable night of Scottish music. [...]

The Detour Scotland crew, including Ally McCrae and David Weaver, have been here in Austin all week filming the Scottish bands, getting ridiculous tattoos and generally having their minds blown by the insanity that is South by Southwest. These are their video diaries: Later today the Scottish afternoon showcase will take place at the British [...]

Two weeks to go and more details have surfaced about the Scottish shows at South by Southwest 2011. Sadly it appears that Django Django may have dropped out but I've put together a nice little table featuring all the gigs that are currently scheduled. There should be some more gigs announced by next week so [...]

This one's for the feet. it's make you want a wooden dancefloor to forget all your worries. Even though we could not understand the lyrics in French, the beat is so infectious that it will get you and get you going. The track is a robust call to the disco with magnificent arrangement and uppity vocals. Truly one of the best dance songs of 2011, as of now.

As dudes, there's always been an allure to shack up with some foreign femme fatale, whose irresistible nature lies not only in her oblique, overseas demeanor, but the clairvoyant language barrier between participating parties. The two of you don't understand a single word one another is saying, yet you don't need to, because desire has overtaken logic. Since that high-speed train of thought is merely a spank-bank-entry for many of us poor schmucks, the same intriguing and blindly-led susceptibility can be applied to French fornication-making-outfit Yelle's "Ce Jeu." A few years old and still fresher [...]

Last week the official SXSW website was updated with hundreds more bands added but with a couple of Scottish names removed. However, as we stand there are a record 19 20 Scottish artists on the 2011 schedule. Full details below. So here is the current list of Scottish acts who are on the SXSW schedule. [...]

The launch of this album was, entirely unsurprisingly, one of most enjoyable gigs I've been to in a long time. I think Lloyd from Peenko was officially having The Most Fun He Has Ever Had, it was sweaty as f**k, and the whole experience was just fantastic. As someone rather wedded to the morose and the [...]

It's called 'Lovers reBEL' and it's free to download on his Bandcamp page . We like his music, we hop you do too. Popup Popup are back back [...]
