We can’t share the Texas-sized tacos and barbecues we had in Austin at SXSW, but we can help with one additional sensory thanks to music discovery apps like SoundHound and Shazam. We covered plenty of digital-meets-social happenings while in Austin, but given that this is also a great music scene, we couldn’t resist turning to sound-searching apps to discover a bit more about the tunes we’re hearing around SXSW. Want to listen in? Check out some of what we’ve been listening in on here at the festival.

1. Fireflies – Fobee

2. Greek Style – Gold Panda

3. Cheryl Tweedy – Lily Allen

4. Next to Me – Emeli Sandé

5. Borderline – CLASSIXX

6. The Walk – Mayer Hawthorne

Update 11/6/24: Though this is our first iteration of such a list for the 2024 Black Friday season, we're already quite happy with it. Apple showed up with an affordable Apple Watch (which has fitness tracking that, though on the simpler side, we actually like better than some of its more complex siblings) and the Peloton Guide is $100 off. Plus, we were able to find smart tracking in stationary scale format for just $23, an entry-level price anybody can afford. This is a great start and we're excited to see what is to come...

Despite lingering stereotypes, the tech space and fitness space are quite closely related. And so, for this Black Friday season, we know you may be interested in some great fitness gear. Luckily, while Black Friday officially starts on November 29, you can go ahead and get started on your fitness resolutions way early with early Black Friday deals. That means that if the early Black Friday headphones deal you picked up happens to be a good pair of running headphones, now is a fantastic time to pick up an exercise bike or treadmill. Alternatively, now is also a great time to pick up an excellent fitness tracker with early Black Friday smartwatch deals. No matter what your goals, however, the following deals are ripe and ready now, not in a few weeks, so there is no reason to delay your plans.

BLUETTI’s latest Elite 200 V2 portable power station gets a discount for launch

BLUETTI Elite 200 V2 portable power station deal -- hero

Typically, when a new launch happens you don't see a significant discount for a while, and for good reason. But perhaps because it's so close to Black Friday and the holiday discounts, BLUETTI just dropped a new release and an incredible deal. The brand-spanking-new Elite 200 V2 is $900 off the regular price. That means you can take home the Elite 200 V2, a 2073.6-watt-hour portable power station, for $1,099, instead of $1,999. That discount is good until December 3rd, so don't wait around if you need one. With another storm brewing off the coast of Florida, now's a good time to get a backup power solution if you don't already have one.
