Dearest internet friends,

Welcome to this week’s instalment of what’s hot in life & leisure.

I’m currently packing my bags to fly out to Austin for Poolsuite & Yahoo’s DISCO(NNECT) event at SXSW, which just became our most RSVP’d event of all time! It’s a honour to host these events for all of you with some of my favourite artists setting the soundtrack. This time we’ve picked The Knocks, Soul Clap & Shubostar for an all-day, all-night soirée with free cover, free cocktails, free Vacation® products & lots more.

I hope to see a bunch of you there! RSVP here if you’re in town, or shoot the link to a friend who will be. If you’re a premium subscriber & intend to come along, please read on…

Much love ☼
Marty
