THE PRODUCERS SWAP MEET (#1 PRODUCER’S BRANDING PLATFORM since 2002) and Inner Loop's THE BEATDOWN (#1 PRODUCER SHOWCASE on the east coast since 2007) invades SXSW on March 16, 2012. These two BIG brands, which together have formed to bring you past events like CHOP IT UP and THE KING OF THE BELTWAY, are headed to Austin, Texas for a HUGE event that will be unlike any other during the SXSW festivities. It all goes down FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 2012 in Austin, Texas.

THE PRODUCERS SWAP MEET x THE BEATDOWN is NOT just a beat battle! This is an event that brands up and coming producers from unknown to known. Our past participants who we have helped brand through the event have been the following:
M16 ("Duffle Bag Boy" Playaz Circle, "I Do" Young Jeezy, Jay-Z, Andre 3000)
D.R.U.G.S ("I Just Wanna" 50 Cent, "Can You Buy That" Ludacris)
Wrightrax (Big Sean)
Supahotbeats (Yelawolf & Tech N9ne)
Honorable C Note (Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Ludacris, Pussy Cat Dolls)

Because you are in our network of producers, we want to give you first choice to register! We only have 16 slots! You will be required to submit your beats (appropriately titled) a few days before the event so our DJ can be prepared for the event to run smoothly. Most events we hear about have been focused on the artist as an MC and not as a producer. We want to give YOU the opportunity to shine in the spotlight! Events in SXSW are charging $250 to get on and perform, so the $100 Early Bird Special we are offering to you is a strong break and will increase to $150 on February 23, 2012. Participating in this event will be a great look no matter if you win or if you lose. The venue holds 300 people and we will have a strong network of artists, A&R’s, producers, DJ’s, fans, etc. in attendance.
