SXSW announces fresh round of music panels

Amidst the haze of bands and beer that is the South by Southwest Music Festival, the panels often get overlooked. Maybe that’s why the festival took the unique approach of crowdsourcing its 2010 panels, allowing the community to vote on the various proposals online.

Today the fruits of that labor were announced as the festival released a batch of 40 panels selected through the new process. The results are intriguing — the panels address everything from digital distribution to the resurgence of vinyl to spirituality on the road. If you can tear yourself away from the substantially less orderly world of day parties and nightly showcases, there should be some interesting discussions.

Surf on over to SXSW’s Web site for the full list, or check it out after the jump.
