Meanwhile, 200 miles south on Interstate 35, past the South San Gabriel River, Erik Wofford is slowly becoming the Steve Albini of Austin, a legacy that traces back to the first-ever explosion in the sky. As the producer of KVRX's Local Live weekly program during his tenure at University of Texas, Wofford witnessed the group's transformation from Breaker Morant into their current namesake on July 4, 1999, along with recording more than 100 other bands including the Walkmen, T-Model Ford, Jim James of My Morning Jacket and Austin essentials such as the Octopus Project, American Analog Set and Friends of Dean Martinez. "He was probably the first person in the entire world who liked us, who heard something interesting," Hrasky says. "He's been there from the beginning."

That's exactly what I was thinking... a couple of those tracks made it on a KVRX comp as well as a full band "The Bear" if I remember correctly on another KVRX comp.

edit:
They're both on one comp and still available... just placed an order, only 5 bucks!
