House Is A Feeling

It’s hard to beat the buzz of finding a great new label, that excited feeling you get when you hear the second or third great release in a row and then go to Discogs or Google to find out more. For me the latest label to move me like this turns out to be a […]

Pitchfork reports that the Arctic Monkeys and Dizzee Rascal are to record a single together.
Come back 90s dance acts! It seems the world still wants ridiculously incongruous collaborations. (speaking of which, when is the new Chemical Brothers record out, and will dude from Kasabian be on it? Or perhaps Brandon Flowers deserves a shot at […]

First things first: Backlash, the club at which I am a resident, is moving to one of Dublin’s most famous venues, the Pod. (yes I know “one of Dublin’s most famous venues”, might as well say “one of Mars’s most habitable housing estates”) This has been in the pipeline for some time but is effective […]

Check out tonight’s show here from 21.00 to 22.30 tonight, Thursday. See, this week I even remembered to tell you what time it’s on, unlike last week!
Lots of new music as usual. This time around I have some pretty hot off the press stuff, including a new Wagon Repair from the Missing Link, a new […]

Maybe I’m getting old, or maybe I’m actually too young, but I can’t help but feel that dance music is in a weird timewarp these days. Perhaps it’s not just dance music that’s in this stasis, or even just music.
This isn’t even a controversial theory, is it? It reminds me of Fukuyama’s theory about […]

This blog has made the shortlist for the Irish Blog Awards in the Best Music Blog category, somehow, so thanks to any of you who voted for me, I appreciate it. I seriously doubt I’ll have enough votes to win and I feel a little like I’ve gatecrashed the whole thing having just noticed I […]

I always try and listen to tunes by producers I haven’t heard of before, but it’s definitely hard. There’s always a big list of favourite producers and obviously I check them first. I also have favourite labels which are closely followed by an even longer list of labels that I trust to some extent, or […]
