House Is A Feeling

For me this may be the best Chicago track. Still sounds like it has unchartered depths to it. (NB: I probably blogged about this at some point in this blog’s history as it’s an obsession of mine, but it bears repeating!)

So there is lots and lots of chat about this. Let’s not use the word “hype”, since it means less and less each day. Which version, if any, do you like?
I heard […]

Lots of videos of this about, this isn’t mine but is quite cool. Doesn’t capture the full extent of the night of course but is a good start.

Romanian DJ and sometime Cocoon resident Raresh that is. How much fun does the above video look? Anyone know how many people were there? “I’m living in the wrong country” is by now a truism for anyone here in Dublin (or probably a host of other cities) who likes house or techno. Still, we really […]

Cheers to JF for the tip off on this one, the track is “Magic M” by Lucio Aquilina. I have no idea when it’s out or if it’s coming out even. It is rather good though, and what a great video too, complete with Ricardo Villalobos goofing around and various hangers on looking a little […]

Daft Punk live, LA 1997. Can’t you just feel the 90s dripping from your screen as you watch this? It just looks so wild and unchained. Someone posted this on a forum this week and one response was simply “acid house!” which pretty much sums it up.

Daft Punk live, Oxegen Festival, Ireland, 2007. Well, it’s […]

I really like this clip of Dixon playing at Sonar despite the crappy sound quality. The tune is quite cool: from back in January it’s Stereotyp’s “Keepin Me” remixed by Fauna Flash. I didn’t hear this track at the time but it’s blowing me away right now. So deep and urgent. Check it out. Roland […]

Anyone who has been to lots of clubs, and especially those who DJ, will know just how much nights can vary. Sometimes the DJ is bad. Sometimes the venue is wrong. Sometimes the crowd just aren’t right, or the soundsystem is crap. Plenty of the time all of these factors are the problem.
So as […]

Quiet week this week here, I’ve been doing some real work in a new job yesterday hence the lack of a radio show, just had to have time to rest and eat after working till 8.  More posts next in the next few days and maybe a mix too. Above is a video of Backlash […]

I thought this was interesting, an Ecuadorean named Delfin Quishpe, labelled a “superstar” on Youtube. Here he performs an electronic lament for 9/11. Anyone want to give me the lyrics in English? Also, I suppose a more natural question is, what the hell is this guy thinking? Is there a more vivid example of […]
