The former dEUS and The Love Substitutes guitarist has picked out some gems in the selection, which you can hear below.

TONY KINGSTON has certainly been keeping himself busy lately. On top of working in a full time job and writing for us, he has started running a monthly event at Ching-a-Lings in Sydney called ABE ENJOYS A SUNDAY SESH . The name is based on the reformed character of Abraham Lincoln, who these days is really into his electronic music and the occasional groove on the dance floor. TONY told us that the purpose of his parties are “to give friends the opportunity [...]

Director: Conor Masterson Cast: Glen Hansard, Graham Hopkins, Joe Doyle, Rob Bochnik, Colm Mac Con Iomaire Certificate: N/A Running Time: 87 minutes Release Date: April 19 By and large, music documentaries will only work if one of two clauses are met—either the viewer is a fan of the music or artist(s) in question, or there's a compelling story being told that transcends the music. Otherwise, the documentary has little to no relevance. With In The Deep Shade , there is no story as such, rather, it's a series of [...]

The start of this track sounds like something from a Julianna Barwick album, however this is the work of R. Thomasin, a new artist who crafts catchy and ethereal songs from dreampop, shoegaze, and electronic influences. She comes from Boston, USA ... Continue reading

Eoin Glackin launched his second album 'Rain Finally Came' with a fantastic performance in the Workman's Club last night which proved to me he is one of Ireland's best singer-songwriters. Earlier today I wrote about Eoin's support act, Ian Prowse who performed a great little set from his solo career and songs from his previous bands Pele and Amsterdam. He was entertaining, funny, charming and relevant. He finished with 'Does This Train Stop in Merseyside' which has [...]

The sixth episode of the Hang Games mixtape saga reps a fresh crop of dynamite Australian artists remixing fellow dynamite Australian artists.

For the last year it was always interesting to find out on a weekly basis which album Rob O'Connor chose as his 'Essential Irish Album' on his Irish Beats radio show on Beat 102-103 radio show. If I did a similar list I'd have around 20 of the albums below so in all it's a great list of Irish albums. There's an extra special show on Beat tonight from 8pm. Rob will be playing tracks from ALL of the 50 Essential Irish Albums listed below. If you only listen to one [...]

Here's a round up of all things good happening in my music world! Adam Sullivan at The Purple Sessions - Boyles of Slane New York resident kicked off The Purple Sessions in fine style on Thursday with a relaxed set of indie folk tunes which enticed me to hand over some money for his full length album 'The Room Is Spinning Faster'. It's an album of fine Indie Pop heavily influenced by 80's new revival sounds. I'm loving every minute of Adam's music. Nothing [...]
I don't really get the whole R. Thomasin name thing, as Rachel is a perfectly lovely first name, but what do I know? I'm sure I'm missing something about what's hip these days. R. Thomasin, just know that I would like you regardless of your name. Even if when I first glance at your name I start thinking oh what's this dude gonna sound like? And then forget that happened and think it again next time I see the name. For REAL, though, R. Thomasin is good. She is dark and brooding and mesmerizing and just the way [...]
This jewel of a tune from The Frames has probably passed people by as it appeared on the fifth album from the boys entitled The Cost in 2007 which failed to reach the masses. Nestled in that album is this epic tune about making the most of life. It's highly motivational and a fine alternative message for Christmas. People all get ready [...]

This afternoon, we'll take a look at Dylan playing at one of the most storied moments in Philadelphia live music history - the Live Aid concert in 1985, ... Continue reading
