Radiodread! 2113 4
Started by Daragh
anyone head this, i remember (i think) someone talking about it a while ago, its basically 'ok computer' performed by the Easy Star All Stars, the same dudes who did Dub Side of the Moon, and it is f**king awesome!
much more downbeat than dub side, and a whole load of reggae legends, horacy andy, toots (!!!!) sugar minottetc lending vocals, but all in its quality.
groovy, only word.
some cleansing reggae after the disaster that was jimmy cliff live

Finally, a critic admits when they were wrong 2516 14
Started by nerraw
Jim Carroll in the ticket last week, great piece.
http://www.ireland.com/theticket/articles/2006/1124/1164236471372.html
Every critic should compile a 'oh no, I really did rate them didn't I' list every year.
Carroll is NOW spot on with Tapes N Tapes. I'd bet if we went through the year's recommendations, that amount of sheer awfulness would be akin to the Irish soccer team

Test your musical skills in 6 minutes 2291 4
Started by comet
Originally developed as a quick online way to screen for tonedeafness, this tool turned out to be a pretty good test to check for overall pitch perception ability. The test is purposefully made very hard, so excellent musicians rarely score above 80 correct. It's actually quite difficult, and will let you know if it's true that you really can't carry a tune, not even in a bucket.

Anyone here get along to Anseo over the weekend for the 'Bud Rising' festivities
If you did you will obviously know that DFA were seriously on the money and that David 'Hollywood' Holmes is nothing more than a chancer. I mean, the DJ to the stars played 'Paint it Black' twice and also gave 'Nothin but a heartache' a double spin too. He also added to the joy by leaving allmighty gaps between tracks and generally playing the sort of set you'd hear in Anseo any night of the week.
