Tomorrow night sees the Dublin debut of one of ISM’s more stealth operators, Jitterbug. Never one for fanfare, Jitter has quietly been sneaking out some killer music over the last few years, mostly via Uzuri, with his Arcane Theory ep from this time last year being a standout release. He also featured recently on this [...]
Andrew be doing all things Tabernacle related for a number of years. First off was the Slabs of the Tabernacle club night in Glasgow (possibly the best name for a night ever) before moving on to Tabernacle Records which has seen some outstanding releases from the likes of John Heckle, The Third Man and The [...]
It’s kinda impossible to talk about the weekend just gone without mentioning that elephant in the room, Bloc 2012. As everyone already knows Baselogic have since gone into administration and it is most likely going to be quite some time – if ever – before the truth comes out about how Bloc managed to fail [...]
After my first trip to Baskerville Hall last summer there was little chance that a return trip to Free Rotation wouldn’t be on the cards. A festival that is as much a massive house party than anything else, for those who like their house, techno and bass music at the deeper end of the scale [...]
I’ve been slack over the last month with posts and for today it’s just a quick reminder on a couple of new ISM related releases and this Saturday’s party in Dublin. First up, in a stunning show of ineptitude I never posted on here that the Lerosa 12″ No Mad Rush came out at the [...]

Things are kicking off this evening at 7pm (bst) with Sam Kay and Paudi Ahern before myself and Lerosa stumble about behind the decks [...]
This weekend sees the rest of the world pretend to be Irish while we just act the same as we do every other weekend with the added bonus of having the Monday off. That means, of course, that it’s St Patrick’s Day, which falls on the Saturday. It usually means it’s a fairly hectic weekend [...]
This Saturday (18th) we’ll be hosting out first label party in the basement of Twisted Pepper here in Dublin. It’s gonna work as a lil launch party for Tr One’s Drum Dance, who’ll be djing on the night; their first club gig of the year. Also, we’ve got Lerosa playing live, who’s gonna be [...]
It’s going down in Pittsburgh tomorrow nite! This is gonna be a pretty awesome evening, with some of my favorite deejays playing on a killer four corner soundsystem at a venue with a nice sized dancefloor. ISM contributors Frank Glazer aka Count Zer0, Jwan Allen, and myself are joined by special guest and good friend [...]
