When the Delete crew out of Bournemouth in the UK hit me up looking for a podcast a few months ago Free Rotation must have been fresh in my mind. I’m figuring it was around the time tickets came on sale and the ensuing stress from it means little else is on one’s mind till…

Guest Mix: De Dupe, Bordello A Parigi
Bordello A Parigi first came to our attention with it’s debut release back in 2011, the amazing Forever Strangers release from Model Man (aka Dj Overdose). Not only was the music killer but the packaging was sumptuous and this attention to detail hasn’t let up since. There’s been edits, Italo re-issues, mix Cds ( and…
Dj Overdose: Bizarro World, Aardvarck: 1990
Jeroen Warmenhoven is someone who could never be accused of overkill when it comes to his recorded output so it nearly comes as a bit of a surprise to have 2 Dj Overdose releases appear in the same month. I already covered the killer 12″ on Lunar Disko and no sooner had the needle been…
Guest Mix: Anaxander, Got2go Records
Followers of what the various ISM crew do outside here will most likely be aware of this French producers work on Tom’s Love What You Feel Label. He’s also released under some other guises but Discogs doesn’t link the profiles so let’s just leave it that way for now ;). He’s certainly one of the…
Mix: Jitterbug @ Gary’s Gang 3rd May 2013
We’d a rather large amount of fun a few weeks back when Jitterbug came over to play at our lil Gary’s Gang shindig here in Dublin; some would say too much fun. But it’s fine, our head’s have stopped hurting now. We recorded the night and Jitterbug has given it the ok to post it…
Frak – Erase
We all know by now about the (re)emergence of Sweden’s Frak in 2012, a trio of strange fish who had managed to fly under the radar of most of the world up until a string of releases last year, most notably on Digitalis and Kontra. So after such a high profile year it was odd…
Bitter Sweet Blues ‘n Black Deers
Even by my standard that headline is a pretty awful attempt at rounding up a few of the releases highlghted in this post. But it’s late at night so whatever. Let’s start with the the bitter so. Mr Scott Grooves has a tendency to appear on the fringes every couple of years before slipping away…
Jitterbug in Dublin tomorrow night, Apt00 Repress plus a couple of other tings…
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…
New Irish Bizness
Things are tipping over nicely for Irish related action at the moment, be it artists or labels. So here’s a quick rundown of whats a gowan. First up is a new kid on the block from Derry, The Cyclist. With a tape album out in 2011 on Crash Symbols, “Bones In Motion” sees his first…
The House That Jack Didn’t Build
Last year saw a huge influx of producer’s both new and old jumping on the house band wagon. They would label their work deep and it would follow a path, well, more of a rocky road, that we have been down many times before. This road took us back to the 90’s but it left…
