Records latest project is a unique collaboration with the world famous
music programme 'An Taobh Tuathail'. The plan is to release a CD compilation
of electronic music that perfectly reflects the diverse music style of
the radio show. So here it is, a twelve track CD compilation which has
been painstakingly selected by An Taobh Tuathail's founder Cian Ó
Cíobháin. A beautiful blend of ambient/electronic sounds
from some of the world's finest producers.
Background on the radio show:
The radio show has been broadcasting the cream of underground music from
around the globe on RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta/Anocht FM since
May 1999. Cian Ó Cíobháin who has been presenting
the show since its very first broadcast, presents the show Mondays to
Fridays, 11pm-1am.

Felix
Laband:
The music of South Africa's premier electronic musician is fluid and deceptively
simple, freakish, quirky but user-friendly, funky and day-dreamy. Polyphonic
funk like the sound-adventures of Warp´s “Boards Of Canada“,
“Autechre“ or “Aphex Twin“ and measures at the same
time the dope downtempo flavour of their label-mates “Nightmares
On Wax“. If one had to categorise the musical style of Felix Laband
he would have to create a new genre called "Indietronica". There's
a level of professionalism in his work that is breathtaking. www.openrecord.co.za/felixlaband.html
Ariel Pink:
Ariel Pink (born Ariel Marcus Rosenberg on June 24, 1978) is an avant-garde/hauntology
musician who is based in Los Angeles. Pink has been recording his music
on tape since 1996 but it wasn't until after he passed a CD-R to the New
York-based band Animal Collective that his commercial musical career took
off. He has since caught the attention of various media sources, especially
in the Los Angeles area. As most of his albums are self-made, many of
them have never been heard by fans. The only albums which have been commercially
released come from his "Haunted Graffiti" series and are thus
the best known. www.myspace.com/arielpink
Cane 141:
The group Cane 141 have released two albums and five singles to date and
sporadically highlight these releases with live shows centred around their
own marriage of electronic and organic sounds. Their sound is at times
experimental, electronica with a smooth production edge, mixing atmospheric
vocals with eclectic instrumentation. Radio 1’s Rob Da Bank is already
a fan of this new material, and has been playing it on his Blue Room and
One Music shows - as is the legendary Steve Lamacq, who has featured “Joe
Meek Shall Inherit the Earth” (from the 7" EP) on his Radio
1 show. The "Moon Pool" album has also received a nomination
for the prestigious Irish Mercury Music Prize.

Phelan Sheppard:
Keiron Phelan and David Sheppard make records together and separately
under various guises. Their most recent album together, harps old master,
was released last year on the leaf label and features Phelan and Sheppard
playing nylon string guitars, double bass, various woodwinds, xylophones,
keyboards and electronics, while spanish singer Ines Naranjo also coats
several songs with vocals. www.myspace.com/phelansheppard
Fug:
Their only full-length LP, Ready For Us is arguably one of the touchstones
of the live cinematic breaks movement that really took a foothold in the
UK in the late-90s. Utilizing guitars, bass, drums, keys, strings, horns
and the occassional vocalist, Fug threw down one of the finest and most
underrated records of 2001, lost among Nuphonic's roster of House producers
