Issue 6 out today

Issue 6 of Analogue is out today (pdf here). It’s our first birthday this month and to celebrate, we have put together a compilation of some of the most interesting underground Irish music. The compilation is called ‘Peek! An earful of Irish Underground’ - it features songs by Ugly Megan, Grand Pocket Orchestra, Dublin Duck Dispensary, Supernova Scotia, So Cow, Patrick Kelleher, Katie Kim, Hunter-gatherer, Gran Casino, Nouveau Noise and Colours Move.

It’s available on cd in the first 1000 copies of this issue and online as a download. In addition, in about two weeks time a limited run of 200 12” vinyl will be available in some of our favourite independent record stores. All for free.

We’re also having a party to celebrate in the Twisted Pepper on Abbey Street this Thursday, the 16th of October. Playing live on the night we have a rare appearance by Spilly Walker, with support coming from Patrick Kelleher and Villagers. Villgers is a new project by Conor O’Brien formerly of The Immediate, it’s the bands first live outing so make sure you don’t miss it. The live acts will be followed by indie tunes by Analogue DJs til late. Expect the best of the old and new from Neutral Milk Hotel, Pavement, Built To Spill, Vampire Weekend, MGMT…

It’s €8 in or €5 with a student card. There’s also some recession busting drinks deals with vodka and redbull coming in at a measly €3 and beers from €3 too. Doors are at 9m

So come along and help us celebrate!
