20-10-2007 2:50am#1Yeah, I agree, the thread title is a bit vague.
Just wondering if theres any Irish people doing cutting edge, forward thinking dance music. I'm thinking along the lines of Ed Banger records, or even further into the "trendsphere"
Im pretty ********* off with *** *** dance music, but really feeling the really fresh new stuff.
I was thinking of the chances of organising some sort of collective, maybe a netlabel. I dunno. Ill have to give it more thought.
Cheers.0

Your new track is cool (big split), don't like the twang twang(bass slap???) in it though, the rest is class - good stuff man! Very like Yoshotoshi!0 -

There's a dude called "Chymera" from Cork who has some very decent stuff going for him - his tune "Arabesque" was Luciano's closing track in Tripod last Friday. Check him out on myspace; tune was also featured on that Sander Kleinenberg mix album.0 -

Sounds like a good idea Womoma, but as you said yourself it is something that needs to be thought through properly.
If I can help let me know, though I'll admit straight off that I dont have any experience as such in the "dance" world but it is my favourite type of music so Id love to get involved in some shape or form.

Chuffed anyone replied to the thread.
Im not even sure what I was suggesting to be honest, but I sometimes wish Ireland could stand out a bit more in the world of Electronic Dance Music, especially in an exciting refreshing kind of way.
I love dance music that sounds fresh, up to date, different, and dare I say it, "trendy" (for want of a better word!)
Funnily enough, I still haven't really found my own sound, or at least, it changes often. Recently I've gone from harsh electro to funny-chord dub and dnb, I sh1t you notBren_M.Records wrote: »it is something that needs to be thought through properly.
Deffo. Brain storming anyone?
Bren what kinda stuff do you do / are you into? You run a label of some sort?
Jimi cheers for the Chymera suggestion. I'll definatly check him out.
If anyone has any ideas, lets hear em!
I'm not big into the words "colelctive" and "scene", kinda makes things sound exclusive and clicky.
I guess I'd rather something thats about like-minded Irish EDM lovers bringing something new to the table. Maybe a net-label would be an idea, though Im not sure how exactly you would keep the quality high without excluding and disappointing some people.
The way I invisage the net-label would be that it is orientated towards cool new styles, and a certain amount of "cross-pollination" would happen between artists and other labels, allowing the cream to rise to the top, and potentially giving some great exposure to some artists who may hopefully get signed to a "real" label.
I suppose down the line a club night of some sort would be another interesting option.
I love the idea of a handfull of Irish artists remixing each other.
Anyway, Im just shooting off the hip here, I really haven't given it much thought, but Im glad a few people like the idea of doing something...0 -

The mods might remove this but heres my label web address http://www.myspace.com/manazorecords
Though I use the term "label" in the very loosest sense of the word you can possibly imagen!I'm not big into the words "colelctive" and "scene", kinda makes things sound exclusive and clicky.
Agreed, not my kinda thing either, if its about being "clicky" for want of a better word count me out now.I guess I'd rather something thats about like-minded Irish EDM lovers bringing something new to the table. Maybe a net-label would be an idea, though Im not sure how exactly you would keep the quality high without excluding and disappointing some people.
The nature of the beast Im afraid.
If you dont keep the standard really high the profile of the "label" will suffer and in the long run that means that everyone connected with said label suffers.
Some people arent meant to be "producers/performers" or whatever you want to call it but that doesn mean they cant be included.
Maybe their skill is website design, artwork for posters flyers etc. or a multitude of other things such as helping to running a night for example.
Just because they cant cut it musically doesnt mean that havnt something to offer.
Least thats my opinion for what its worth. 0 -
