• Improving on the title of our last post, Ollie (Pressure Drop Sound) assertains over on his blog that maybe 'St Patrick was Ireland 's first organic farmer' .
• We get props in the Irish Times. Unexpected.
• GC underground, continue to spread the good news and take hip hop back to its roots. Last weekend saw them on the Patricks Day Parade busting moves on O connell Street in scenes not seen there since that RTE news report in 84 ( another one to youtube). Later they gave demonstration to the youth in the park and inspired much battling on the bandstand. This photo (above) taken from Claire McGrath's page. GC underground founder Baz is also opening an exhibition of his paintings in Tigh Fili, Cork this Friday.
• Surprise guest at last Saturdays Roots was Bashia from No Matta Name Sound System out of Gdansk. She was excellent and added to what was a really great night. Over here, MacKozer asks how Polish and Irish are getting on. Saturday night in the underground would suggest just fine. Hopefully some photos to follow
• Finally welcome to Digital Sole- like that mix
