Blogledge Nialler9 has just unearthed a top quality recording of Leftfield’s performance at Homelands in 2000. Click through now and enjoy some heavyweight, stomach-pumping bass.

Going to the Garden Party? Prepare for your big day out with this 20 minute excerpt from Hot Chip’s new “DJ Kicks” mix-album. Lovely hurling

Political anoraks, this is for you. Anne-Marie Power spent Election 2007 in Dublin Central tracking the ups and downs of the three female would-be TDs campaigning in Bertie’s backyard. She followed their campaigns from the get-go to the last count for a documentary called Patricia, Mary and Mary-Lou Too which airs tonight (Wednesday) on RTE Radio One at 8pm. If you miss it, check here for a podcast from tomorrow.

KRS-One blanks Ireland! Those June dates I wrote about earlier featuring The Blastmaster and Marley Marl? Forget about them. The shows are cancelled. Read a book instead. Me, I’m about to start the new Richard Ford, if you’re wondering.

    The Patricia, Mary & Mary Lou thing was pretty good. An insightful look into the dastardly world of politics. I have to say that there was even some sympathy for the grinning freak as she stood alone in the RDS. McKenna sounded like she’d done a few Prozac.

    Darn tooting sarcasm just doesn’t work in blogland, does it?
