Nothing like the sight of calm waters after a storm at sea…
No chance of these playlists going on line over at Phantom?

Teddy - I could NOT have put it better myself. This week will be all about calm and serenity and unruffled feathers. Well, till 11am anyway
All the playlists are online at http://www.phantom.ie/content/view/126/179/ and they’re also on this blog - just click on the “Playlists” tag under the headline and that will get them for you
Comment by Jim Carroll | March 3, 2008 at 9:10 amYes, but I get the feeling people could still be having it out about the top 40 list for a while yet, like those Japanese soldiers who kept fighting WWII on some random pacific island until 1972, it will go on for some!
RE the playlists, I meant to say, can you listen to them online?
Comment by Teddy | March 3, 2008 at 9:28 amThat is one terrifying thought.
Unfortunately, due to copyright and licensing restrictions, there are no podcasts or recordings available online of the Saturday night shows
Comment by Jim Carroll | March 3, 2008 at 9:33 amCommiserations at the lack of ’silverware’ coming your way from the Blog Awards Jim. If you somehow manage to stream your Saturday sets from the site you’ll definitely win next year..
Comment by Hot Lunch | March 3, 2008 at 9:46 amHi Jim,
One of the tracks you played (can’t remember which one)- you mentioned it was from a compilation with artists such as Dan Le Sac (best gigs i’ve been to in the last few years) and Miracle Fortress… could you tell me what the name of that compilation is? thanks martin
Comment by martin | March 4, 2008 at 11:10 pmMartin - the compilation is “Rough Trade Shops - Counter Culture 07″ (Counter Culture Records CC07). It’s an amazing compilation - four star review here http://www.ireland.com/theticket/articles/2006/0127/1137626805983.html - and I have been playing loads from it over the last few weeks, including Woods, Vampire Weekend, Wooden Shjips, Mika Miko, No Age etc
Comment by Jim Carroll | March 5, 2008 at 11:54 amnot a bad compilation that one… i was impressed with the dan deacon track (i’ve somehow never managed to hear him before) but my favourite songs i discovered from it were from effi briest, magik markers and arthur & yu
Comment by Ally | March 6, 2008 at 3:15 pmAlly, check out Arthur & Yu’s American label:
www.hardlyart.com
It was set-up by Jonathan Poneman, founder of Sub Pop Records. I think some clever little acts will emerge on it.
To be honest, a lot of these music compilations have been disappointing over the years. Rough Trade Shops used to be great, but I can only find the odd four or five tracks (out of forty) on them nowadays which I really like.
Comment by Pedro | March 6, 2008 at 3:32 pmAnd what the hell happened to Kitsuné?! The last 2 compilations have been pitiful.
thanks pedro… i may do that…
…although i’d be a bit worried that i wouldn’t manage a whole album of arthur & yu… just a tad too indie-pop / twee for my ears… the song is great though taken on its own…
Comment by Ally | March 6, 2008 at 3:49 pmI don’t like Arthur & Yu. Not really my cup of tea - folk/pop…
Comment by Pedro | March 6, 2008 at 3:57 pmBut there is a gem of a band on the label called Le Loup. They’re more up my street.
