I'm Karl. I write this blog and write for Totally Dublin. In a past life I got way too personal with my criticism of Sean McTiernan's predilection for Kendrick Lamar and dulcimer music made by psychotic men in forests on the legendary Them's The Vagaries podcast. Available to sell out in almost any way for money.

is my e-mail address. I don't really attempt to break new music here or anything, but every few months when I'm bored I pick random shit out of my inbox and free associate with it, so send me your Bjork remix or whatever.1. Non-Solipsistic Places I Do Stuff

Box Social in pictures
Last Saturday, the Box Social celebrated its tenth gig with a mini-festival stretching from mid-afternoon to late night and taking in everything from the could-not-be-further-off-kilter Ewa Gigon‘s vocal loops and semi-spoken word admonishments to an acoustic set from Crayonsmith, a … Continue reading

Saturday at the Box Social
So on Saturday I made the pilgrimage to the Box Social in the alluringly mysterious venue of “Behind No. 236 South Circular Road”. Sure enough, when you make it to 236 South Circular Road, you are met with a sign … Continue reading
Interview Project #23: Jogging
Jogging have just released their debut album, Minutes, on Richter Collective. Some verbs you could use to describe it are: blistering, gutsy, energetic. The band consists of Ronan Jackson (who answered the questions) playing bass, Darren Craig on guitar and … Continue reading
Interview Project #21: Children Under Hoof
This is Children Under Hoof. It’s almost forgivable to think of them as a supergroup, given that their ranks include half of Dublin’s experimental scene, including but not limited to Robyn’s Catscars and Paddy‘s Nialler9 Reader’s Poll winning solo stuff. … Continue reading
Interview Project #20: The Former Soviet Republic
The Former Soviet Republic is the musical project of Ian Wright, who you might possibly know as Thrill Pier. His debut album, The Former Soviet Republic Is Made Of This is about to be released on his own label, The … Continue reading
Patrick Kelleher live outdoor doo-wop set
This is one for collectors. It’s a bootleg of a doo-wop set by Patrick Kelleher at the all-day 10th Box Social over the summer. It might be the moment ghost-wop was formed. Picture’s a link. From Digestion Machine, which is … Continue reading
Interview Project #9: Hunter-Gatherer
Hunter-Gatherer is an electronic artist who makes the music of the sultry night. The kind of music you toss and turn to, where you zone in and out of sleep, awake but caught up in your own half-dream visions. You … Continue reading
Interview Project #4: Porn On Vinyl
Porn On Vinyl is Aidan Wall, a man forcing dreams into mp3 files via the kindly intercession of a nylon-string guitar, his voice and smothering layers of lo-fi fuzz of more the Daniel Johnston variety than, say, the Wavves variety. … Continue reading
Interview Project #3: Patrick Kelleher
“Somewhere far below the dross infested peak of Mount Delorento, strange and wonderful rumblings are now emanating from the Irish underground.” – Gardenhead, Analogue Magazine. Patrick Kelleher is an experimenter/freak folkist/sonic mood adjuster originally from Glendalough, Co. Wicklow but now … Continue reading

As a rule I don’t do news posts here, but up until recently I didn’t do podcasts, interviews or pointless lists of books either, so fuck it. The above is a picture of the space Dylan Haskins from Hideaway House/Hideaway … Continue reading
