An Taobh Tuathail (RnaG)

March 27th, 2006 by site admin

An Taobh Tuathail is a fantastically good radio show that I discovered one night many moons ago, as I wandered home one night through an unknown part of the area I lived in at the time. Discovering this new area, I was distracted by the music playing on my walkman, as if captivated by the musical journey I was hearing, I continued through the night.

Since then, listening to it is a near every night occurence if I can help it. The show is between 23:00 and lasts until 1am.

The blurb below is from the ‘An Taobh Tuathailwebsite.

The programme is unique among Irish national radio shows in that it pursues a leftfield music agenda, drawing on quality music worldwide, be it house, electro, hip-hop, drum’n'bass, techno, post-rock or nu-jazz. It is one of the only shows on the national airwaves that is passionately devoted to broadcasting brand new electronic music from across the globe, from Dublin to Tokyo to Rio De Janeiro.

it is also with pleasure that I see that they have a dropdown of the track listings played for the last couple of months, and not only that, the last weeks shows availble as audio feeds! these links are available from the site.

An Taobh Tuathail‘ is usually the precursor to my listening of Donal Dineen’s show on Todayfm(previously mentioned here. Donal also has track listings of the artists he features, as well as a live feed of course, and is heard between the hours of 00:00 and 2am.

shutting down db’s

nicely said, Donncha

“…cases where it is ok to kill the database with a ‘kill -9′: * International terrorists are planning on robbing the World Bank and you%u2019re the only secret agent who can bring down the database which will stop them. * Lassie will be run over by the evil farmer who plagued the local village with his monster cows unless you can corrupt his database in time. * Or finally, you like hard work and restoring from backups!”
