This week marks the 50-year anniversary of the birth of hip-hop, far away in Bronx in NY, USA. It has since grown in legitimacy to become one of the most popular genres of music around the world. So what's happening right now in the UK and Ireland? We dove into the modern UK and Irish hip hop scenes, looking at some of the unique subgenres hip hop has spawned through collaborations and shared influences, from grime, UK drill, neo-jazz drawing from jazz and RnB particularly in London, grime-punk, etc. We also looked at Welsh and Irish hip hop.

This week we were on air for two hours, and had brand new releases, talked about the 2023 Mercury Prize shortlist that was released earlier in the week, and had an in-depth interview with Belfast post punk band Enola Gay, whose brand of unapologetic political post punk caught the world's attention in 2020. They are coming to North America (Toronto - 17 Sept at the Drake Underground) this fall, and told me all about it. Music this week by

It's been a big week for nostalgic band tours, and we talked all about it. Plus new music, and a guest, Clara in the studio bringing in some cool music picks, plus joining me in the Mic Room to talk about The Horrors (the band, not like... existential horrors. Not the Horrors. The Horrors (band), and their debut album, 2009's Primary Colours.) This week's podcast is horrendously late because I was losing my mind in Montreal at a secret Foo Fighters gig on Monday. Still recovering. Sorry. Music this week by
