This week's Local Selection Mix features a high-octane hour from rising artist FAXE ON FAXE, delivering a dynamic journey through hardgroove, euro-dance, and rave-driven, steamrolling techno. Dublin-based DJ and producer FAXE ON FAXE has been making waves in Ireland's club scene with his eclectic and high-energy sets. Known for blending hardgroove, UK funky, euro-dance, and Latin house, he creates a unique sound brimming with percussive flair. His productions span a wide range of genres, earning him a reputation as an eclectic artist who seamlessly shifts between house, techno, trance, breaks, and more, constantly evolving his musical style. FAXE ON FAXE has been building a solid reputation within Dublin's tight-knit club community, having supported artists like MCR-T, Miley Serious, Caravel, and Shadylines across various venues. His music has been regularly featured in District Magazine and Four Four Magazine, further establishing his presence in the scene. On the festival front, FAXE ON FAXE made his debut at Beyond The Pale and Fuinneamh, marking key milestones in his growing career. His entry to the Local Selection Mix is a dynamic journey through various club sounds, starting with funk-laden tribal techno before transitioning into the harder, more closed-fisted early 00s techno. As the mix progresses, FAXE ON FAXE eases up on the upfront intensity, allowing the melodies and euphoria to shine through with trance and euro-dance-influenced techno. The latter part of the mix stays in this euphoric realm, giving tracks space to breathe while offering a glimpse of his housier tip, all while maintaining a faster, more smouldering energy.

This week, we're back in the studio!! Podge is home from New York and this week we welcome co-founder of District Magazine and podcaster, Eric Davidson. We chat about Irish hip hop culture, blogs in jocks and our favourite horror movies. This episode is proudly sponsored by Jameson Whiskey Ireland.
Welcome to the latest instalment of the Mabcast where Dylan is joined by the new co-host Jack Rapanakis. Irish hip hop is in an interesting time; The interest has never been higher and the DIY ethos is encouraging, however the recurring question remains how do the artists within the country gain an international platform? This is the question that governed the latest episode and with this in mind Dylan and Jack examined recent prominent events in Ireland through this lens. Longitude is arguably the biggest hip hop oriented festival in Ireland and gives slots to upcoming Irish acts. Though throughout the episode the point is made that Irish artists are still underrepresented and are given unfavourable time slots. Acts such as Nealo, Why-Axis and KneeCap in particular defied the odds and played to sizeable dedicated audiences. The argument for an all Irish stage is presented and the conversation evolves into an examination on the growing dialogue around hip hop using the District Magazine launch party as the crutch. Many of the topics probes on the numerous panel discussions were again brought to life throughout the podcast. As per all non guest episodes the boys critically review new tracks submitted to them and suggest new listens. One of the more insightful episodes that attempts to tackle the questions that haunt up and coming musicians – how to make a living.
To celebrate the one year anniversary of our podcast, we hosted a live panel discussion held in The Workman's Club on Saturday, 22nd June following the premiere of the short documentary on Irish hip-hop 'Up Next'. I was humbled to be joined on the panel by the film's director Bobby Zithelo, along with rising Irish artists Why-Axis, Nealo, Flynn Johnson and Nonzus Magnus.
