A bit of a different podcast for you this month (and at nearly 2 hours, a long one) as myself and Aoife sat down and talked about the best things that happened in 2010. We cover Irish acts and labels we loved this year, gigs of 2010, albums and songs of 2010, tv and video moments of the year and my own personal discovery of the year – Shangaan Electro. Full rundown below. Artwork by Stephen Graham.
