How to sustain independent music communities in Dublin
As music grows ever more entangled with unethical platforms and increased corporate interests – artists, organisers, and fans are rethinking their roles in the ecosystem, and building alternatives.
This live episode of the Nialler9 Podcast will explore how to build and sustain independent music communities in Dublin and what they look like. We’ll look at how artists, labels, collectives, and grassroots organisers are cultivating alternative networks — through co-operative communities, DJ collectives and community-run festivals to local DIY performance spaces and more.
