Leftfield to headline Cork festival Townlands Carnival

Townlands Carnival, now in its fourth year and growing exponentially, continues to bring the big-weekend feel home to Rusheen Farm just outside the town, with UK legends Leftfield confirmed as the first headliners for July 20-22, with a DJ set from the outfit’s Neil Barnes, alongside box-wearing rabble-rousers King Kong Company, and an incursion from UK bass label Ghetto Funk, featuring Stanton Warriors, three-time UK DMC champ JFB, WBBL & Ghetto Funk Allstars.

Here is the lineup so far:

  • Leftfield (DJ set)
  • King Kong Company
  • Ghetto Funk Takeover feat. Stanton Warriors, JFB, WBBL & Ghetto Funk Allstars
  • The Eskies
  • The Latchikos
  • Worries Outernational
  • Rrradio Gee
  • Rub-a-Dub HIFI
  • Spekulativ Fiktion
  • Lowli
  • Damsel
  • Dry Roasted Peanuts
  • Bailer
  • Order of the Mess

“We’re absolutely delighted to be back in 2018 and are excited to begin a partnership with Rising Sons Brewery this summer,” says festival organiser, Sam Beshoff. “The response to Townlands 2017 was phenomenally positive and as well as bringing back many of the features that proved to be a hit already, we are hoping to add some new treats for our followers this July.”

The festival’s ‘village’ layout returns across five stages spread throughout the woods and fields of Rusheen Farm, and encompasses plenty of non-musical activity also, including spoken word, circus, and family-friendly activities. The Village Green, which includes the Village Hall, Big Bubbles Kids Area and Craft area, returns this year as workshops, talks and performances are hosted by some of the country’s most passionate community development professionals, while the usual rake of ‘glamping’ options are available this year, if you’re feeling flathúlach.

Check out the festival’s website for more information and a rundown of previous years’ lineups.

Leftfield return with first album in 16 years

It was 1999 the last time Leftfield released an album. The duo of Neil Barnes and Paul Daley released two classic albums in Leftism and Rhythm & Stealth.

Daley didn’t return when the Leftfield name was brought back to life to play festivals (Barnes is DJing as Leftfield at the upcoming BD Festival) but however, there is a new Leftfield album on the way called Alternative Life Source and it will feature TV on the Radio’s Tunde Adebimpe, Ofei, Sleaford Mods and Channy Leaneagh of Poliça.

That all sounds very much like the standard of The Prodigy and the Chemical Bros ten years ago roping in guest stars for a full-length. I don’t know how to feel about it. For now, the one track we do have ears on ‘Universal Everything’, is a pulsing techno monster that sounds a lot like Modeselektor. How do we feel about Leftfield returning? 👍 or 👎

The album is out in June on Infectious.

The Nialler9 weekly Dublin gig guide

Scuba

Win tickets to Scuba on Thursday below.

A list of recommended events taking place over the next seven days in Dublin.

Not a whole lot of things happening for the Bank Holiday weekend apart from Life Festival in Mullingar where Joker, Ricardo Villalobos, Mad Professor and more play for a seemingly pricey €136. Back in the city, it’s the Beatyard Weekender with the likes of Andy Votel, Rubberbandits, Caspa, Howard Marks and more in the Twisted Pepper. During the week, there’s Band of Horses, the Leftfield reunion (with only one member mind) and the brilliant Sam Amidon (highly recommended).

On Thursday, Hotflush Recordings boss Scuba is playing Salt at Twisted Pepper. Worth checking out especially if you’ve heard his Triangulation LP. I’ve got two passes to giveaway to the gig – send the answer to the question – “What is the name of Scuba’s record label?” to [email protected] before Wednesday night to win.

Tuesday 1st June
– Rangda, Boys of Summer @ Whelan’s (€14.50)
– I Am Not Left Handed @ Whelan’s Upstairs (€10)
– Booker T @ The Village (€35)

Wednesday 2nd June
