The summer has pretty much come and gone, so I've come in from the sun to sit and blog after what, 3 months of laziness? Anyway, the first post in a while is going to be a plug for two people who, in my humble, possibly naive and unschooled opinion, are two of the best djs in our fair capital.
Antonio O'Duibhir and Max Conte run the DeepIntoTheBowelsOfHouse* night which over the past year has become quite the hotspot for house music. Actual, proper, soulful, party time house music. Between the pair of them they have to be two of the best selectors around, their mixes always dedicated to the central soul of the music, if not always for the dancefloor (some are more understated, introspective listening affairs, perfect for walking around to).
On top of this, their productions are some of the best I've come across, and Antonio has released an EP on Splendid Lo-Fi Records (I wrote about it in an earlier post).
DIBH has been uprooted and upgraded over the summer months to Tripod on monthly Fridays (I think, I'm out of the loop somewhat at the minute), but if you use the internet as a tool for the discovery of information you can confirm this without too much hassle.
So my point is go check them out in Tripod or even just listen to and appreciate the lads' latest mix, as well as a tune by Antonio under a new moniker that's available to download. For free, if you can believe it.

*In case you're curious as to the origins of the name, it's a tweaked title of a Dj Sprinkles song, "Grand Central Part 1 (Deep Into The Bowel Of House)", taken from the Midtown 120 Blues LP which was something of an instant classic on its release in 2009.
