love life and triumph (arcs of triumph @ antics blog)

good morning, afternoon or evening,

this is our first post on the antics blog from the arcs of triumph. we'll be talking all things electronic, your microwave may even turn up in this if it makes a decent sound.
for those who have no idea who we are hit up our myspace @
www.myspace.com/thearcsoftriumph

or if bebo is your thing

we'll be posting a podcast right here and on our myspace & bebo pages from (hopefully) next week. this will have various ramblings about what's going on in electronic music in dublin and it will feature exclusive tracks and mixes from dublins up and coming and already established dj's and producers.


so on to our first recommendation!

we have the honour of having the dirty bassline driven insanity of pirate soundsystem down at tetric on the 3rd of july.
these two chaps from london have been causing a stir in clubs in the uk. they seem to be churning out dj sets hooked on every popular sound coming out of london at the moment. think rave reggae, dubstep, grime, breakbeat, and that's only the tip of the iceberg!

they have a remix list that reads like an honour roll too. remixing for such artists as bonde do role, shitdisco & hadouken!

for a taste of pirate soundsystems noise follow the links below and turn up your bass

pirate soundsystem- loves hit

pirate soundsystem- scream if you wanna go rasta

this week at tetric in the hub we have 3 of dublins finest acts down spinning the good stuff!

first up we have the four lads with a keen taste for rum, of course its drag queen bingo
then we have the trashed resident in the form of gavxmas
and to top off the line up we have the vinyl genius of jamie clarke!

so if you're about this thursday pop down to the hub and have a dance, sure its only a fiver in and we have tons of cheap drink!
