3epkano are a Dublin based collective, formed by Cameron Doyle and Matthew Nolan, who are dedicated to producing original soundtracks to silent, avant-garde, and contemporary cinema. Since 2004, the group have played numerous headline shows in both Ireland and the US to critical acclaim. They have also been commissioned to produce new music for a number of prestigious institutions including The National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin Fringe Festival, Film Society of Lincoln Centre and the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) in New York. In 2008 the group took responsibility for curating the new alternative music strand at the Kilkenny Arts Festival, a programme which included Mercury Rev, Spiritualized, and Lisa Hannigan to name but a few. They returned to BAM in 2010 to premier their score for Diary of a Lost Girl and also performed early in 2011 at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC to launch their winter movie calendar. Their latest project involves a collaboration with the renowned Irish singer, Iarla O’Lionaird, on a score for the German expressionist classic, Der Golem. They celebrate 10 years together as a band in 2014 and will mark this with a series of prestigious events in Ireland, Germany, France, and the US. 2014 will also see a DVD release of their soundtrack to Der Golem.

Electronic Music Producer from Dublin, Ireland

2009-2014 Irish music blog.  It was pretty good.

Donal is currently on air twice a week with his RTE show Radio Activity, on Friday mornings from 10am-1pm with 2XM and on Sunday nights from 10pm - midnight on 2FM. 

The Parish recording project, assembled by Donal Dineen late in 2010, began life three years previously with a show he put together for Body & Soul at the Electric Picnic in 2007 with Liam O Maonlai & Ronan O Snodaigh. That spectacular night ended with a promise to try & get together in the studio whenever time allowed. So finally, in January 2011, Donal spent a fortnight in the Exchequer Studios in Dublin with Liam & Niwel Tsumbu. The recording began by covering some of the ground they touched on in 2007's & subsequent Electric Picnic appearances but soon progressed to the composition of original material.  New tracks will be released here as they come out, and you can expect a new release in Autumn 2013.

Liam is the songwriter in chief with vocal duties shared with Aminah Dastan from the group Madu. Subsequent sessions took place with Ronán on persussion, Andre Antunes on drums and Peter Erdei on bass, all of whom have joined Donal onstage for live Parish shows over the last couple of years.
