This documentary explores the little known inspiring story of the New Irish Recording Company (NIRC), a groundbreaking recording company and record label dedicated to Irish contemporary classical music. Established in 1971 by Seamus O'Neill, Rodney Senior, and Darby Carroll, the NIRC undertook the ambitious mission of recording Irish classical music in Ireland during a time when the industry was dominated by global giants like Deutsche Gramophone and EMI. Operating on a shoestring budget, the NIRC defied the odds, producing around 20 full-length recordings that elevated Irish classical music to the global stage. Sadly, much of this invaluable work remains largely unheard and is now difficult to access. Produced and presented by Jimmy Eadie.

Eddie Bazil Biog
Eddie Bazil launched his music industry career at the age of 17 as a synth programmer for a range of Electro / New Wave bands including Art of Noise, Spandau Ballet, Pet Shop Boys, Bobin, Paul Dee, DJ Krush, DJ Shadow, Jets Orchestra. By his 20s he was working as a sound designer for Akai, Roland Emu/Ensoniq, eventually signing on exclusively with the latter. Later, due to a growing demand for software instruments and libraries, Eddie started to develop libraries for various software manufacturers, including Native Instruments, Kiesel, Sound Effects Library, Arturia and Propellerheads. A meeting with Phil Allen, a Capital Radio DJ, resulted in the company Samplecraze, which Eddie has spent 20 years developing as an educational resource. At this time he trained in music production and soon gained a number of prominent contracts working with some notable artistes such as Busta Rhymes, Greensleeves, 9 Bar, SFP, Sleeveless, Chris Campbell and Gam Productions. He contracted to Island Records and Chrysalis as a producer and remixer,  plus was commissioned to write the score for Macbeth that ran at 2 Way Mirror at Alexander Palace for the Cambridge Shakespeare Company. His ongoing development of Samplecraze has led to him offering educational workshops and classes, releasing four books via PC Publishing and becoming a contributor and forum moderator for Sound On Sound. Recently he has established The Audio Production Hub for online education and been invited by the Recording Academy to become a Grammy judge.

Quantum Music: Dissecting the Modern Musician - Lodi Broekhuizen (4/30/2025)

A metal and hard rock protest song in my native language. The audio is mastered.

protest song_master

A track with the working title "54". Just the mix — mastering has not yet been started. Instrumental only, with no vocals recorded yet. Tempo: 162 BPM. Two lead guitars panned hard left and right, with a rhythm guitar in the center. The bass is slightly overdriven. Everything was done in a home studio environment.
