OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE

Belfast Underground are proud to announce that on Saturday 12th September 2015, Belfast Underground Radio launches and will provide a much needed and game changing musical concept, inside its Queen Street record store.

We believe this will be the only online radio station in the WORLD, that will broadcast live daily… from inside a record store in a multi camera video fashion.

Belfast Underground Radio will go out LIVE via internet streaming to the world through a 5 camera high definition video feed. The station shall build to broadcast live, 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, from inside the record store. A glass fronted station room is currently being designed specifically for the station and will fit perfectly into a corner of the long store. This also offers the music loving public the unique opportunity to catch a direct glimpse of DJs at work.

This Saturday – 26th Aug @ Belfast Underground

SO the record racks are well and truly stuffed ahead of tomorrow’s onslaught. I’ve added well over 300 House & Techno this week, over 100 trance / hard dance and 70+ Funk, Soul, Disco. All this alongside some lovely downtempo stuff and rock albums.

AND AND AND

The complimentary Underground refreshment shelf biscuit of choice this week is the incredible…

KitKat.

What more can you say about these glorious chocolate covered wafer fingers that hasn’t already been preached over kitchen tables across the land for decades.

These absolute weapons are the definition of an oldskool snack. Forget about all the arsey flavoured derivatives on the shelves, head straight for the classics every time.

When life gets tough you can rely on these, along with a good brew, to add a little bit of comfort and familiarity back into your life.

Winner.

Open from 12-5 tomorrow

A handy tip for travelling record shop crate diggers

A very useful little tip for all you travelling crate diggers out there.

We are all well aware of just how awkward certain airlines can be when returning home with large amounts of extra baggage. Some of the fees that get added can be crazy, especially for heavy items such as the beloved vinyl records.

When you go to a different city to buy records and there’s plane travel involved, our advice is to print off a pre paid UPS or Royal Mail shipping label before you go, allowing for up to 10kg, grab a box from a shop (they all have them) and post them back to yourself on a slow service (£10 max) Thus rendering your hands free and shoulders in tact for sight seeing and supping pints. You also don’t have the airport size & weight headache.

This works on so many levels.

Bedrock Belfast at Shine sells out months ahead of event!

Legendary Belfast clubbing institution Shine have been announcing a steady flow of forthcoming events as we slowly begin to creep back to normality again after our various lockdowns.

Bedrock, the brainchild of superstar DJ and technical master John Digweed is coming to Belfast on 19th November, and Shine have sold out their entire quota of tickets in days, and literally 5 months ahead of the event.

Maybe there is such a yearning inside our nations youth to get back into society and spread their rave wings once again after being couped up for so long? or maybe the sheer might and power that Bedrock and indeed Mr Digweed still hold in our scene is incredibly strong? Who knows what the driving force is - I just know that it’s such a heart warming thing to read one again for the local entertainment industry.
