We had a busy week at AU (they all are though). Photo shoots and interviews in Dublin, working on our fifth birthday celebrations, plus a few new things in the offing that we'll reveal soon.
A highlight was a passing encounter involving a bicycle and the rush for a bus, where Richie Egan, AKA Jape, gave AU a copy of the new album 'Ritual'. Just had a wee spin at it and the first impressions are great, reckon it will be a solid staple of the AU Stereo for the next while. It's exciting to have such a good record coming out of Ireland right now. The album doesn't have the previous single 'Floating' on it (which was used during the final episode of Skins last week), which was a bit surprising, but the fact that it can be left off with ease just goes to show how much strong material he has.
You'll more about the album and from Richie in future issues of AU, in the meantime here's the video for 'Floating'.
Jape is awesome live too, so if you're in Dublin on Monday April 21 then make sure you're at the Crawdaddy to represent.
