Anyone remember the band In Motion? I had an ep by them with a track called (I think) "It takes a long while (to see you smile)". Great track. Would have come out around 1994-ish I reckon.

I should know but can't really remember.
I think the ep was called "for an evenings velvet ending".

Always admired yer man out of In Motion's guitar playing. Quite tricky stuff to play and sing along to.

Not lost particularly, but certainly not as well known as it should be, and definitely one of the great Irish singles, in my opinion:

The Blades: Downmarket

Can't believe no-one's mentioned Bambi. they had some cracking singles. 'Supertease' is my fav. Mexican Pets had some great ones alright. I especially love Diana the Moon, the b-sides are even better. The first two Connectfour Orchestra 7"s. The Coldspoons - 'Tesseract'...

'Death to Disco' by Ten Speed Racer

Great 12". Hats off to ye. The Wheel song is incredible.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

The Wheel 7" was good too.

Anyone remember the Slippies? Saw them at a DARC fm benefit in Charlies (I think) years ago and they were amazing. Did they ever release anything?

The Wheel 7" was good too.

It was indeed. And the split 7" with 'Navigate the Muscle' was quality also.

I remember a band called the Marbles who had a great single when I started college - about 96. I think they were from Sligo or someplace. No idea how it went or what is was called but it was the biz. As was that Woodstar one.

The track by my petrol emotion with the she bangs the drums riff, nearly sure it was sensitize...that'd be on the compilation as well

The Marbles had one called So Far Away,
catchy tune, bit like Suede

We remember them, in fact we've just digitally reissued their debut album 'The Language of Everyday Life' with 2 bonus tracks including 'It Takes A Long While' which was on their 'For An Evening’s Velvet Ending' EP.

Here ya go!

Anyone remember the name of that Irish hip-hop/DJ Shadow-style group they'd often play on No Disco (Donal Dineen era)?

Think there was 3 of them and the single I really liked....I think they were creeping around hotel corridors or something like that. Around 97/98 I'd say.

Any ideas?
