"Shakshouka" is a dialectal arabic word used in North Africa to reflect an unexpected mixture of elements that wouldn’t naturally go together. This radio show encapsulates this idea by showcasing how maghrebian sonorities blend with other influences from reggae, dance-pop to hip hop, all under the spectrum of Raï, taking you through a musical journey of one-of-a-kind melodies.

Raising Holy Sparks

Raising Holy Sparks

Raising Holy Sparks has been played on NTS shows including Self and Other, with Live At The Unitarian Church, Dublin 27-3-12 Part I first played on 19 July 2019.

David Colohan (Agitated Radio Pilot, United Bible Studies, The Magickal Folk of the Faraway Tree) seems to have a preternatural sense of the elemental, those dark places we all go to take off our disguises. So many artists have treaded this ground before and seemed insincere, but Colohan's vulnerability, his human voice that presents these unadorned truths without spin or motive.

David Colohan, who has been joined thus far by Vicky Langan, Declan Kelly, Audrey Ryan, Aaron Coyne & Paul Condon in performance & recording.

"I rejoice that there are owls. Let them do the idiotic and maniacal hooting for men. It is a sound admirably suited to swamps and twilight woods which no day illustrates, suggesting a vast and underdeveloped nature which men have not recognized. They represent the stark twilight and unsatisfied thoughts which all men have." Thoreau, Walden
