	Irish Music
		Irish traditional music was largely meant (to the best of our current knowledge) for dancing at celebrations for weddings, saint's days or other observances.
		However, the Irish style and rhythm of playing jigs and reels is quite distinct from bluegrass and old-time mandolin, and requires some amount of effort and listening to learn properly.
		The fashionability of Irish folk music at this time may be judged from the huge success that non-Irish band The Waterboys enjoyed with their albums Fisherman's Blues and Room to Roam, both of which are full of Irish folk influences.

	The Session: Discussions - Rap/Hip Hop and Irish Music
		In hip hop somebody starts a beat (beatboxing, which is vocal, or instrumental) and people freestyle which is rhyming words and phrases off the top of your head.
		Hip hop music is a cultural movement that sometimes makes political statements; in some circles, even playing Irish music is a political statement more powerful than words or lyrics.
		Irish music is the love of my life, but I'd prefer good hip hop with soul to some of the lame "tasteful" Irish trad.

	All-City Records, 7 Crow Street, Dublin 2
		Without question, Hazo is one of the best producers in Irish hip-hop, content to lurk in the shadows and leave his grooves hanging in the air.
		Hip hop is more visible in the Irish music scene these days, but there have been artists mixing the beats and rhymes for years, Hazo — one of Irish hip hop’s pioneers - is also one of the country’s best kept secrets.
		Formerly of the Irish hip hop group Homebrew, like Hazo and also Ri Ra, he has the integrity of the Irish old school tradition engrained in him, eschewing the tedious bragging and boasting of some of the new school, content to let those who appreciate craft and artistry on the mic come and find it.

	Music of Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Irish school children are generally taught the rudiments of playing on the tin whistle, just as school children in many other countries are taught the soprano recorder.
		The native Irish harping tradition was an aristocratic art music with its own canon and rules for arrangement and compositional structure, only tangentially associated with the folkloric music of the common people, the ancestor of present day Irish traditional music.
		The five-string banjo has had little or no role in Irish traditional music, and is often actively loathed by Irish musicians as a potential session-killer, since the clawhammer and three-finger picking styles used on this instrument by old-time and bluegrass musicians appear to be almost directly opposite to the pulse of Irish tunes.

	Irish Echo Online - Arts
		MicroMotion Entertainment is the best known Irish promotional company for this kind of house music event, flying in new Irish DJs each month to show off their distinctive skills to Irish and American club goers.

		While Hip Hop does indeed command more power than any other musical art form before it, too much weight is being put on its true power and potential.
		The sub-culture of Hip Hop is not built to support people in the manner that one can "BE" of other dominant cultures or faiths.
		What is and is NOT Hip Hop is usually co-opted by those in the Hip Hop community from an outside source.

	Untitled Document
		Brooklyn native Chris Byrne had given up his day-time gig as a NYC cop in the Times Square precinct and was rapping with Black '47 when Ireland's 1994 advance to the World Cup inspired him to release the single "C'mon Ya Boyz n' Green" under the name Seanchaí.
		The single was met with such excitement in the New York Irish music scene that Byrne (in his persona of Seanchaí) decided to team up with Pat McGuire (of Spéir Mor) and acclaimed fiddle player Eileen Ivers forming Paddy-A-Go-Go.
		Her musical influences are so eclectic -- spanning Motown, Traditional Irish music, African music, Indian Music, R and B, and Hip-Hop -- that you end up asking what she doesn't like.
