A new ten-part series of RTÉ podcasts explores the role of Ireland's independent record labels in a much-changed musical landscape.
Across ten episodes, Independents Day features an in-depth look at Irish independent record labels with interviews with the originators of these labels. It focuses on their original concept for the label, as well as their desire to promote the music they love, with genres from indie, folk, hip hop, sound art, jazz, traditional and electronic.
Episode 3: Homebeat has grown from the humble beginnings of a series of successful, local artist-focused house concerts, to hold a heartfelt position in the Irish music scene as creators of innovative, atmosphere led music events across the country.
