    Happy New Year! Hope you had a lovely festive season. We’re back with the first episode of The London Ear for 2017.

    Interview with aidan from Floatinghome

    On today’s show I’m delighted to catch up with aidan from Floatinghome. I know aidan a long time and we manage to catch up about once a year. He’s a singer songwriter based in Berlin and works as a sound engineer. He also works with Wallis Bird.

    It was good to chat about his album ‘Dreams for Dreamers’ and how he managed to get me on one of his tracks.

    You can follow Floatinghome on Facebook and on their website.

    As well as playing some new Irish music (besides Floatinghome), I also played a couple of my favourite George Michael tracks to finish off the show. I’m going to write about it at some stage, but I’m truly devastated by George’s death, his music and production always influenced me. So I play a couple of my George tracks.

    Calling all remixers: Remix tracks from aidan’s le grand discours

    aidanbannerThe evenings are long and dark, perfect time for all you budding remixers to get stuck into something new.

    Irish born and raised, though now living in Brussels, aidan is a singer songwriter who double jobs as a member of Wallis Bird’s band and he’s also one of the most talented people I know but please don’t tell him that.

    Anyway, aidan managed to get himself 500 fans on Facebook over the weekend so he has decided to get three tracks from his album remixed. What are you waiting for? Getting cracking!

    Here are the tracks, download links and some videos to accompany them.

  • aidan: Bells of the Morning (video)

    It gives me great pleasure in being able to show you the new video from aidan. This is the lead track from his current album ‘Le grand discours’, a review of which shall be on the virtual pages of this very blog as soon as I get my thesis done. Sit back and enjoy the wonder of stop motion and the wonder of aidan’s 360 degree somersault! Tout fait extraordinaire!

  • Wallis Bird: Encore (Video)

    I first heard this Wallis Bird song a couple of weeks ago and it’s one that will get into your head and stay there. Thanks to the nice people at Rolling Stone for the video. Encore is taken from Wallis’ third album, due out in March, entitled, ‘Wallis Bird’, not sure where she got that name from. Love the video, looks like aidan got a haircut.
