Anyone know anything about this banger? The List, from Northwall,is a piece of Dublin inspired-techno I landed on by accident over on YouTube earlier. I’d welcome information on this, and wonder if our own in-house musical connoisseur jaycarax might know a bit more. Not every day a tune mentioning the Progressive Democrats, Youth Defence and Lillies Bordello pops up.
YouTuber fpittion, who booted this onto Youtube, noted: ‘Was given this back in 98-don’t know anything about it Funny lyrics in it-Anyone know who did this? I presume it is from Dublin’

From Declan Kaboogie on Facebook:
“I’m told that the tune is by a chap called Oisin Lunny who was in the hiphop group Marxman.

Just came across this post. Vocals by Ray O’Reilly who is a big DJ on the Irish Northern Soul scene.
Ha! Nice one. Cheers for the comment.
I bet it’s a big tune on the Northern Soul circuit (or maybe not)! It has an Underworld lager, lager feel to it which is cool.
A few vinyl copies are now available in Spindizzy Records, Georges Arcade.
