### Updates

A super busy week, with barely a moment free in the evenings.I saw some live music on Saturday night last week (more below). Monday was spent on the winning side of a [Dublin Quiz League](https://quizireland.ie/events/dublin-quiz-league/?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk) fixture, and Tuesday night I had an excellent meal with some colleagues at [Library Street](https://www.librarystreet.ie/?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk).

This weekend, we're in London checking out come exhibitions, more on that to come!

**Reading**. Nick Cleggs 'How to fix the Internet'. Still getting through this, reading progress is still not consistent, I need to protect my time a bit more. 

### Live Music

Last Sunday I took my first visit to the Grand Social in Dublin to see local band The Prongs. I recently discovered their Psychogeography EP and ordered a copy on vinyl via [Bandcamp](https://theprongs.bandcamp.com/music?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk). During a quick email exchange with their singer, John, he mentioned the live show. 

I enjoyed seeing them live, I expected a duo but there were five on stage and the show was excellent. I got tohear some tracks I didn't know and the visuals that accompanied were great. 

A few pictures from the show:

### Recommended Music

This week, my recommendation is the stunning new album Tranquiliser from Oneohtrix Point Never, aka Daniel Lopatin. 

It's another collection of beautiful, mostly ambient electronica - which manages to be both relaxing and unsettling in places - but always prefectly listenable. 

I anticipate this will end up on some end of year lists, excellent stuff.   
  
**Highly recommended.** 

### Listened Stuff

Here's ten artists I have listened to this week. 

- Headache
- Clare M Singer
- Finnegan Tui
- Gary Numan
- Baxter Dury (Live)
- Black Dog
- Celeste
- Kae Tempest
- Turin Brakes
