It was an all-vinyl affair on this evening's Irish Beats as Rob dug into his collection to bring you some of the warmest homegrown sounds around. There was one electronic selection before breaking into the guitars - well worth turning your radios up to 11! The second of the show was a documentary following one WIT student's quest to get into the format. 'Gianluca Wants a Record Player' asks questions like what's so appealing about vinyl? Who's listening to the format? Does it really sound better than Spotify? Should Gianluca go ahead and get a turntable?
