Why Ireland Still Sings Viva la Quinta Brigada | Christy Moore, Anti-Fascism & the Belfast Riots

Following the recent unrest in Belfast, I found myself returning to one of the most powerful songs in Irish music: Christy Moore’s Viva la Quinta Brigada. What begins as a song about Irish volunteers who travelled to Spain to fight fascism during the Spanish Civil War reveals a much deeper story about Ireland itself. In this episode of The Last Mixed Tape, I explore the Connolly Column, the Blueshirts, Irish support for Franco, and Christy Moore’s role as one of Ireland’s great custodians of cultural memory. More than a history lesson, this is a story about identity, belonging, and a question Ireland has been asking for nearly a century: Who gets to define what Ireland is? From the Spanish Civil War to modern Ireland, Viva la Quinta Brigada remains a song that refuses to let us forget the choices that surround us. Topics discussed: • Christy Moore • Viva la Quinta Brigada • The Spanish Civil War • The Connolly Column • The Blueshirts • Irish history • Anti-fascism • Belfast and modern Ireland • Protest music and cultural memory The Last Mixed Tape is a podcast and video essay series exploring music, culture and the stories that connect them.

episode CMAT Just Said What Most Pop Stars Won’t cover

CMAT Just Said What Most Pop Stars Won’t

When CMAT won Best Album at the Ivor Novello Awards, she used her acceptance speech to challenge fellow artists to stop “sitting on the fence” as fascism and far-right politics continue to rise across Britain and Ireland. It was a speech that immediately made headlines. But this episode isn’t really about one speech. It’s about the role artists play during moments of political and social tension. From Euro-Country and its examination of post-Celtic Tiger Ireland, to her support of drag culture at the Choice Music Prize, CMAT’s intervention at the Ivors didn’t come from nowhere. It was the latest expression of ideas that have been present throughout her work for years. This episode explores the speech itself, the atmosphere in which it was delivered, and a bigger question that sits at the heart of modern music culture

episode How Irish Music Helped Break the Catholic Church’s Power cover

How Irish Music Helped Break the Catholic Church’s Power

For much of the twentieth century, the Catholic Church shaped almost every aspect of Irish life education, sexuality, family, politics, shame and silence. But long before Ireland changed politically, Irish artists began documenting the emotional cost of that world through music. From Christy Moore’s response to the death of Ann Lovett… to Sinéad O’Connor tearing up a photograph of the Pope on live television… to Hozier, Marriage Equality, Repeal the 8th and Fontaines D.C… this episode explores how Irish music became both witness and protest during one of the most profound cultural transformations in modern Irish history. Part music documentary, part cultural essay, this is the story of how songs carried truths Ireland often struggled to say aloud until eventually the silence itself began to collapse.

episode Why Artists Are Scared To Change | Charli XCX, Rock Music & Authenticity in the Streaming Era cover

Why Artists Are Scared To Change | Charli XCX, Rock Music & Authenticity in the Streaming Era

“I think the dance floor is dead… so now we’re making rock music.” One sentence from Charli XCX sparked immediate online discourse. Was this the end of Brat? A reinvention? A provocation? Or something much bigger about modern music culture itself? In this episode of The Last Mixed Tape, Stephen White explores Charli XCX’s Rock Music as a case study in artistic reinvention during the streaming era — where algorithms reward familiarity, audiences expect consistency, and authenticity itself has become increasingly performative. From David Bowie and LCD Soundsystem to hyperpop, TikTok culture and the collapse of scene identity, this episode asks: What does authenticity actually mean in 2026? And maybe more importantly: Is risking your audience now the only truly authentic thing an artist can do? 🎧 The Last Mixed Tape Hosted by Stephen White

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
