My Year in Music – March 2026
March is easy… I think. I wouldn’t actually know. I spent most of it working or playing Genshin. Very productive, aren’t I? The good thing is that summer time has started in Ireland; the days are getting longer and the weather is getting better kind of (not really). For the first time in a while,…

In Depth Mini Album Review – Big Ocean’s THE GREATEST BATTLE
Honestly, coming into this review, I constantly thought of Big Ocean as very different from me despite the fact that, as K-pop idols go, they are perhaps the most like me. Much like me (Emma), the members of Big Ocean are all hard of hearing in some capacity. Formed under Parastar Entertainment, Big Ocean consists…

My Year In Music – February 2026
Well, it seems February has come to an end. A month where I worked too much and didn’t/couldn’t give myself the breaks I needed. In my defence, I wasn’t exactly given much choice when it came to rest. But now I think I can pause and think long enough to prepare this post for you…

Intro to K-Pop 101
So, I heard that an Irish radio show was discussing K-pop and Stray Kids lately (and they didn’t invite me? Rude!), so I think it’s only right that I offer you all the opportunity to experience some of the best (in my opinion) that the K-pop industry has to offer. Class is now in session,…

What Keeps Me Awake At Night
So, in a sharp 180 degree shift of tone from our last post, let’s get serious(ish). Let’s talk about sleep…. Or, more accurately, my lack thereof. “You’re a horrible person.”“I know. It keeps me awake at night.”Stiles Stilinski, Teen Wolf Don’t worry, I don’t think I’m a horrible person but I’m sure some people do…

ASMR: More than just “Brushing a Microphone.”
For the past seven years, ASMR has been a constant staple in my YouTube Subscription tab. I first stumbled across ASMR when listening to Calming Music during a rather stressful night doing college assignments back in 2013. From there, I really did fall down the rabbit hole so to speak when it comes to ASMR…

My Year in Music – April 2020
Here we are again, another month begins and another bunch of additions are made to the My Year In Music playlists on Spotify and YouTube. This started out as little New Years Resolution for my own personal amusement; I would note a unique song (or songs) on a daily basis in a journal that I…

April Monthly Round Up
Here’s to the longest month in existence: APRIL!!! Another few weeks of lockdown done and dusted; yeah, it’s hard but every day is another day closer to the end of it all but we’re not there just yet. We’re doing our best to have a positive outlook on everything but days like these are definitely…

Digital vs Physical
In the time of digital downloads and streaming, do we still really need new physical copies of music? Why bother buying copies of music that just take up space when you can have all your music on your phone? Which is better, the physical version of an album or the digital one? Is there even…

Forgotten Disney Jewels
Forgotten Disney Jewels I hear you say? What exactly are forgotten Disney Jewels? Well, dear readers, today it is all about those Disney movies that for, whatever reason, did not get the appreciation they deserved throughout time! I’m talking about a forgotten Disney Princess, epic storylines, fun animation, an interesting bad guy or two and…

Spotlight Artist: Moncrieff
We adore finding new and upcoming Irish Music Acts here at Our Muchness Guide. Today, April 16th, in a parallel non COVID-19 world, Niamh should be attending her very first Moncrieff gig but the world had other plans. Of course, the gig got rescheduled to September but I thought, to mark the day that should…

Disney Top 10s
So with isolation fever setting in, now is the time to sit down in front of the TV and regress, right? And with Disney+ in so many homes now, it’s easier than ever to become a kid again. Everyone has their favourites but what are our top ten Disney only movies? To make life a…
