TOP 5 MILLENIAL CRINGE ANTHEMS ft. Tessa Ndjonkou

Some say millennials have a lot to answer for. Well on this podcast, we very much prove that to be true. On this week's NO ENCORE-proper, we're joined by Newstalk digital journalist Tessa Ndjonkou for a return to Sonic Architowers as we examine a generational level of cringe (literally) via our preferred medium of music. Believe us, there's no shortage. Something that is far from cringeworthy, however, is the NO ENCORE Patreon where we have plenty of bonus content for you to enjoy including Adam's recent Album Club on Mura Masa's debut self-titled effort, including a wonderfully-coincidental call-back to our recent Top 5. As if that wasn't good enough, forthcoming for Dave and Andy's Film Club is a post-match analysis of the new Scream 7 movie (or SCRE7M as we've been affectionately calling it) immediately after the premiere. Finger-on-the-pulse podcasting right there. All for €5 per month and annual memberships come with a 10% discount. On to the show! ACT ONE: Dave attended his beloved WU LYF live in concert not once, but twice over the weekend and Adam made a valiant attempt to snatch up some of those highly sought-after Foo Fighters tickets for their show in The Academy, and they have plenty to talk about. ACT TWO (44:15): Enter Tessa! A brief Industry love-in pre-news, controversy at the BAFTAs, MET Gala theme revealed(?), Alysa Liu's musical selections bring their own kind of Gold certification at the Winter Olympics, Nicki Minaj and her bots and Homer Simpson's AI covers are causing a bit of a stir with a certain hipster platform – it's the news. ACT THREE (1:33:19): Top 5 Millenial Cringe Anthems Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

TOP 5 MUSIC THAT DOESN'T EXIST

Is this the real life? Or is this just fantasy?

SOUND FIRST: THE HIFI BAR EXAMINED

From Tokyo to London to New York and even back home here in Dublin, hi-fi bars are redefining the bar scene across the world — blending high-end sound systems, curated vinyl and a variety of drinks options into one immersive experience. In a world where background music has become background noise, a particular kind of bar is asking patrons to start listening by putting music at the forefront of their business, as well as integrating the nightlife culture we know and love. In this special episode of NO ENCORE, Sonic Architect Adam Shanahan explores how these spaces emerged, why they resonate now, and what they reveal about our changing relationship with sound with some of the most in-the-know guests on-offer. Guests: Dave Parle (Booker @ Hidden Agenda and owner @ The Big Romance and Fidelity Bar & Studio)Emmy Shigeta (DJ, resident @ Fidelity Bar)Toby Hatchett (Sound system designer @ The Big Romance, Hang Dai, Connolly's of Leap, Fidelity Bar & Studio)Chris Maestro (Owner @ BierWax, Brooklyn, New York City)Daithí Ó Drónaí (former co-host @ NO ENCORE and hi-fi bar enthusuast)- This episode originally aired on Patreon on 03/11/2025.

We are in Super Bowl week, after all – and you can be sure we didn't impose on ourselves the same twelve-minute time limit for this podcast!
