The creators of Punk Economics, the animated web are currently searching for Irish music to feature on upcoming episodes. The series is a new of looking at the economy based on the central idea that what is important is not complicated and what is complicated is never important.
The music needs to be instrumental as it will run under McWilliam’s narration. Any songs usually featuring vocals can be submitted with vocals removed. The episodes have a combined viewership of over 350,000 on YouTube and could be an easy and innovative way of getting your music heard by an international audience.
Artists will be credited at the end of each video and a link to the artist’s iTunes will also be included in the information section of each episode on YouTube. Music (mp3s) can be sent to punkeconomicsmusic@gmail.com
Below is the first Punk Economics with soundtrack from the Hassle Merchants; Rocketsurgery; The Eskies and James Guilmartin:

Got four minutes? Let fast-talking ‘Mathemusician’ Vi Hart (she of ‘Why Spongebob Squarepants Does NOT Live In A Pineapple Under The Sea’) introduce you to the word of six-sided flexagons – flippable geometric thingies folded from a simple strip of paper.
It’s educational.
You there at the back. Bring that up here.

So it turns out that Stephen Ireland’s talents not only lie on a football pitch but also as a driving instructor. In this clip from Sunday night’s Celebrity Bainsteoir episode Jessica Lawlor brings her partner Stephen Ireland over for a training session with her team, Ballinora GAA Club in Cork.
It’s possibly worth noting – for a couple fond of their cars – that the rental was manual.
