INTER(NET) CULTURAL RADIO NORTHERN IRELAND / TUNE IN /
Promoting World and Roots Music & Cultural Exchange within Northern Ireland and Globally...
Positivity, Multiculturalism, Respect.
Homely Planet Inter(net) Cultural Radio is a service to assist cultural relations and education in Northern Ireland and to promote global exchange.
Homely Planet’s vision is to show how people representing different cultures & religions contribute in a more positive way to the economic and social status of society when we respect & have a better understanding of each others’ diversity.
The radio service will allow all communities, faith groups, schools, organisations, artists and individuals to participate in broadcasting items exploring religion, race and cultural diversity.
Northern Ireland has gone through many changes and an uncomfortable history of division and conflict. The need for education providing a clear understanding of different cultures is now, more than ever a paramount issue.
Homely Planet will assist to meet this need by providing a forum for learning, cultural and race relations, equality and diversity education.
With addition to cultural education Homely Planet will also support the grassroots roots music sector in Northern Ireland and will develop links globally to become a catalyst for the world music industry and global cultural relations
Homely Planet is managed by the Beyond Skin, a charity addressing racism and sectarianism in Northern Ireland through multicultural artforms. Primary partnership groups for Homely Planet are the Equality Commission Northern Ireland, Sinful Design, Arts & Business, Beat N track and OFMDFM
Homely Planet will be broadcasting 24/7 and information about the service and how people can get involved is available from the official website www.homelyplanet.org
The idea originated after the ‘Homely Planet’ festival 2006 from musicians involved. The idea of using radio for cultural exchange through music, verbal arts and dialogue has become a shared vision.

Weekend greetings to you my friend - I'm working on a
collection of songs at present with Liz Clarke from Belfast which my
turn into a album released through itunes etc - These are gospel
inspired and feature your truly in a production role.
Have a listen to couple of tunes when you get a few minutes - I would love some honest feedback on things to improve etc.

Clubsamwich Introduces... MORE THAN CONQUERORS, With clarity and huge foresight, these four gather, to write music that not only captures a sense of honesty but a grasp of triumph and defeat. Trying to find out how far they can reach and what stories they can tell, a mix of melody and impactive beats, come together to create the climactic sound of MORE THAN CONQUERORS.
You can check out the guys on their myspace, where they have two new tracks uploaded from their forthcoming E.P.
