Ach tháinig athrú nuálach ar pholasaí RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta i 2005 agus tá cead anois liricí Béarla a chasadh ar ANOCHT fm (9pm - 1am).Cor coise ab ea an cosc seo ar liricí Béarla san am a caitheadh, dar le Cian Ó Cíobháin, láithreoir an chláir, ach is minic laincisí níos troime ar DJs dar leis, agus formhór na liostaí ceoil a chastar ar stáisiúin náisiúnta raidió na tíre á socrú ag maorlathas thionscail an cheoil.Níl an laincis seo ar An Taobh Tuathail, áfach, agus tá saoirse iomlán ag Cian a rogha féin de scothcheol comhaimseartha na cruinne a chasadh.Is é aidhm ATT ceol nua a aimsiú agus a chasadh dá lucht éisteachta; ceol, níos minicí ná a mhalairt, nach gcloistear in aon áit eile.AN TAOBH TUATHAIL (in English)An Taobh Tuathail has been broadcasting the cream of underground music from around the globe on RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta/ANOCHT FM since May 1999.Cian Ó Cíobháin who has been presenting the show since its very first broadcast, presents the show Monday to Friday,, 11pm-1am.Cian spins a broad range of mostly underground music on the show. The shows from earlier in the the week are more reflective in mood - drawing on electronica, dream-pop, alt-folk, post-rock, soundtracks and jazz.Thursdays and Fridays are devoted to electronic dancefloor music: predominantly house, electro & techno, which Cian plays at clubs around Ireland (http://www.sisi.tv).On Wednesday, you could say ‘file under: other’, though usually theres’s space for Balearic gems, nu-disco, dubstep and electro-pop on the midweek show.ATT BACKGROUNDAn Taobh Tuathail commenced broadcasting on RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta on May 1st 1999. For their first six years on air, RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta's policy of not playing English language lyrics did not deter ATT presenters from seeking out exciting new music which - were it not for the show - might not have been played on national radio.While this ban was a hindrance in Ó Cíobháin's view, greater obstacles than this are imposed on radio jocks. For example, nearly every playlist on Irish national radio is determined by music hierarchies, designed by radio stations to create hits (which influences the Top 30). This, thankfully, has never applied to An Taobh Tuathail. The programme has always had the freedom to play music it is passionate about.RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta's policy on English lyrics was relaxed in May 2005 with the launch of ANOCHT FM, a dedicated service for younger listeners which broadcasts seven days a week from 9pm -1am, and now incorporates An Taobh Tuathail.This has given the programme the leeway to play absolutely any sound in the history of recorded music and has made the show even stronger as all music can now be considered for broadcast.An Taobh Tuathail broadcasts Monday-Friday, 11pm-1am, on ANOCHT fmWhatever the vibe of a particular show, the aim is simple: to play you exciting new music that you may not have the opportunity to hear elsewhere.http://www.rte.ie/rnag/antaobhtuathail.htmlAn Taobh Tuathail podcast for Shock, available here[FEEDBURNER] http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheShockPodcast
