Golden Éire Records: The Epicenter of Ireland’s Hip-Hop Revolution

In the verdant landscape of Irish music, Golden Éire Records stands as a beacon of innovation and a champion for local talent. Established in 2022 by lauded music producer Odd Numbers (born Odhrán O’Brien), the label marks a new era for Hip-Hop and R&B in Ireland. Armed with a mission to discover, nurture, and elevate national talent, Golden Éire Records is more than a label—it's a movement.

​

A Nurturer of Emerging Talent
From the moment of its inception, Golden Éire Records has been relentless in its pursuit to give emerging Irish artists a stage to shine. O’Brien’s own experience as a self-releasing artist provides him with unique insights into the challenges and opportunities that newcomers face. This empathy fueled the creation of 'The Independent Artist’s Workshop,' a three-week masterclass hosted in Cavan during the summer of 2023. The workshop served as a deep-dive into career-building strategies for aspiring musicians, establishing the label not just as a promoter of music, but also as an educational cornerstone in the Irish music landscape.

​

A Blueprint for Growth
Golden Éire Records distinguishes itself through a well-defined growth strategy that serves as its backbone. Encompassing four complementary pillars—Collaborative Compilation Albums, Premium and Sustainable Merch Collaborations, Diverse and Engaging Live Events, and Aesthetic Video Content—the label aspires to become Ireland’s definitive hub for Hip-Hop and R&B.

​

Accolades and Acclaim
The label has not gone unnoticed by industry critics and insiders. Darian Burns of Dope Hip-Hop lauded, "What Odd Numbers is doing within Ireland’s Hip-Hop scene and the country as a whole is something that can only be championed." Matt Miles of Yack Magazine praised the label as "the sparkling green jewel in the crown of the indie and alternative hip-hop scene."

​

A Future-Forward Ethos
At its core, Golden Éire Records prides itself on its uncompromising ethos, rooted deeply in inclusivity, diversity, and authenticity. The label’s mission statement articulates a vision for a “golden era” in Irish music—an era marked by unprecedented creativity and self-expression. It aims to build an authentic brand that not only earns trust but also commands loyalty. For Odhrán O'Brien and his team, Golden Éire Records isn’t merely a label but a redefinition of what the Irish music industry can be.
