Cork based music website drop-d.ie have put together a 69 track compilation of music from their native city. Best of all, they're giving it away entirely for free, including all artwork, bios on each of the bands and four full videos.

Not being from Cork myself, I have to admit these are mostly unknown names, but inclusions like Hooray for Humans, Ian Whitty and the Exchange, My Evil Ex and Ladydoll are certainly worth a listen.
