Soul Source 25 years... magazine cover

Another day, another first of the month...

August 2022

25 years ago, the summer of 1997, the Soul Source website was first published on the internet

As always the plan around this time of year is to mark this anniversary occasion with some sort of event/post/happening

But as always with this plan, the event kind of sneaks up on us and as just not enough hours in the day the plans never really come together.

However, as this time it's a bit of major landmark, a few things will occur that will reflect/mark this 25 year landmark

Anyway for now as it's the first of the month, just a quick initial note to mark this event, and pass on thanks to all who have helped us reach this landmark over the years.

More later

Thank you and well done Mike. Made a lot of good friends on site in the late 90s / early 2000s who I used to see a a lot at the London events and beyond. Quite a few classic threads and reviews over the years and it's great to see it still going strong. If you want a question answered, this is the place to come!

Well done Mike. A remarkable achievement considering the amount of nutcases out there. It says a lot about your commitment and ability to deal with difficult moments.

Great achievement Mike, well done.The site's truly been part of the fabric for a long time now and serves the whole community well, regardless of which part of the soul scene people occupy and shout at each other from. It's so easy for people to take platforms like this for granted when they've been around forever, and I appreciate the hard work gone into creating - and maintaining - what it is.
