About The Event

The Ashton Ukrainian club has gone from strength to strength following the re-launch in 2021 and a move to Saturday night. For 2025 we're looking once again to continue delivery quality rare and underplayed soul from the residents and ever growing list of outstanding guests.

Speaking of ‘Rare & Underplayed Soul’ we use that phrase to capture what Ashton tries to deliver musically, which is worth expanding upon.

Mainly it's an attempt to move away from the standard music policy strap lines we’re all so used to seeing like; Northern, 60s & 70s, Crossover, Modern, across the board etc. etc. whilst genuinely trying to capture an ethos. The words ‘rare’ and ‘underplayed’ are intended to apply both in their own right and together, it certainly isn't supposed to be limited rare records that are also underplayed……we should have added quality in there too LOL.

In a nutshell you will hear all three combinations of the phrase on any given night at the Ukrainian Club; ‘Rare’ (but not for rarities sake) ‘Underplayed’ (but not because they’re not good enough) and of course ‘Rare & Underplayed’ but, all with one eye on the dancefloor.

We don’t have a music ‘policy’, all our residents & guests are free to express themselves as they wish, which we believe adds to the magic. So simply expect a great night of quality soul music if you ever get the chance to join us at our friendly little club.

Well we saw out 2024 at Ashton in fine style!! So many highlights to reflect on, that said, we are now planning 2025. January starts with a Nordic Flavour!!

Stockholm meets Stockport, we look forward to Sweden's finest Soul Export Carl Hedberg debut spot behind the decks, some amazing selections to look forward to. First up an amazing double sider that always reminds me of the Lifeline Niters!!

As the dust settles on our end of year finale event at Ashton Ukrainian Club, early shout for our first event of 2025.

We have a Nordic Flavour to our first date. Saturday January 18th with Sweden's finest Soul Export, Carl Hedberg making his DJ debut. Check out the link at the bottom of the thread for some sample spins from the Maestro!!

A bit nearer home Team Ukrainian "Fixer" Simon Ingham is back behind the decks. So it's a case of "Stockholm meets Stockport, some quality Rare Soul coming at you.

Karl White AKA Chalky will be digging through his treasure trove of Rare Soul Albums to provide some choice cuts in glorious stereo for the dancefloor!!

We have another Debutant DJ Robert Hitchcock An Ashton regular and well known face on the scene from the halcyon days. Bob can be found in the record bars, plying his trade wheeling and dealing in Rare Soul 45s.

Phil Dunn will be kick starting a New Year at The Club for us, believe me we have some Amazing Guest DJs lined up(watch this space)

Chris Churm will be hoping his trusty play box stays "In Situ" for the end of the night, with the usual classy mix to send everybody home singing and dancing!!

The night runs 7pm-00.30 and still only £5 pay on the door, wishing all The Ashton Faithful a Happy Christmas and we'll see you in January!!
