Ive been to 3/4 soul nites recently & really enjoyed the variations of soul music played, to a very diverse & younger growd.

I'd like to dj dressed as Genghis Khan link That's a departure from the pink, dog emblazoned T-shirts and doodle-boppers we were gonna sport last year at Cleethorpes. You're losing your edge, Sunshine. Very much looking forward to S.O.N. although I ain't getting there till late. Reckon I'll have no records left by the time I arrive!! I once saw Richard DJ as a Gherkin. I had to stop him on the way in to confiscate his bayonet. Poor dyslexic child that he is.
Soulof Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Can you recommend anybody in Copenghagen, Denmark? * IMO there are better ones if you cross the bridge over to Malmoe . The sexiest ones are situated in Gothenburg though
Guest James Trouble Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 New Century are doing a "Young Guns" room Boxing Day in Manchester I think. Now while I am against booking DJs because they are girls, young, OAP, black, white, jappy, transvestite or whatever and DJs should be booked because they are good and not because they are from a minority group. I do think that this night will be a damn good laugh and I'm looking forward to it and if you're interested in the sounds of the yoof, that'll be the place to check it out.
Guest ShaneH Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Up and Coming? Oooh Suits You! link is this like 'grooming'? Shane

Mark Bicknell Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 If you have the records and yes a wee bit of talent and know how to string a set together then age has sod all to do with it! Breaking into DJ'ing on the scene today is far easier and more open house than it used to be, it was almost a closed shop way back which was bullshit but it happened, believe in your records, believe in yourself and the rest is easy.....well almost. regards - Mark Bicknell.

But I'm not quite as troublesome as I was in my younger years and I think it'll be a good laugh with some great music played, so what the hell, it'll be fun. And if it makes the old folk feel good that they are supporting the 'yoof' while we are secretly taking over 'their scene', slowly eradicating all their tired old washed out oldies and replacing them with our fresh and funky new sounds, than it's a good thing.

I empathis with Stevie, about it being a bit patronising if you think about it too much.

Winsford Soul Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Would love to know who the next generation of Soul d.j's are, 20/30 year olds perhaps??

Guest James Trouble Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 (edited) I agree they are the future and should be encouraged but they have to be able to do the business  Just cause they are under 30 shouldn't automatically give anyone the right to dj Anyway isn't this being ageist or whatever they call it  link Agree with you there Chalky. Although I don't think the way it's going to be presented is ageist though. Pinch of salt and sense of humour and all that. Having a think about the theme, I could have a guess as to who the "Old Timers" room will be made up of, "The Young Guns" are all pretty much present and correct. "Cow Girls" room should be easy enough (if there was one). But I wonder who would be the DJs in a "Varmants and Rustlers" room?!?!?! Edited September 1, 2005 by James Trouble

Chalky Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Did'nt mean to sound ageist, no offence to older d.j's..............just curious as to who the next generation of soul d.j's are link I was only being mischievious Any DJ worth his or her salt will come through eventually. I only hope that up coming DJ's look at the quality and not the value
