Tsu Tomatoes Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Are there any DJ's in the UK that play a large selection of Southern in their sets or does anyone know of any UK based radio shows that play this genre? TIA
Guest Goldwax Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Are there any DJ's in the UK that play a large selection of Southern in their sets or does anyone know of any UK based radio shows that play this genre? TIA Paul Weller played Eddie Giles - Losing Boy at Madam Jo Jo's a couple of weeks ago. I doubt if any Northern DJ would play a majority Southern set but would be nice to hear more or at least a regular radio show.
FrankM Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Frser Dunn plays quite a bit of southern soul in his shows on subcity go to Soulful Allsorts and enter Fraser Dunn into the SEARCH facility That should bring a list of shows and their playlists. if you see one you like click on the link to the show at the bottom of the play list Here's a random pick Soulful Allsorts with Fraser Dunn
Simon M Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 I think most Modern Oldies Dj's play a bit of southern !
Sean Hampsey Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Always features large in my sets, Neil. It's where it all began for me so I'm always buying (and promoting) Southern stuff. Recent sets of mine at Yarmouth and elsewhere include tracks from Donnie Ray, Monique Ford, Vick Allen, Toni Green, Chuck Roberson, Quinn Golden, Sir Charles Jones, Terry Kimble and many more. Artists that just don't get an airing in the mainstream 'UK' Soul circles. I mentioned (quite vigourously) on EMS recently (Ivor Goodear) about the fact that most 'Modern' DJ's avoid it like the plague. Its sad really as I still believe its the real deal... you've just got to hunt harder to find the good stuff these days. I'd love to do a full set of Southern Grits, and am sure to drop a few this Sunday at Burton "Without Boundaries"... although, as I'm doing the last hour, I'll probably find a burning cross outside when I get home. 'Kin Rednecks get everywhere! Sean THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN!
Guest Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Nice 1 Shaun but hopefully WITHOUT the slavery m8 this time

Baz Atkinson Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 THINK MOST THROW ONE OR TWO IN,THE BARONS -ON SHAGG USED TO GET A SPIN FROM ME ETC,ALOT OF MY DEEP COLECTION IS SOUTHERN. BAZ A
Sean Hampsey Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Well if ever you are playing in London please PM me. Real soul is Southern ! I might have guessed, with a name like Goldwax, that we'd be of the same mind. Rarely get to DJ in London but I was on at Monumental recently and would certainly be up for more bookings down South. In the immediate future it would certainly be worth the trip Northwards for you (or anyone else into real Soul) this Sunday to "Without Boundaries" at Burton. I would have though that all the DJ's there would be programming a fair share of Southern Grits! Sean
Steve G Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Always manage to drop a few in at any moddun gigs
Guest hammy Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 THINK MOST THROW ONE OR TWO IN,THE BARONS -ON SHAGG USED TO GET A SPIN FROM ME ETC,ALOT OF MY DEEP COLECTION IS SOUTHERN. BAZ A "As Sure as You're Born " ??? - nice. I used to play that out as well. Hammy
Guest lotusland Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Always manage to drop a few in at any moddun gigs maybe I don't understand what you Brits call 'Southern Soul', but if you mean soul records from the South isn't there thousands that get played, even some that are very trendy right now? Guitar Ray on SHAGG, Percy Stone 'Chained', anything by Eula Cooper, the Blues Brothers #1, Charles Mr CC Carlson, etc etc etc..

Guitar Ray on SHAGG, Percy Stone 'Chained', anything by Eula Cooper, the Blues Brothers #1, Charles Mr CC Carlson, etc etc etc.. Sure, they are all Southern soul... but don't tell anyone will ya'. They prefer to call even 'Southern' records Northern Soul over here. To be fair, I think the original poster, Neil, was referring to Contemporary Southern Soul as per the artists I referred to earlier in the thread (but I may be mistaken). Sean

Sean Hampsey Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Black flags all round ! Very good Steve... except that they tend to be rectangular!
