Hi!
I'm from Germany and there are some others on here...
It seems, that there are more and more soul events over here every year. The number of allnighters/weekenders is still growing as far as I can see.
The longest running weekender is in Nuremberg, I think since 1989 under different promotions. It's also the busiest one, there are around 700 people at the K4 on the second weekend of december for years now.
The longest running soul night / allnighter, as far as I know, is the Hip City Soul Club in Berlin run by Franz Heidl and Marc Forrest (both on this forum). Always top quality soul records spun there with an upfront attitude.
Nearly every bigger city has it's soul night / all nighter / weekender: Munich, Nuremberg, Bamberg Frankfurt, Dresden, Leipzig, Mainz, Cologne, Hamburg, Berlin, Bremen to name just a few.
There have been lots of british DJs over here for example:
Butch, Soul Sam, Andy Dyson, Mick H, James Trouble, Dave Thorley, Dave Rimmer, John Weston, John Mills, Chris Anderton....
But also some top DJs from other European countrys.
