Even the all time northern classics are "new" to an 18 year old just discovering soul music or who is frustrated by what is offered to them by the popular mainstream ... a weekly allnighter could very easily sustain itself with an artful mix of all time classics, RnB , modern (70s) , latin, funky tunes, contemporary releases and the few new discoveries that are still turning up. It would need skilful DJs with record collections that can cover all the above bases and who have a completely open minded approach to the broad church that is rare soul music .
The target crowd for such a weekly event wouldn't be the "elders" on the scene who have already made up their minds either that the scene has nothing new to offer or still wouldn't go to a weekly event if a tsunami of new music was still being discovered. One suspects Ady is thinking this way by the very fact that he is bringing in other trusted people to offer a fresh perspective.
