He’s also a big Leicester City fan too!! You really are in for a musical treat !!! Here’s a few words from the man himself and his his current top five plays PETE SUMNER DJ Blog Although I’ve been collecting soul music for 40+ years and travelling to soul events across the UK and Europe for many years, I didn’t really start to DJ at events until the last 10 years. My collection contains records from the 60’s onwards and of many different genres and my DJ sets can be equally across the board. I jointly promote Ashby Connoisseur’s Soul Club in the East Midlands, where I’ve lived for most of my life, but really enjoy travelling to events far afield and listening to sets from many different DJ’s. I’m not sure which direction my sets will go at LDSM but will have the following tunes in my playbox on the day: Dolly Gilmore – Sweet, sweet, baby The Grey Imprint – Do you get the message. Billy Byrd – Silly kind of love. French Coffey – Nothing from nothing. Buddy Smith – When you lose the one you love.

With only two weeks to go until our next LDSM party at our super cool venue The Goods In It’s now time to start introducing the guest DJs starting with Allan Dey. Allen is a very good friend of mine and someone who I respect greatly. A very unassuming man who would do anything for anybody. He’s at the forefront of new releases and always listening and looking out for something different. So expect dance driven tunes all played on glorious vinyl Here are a few words from the man himself and his current top five plays I got into soul music in the 80s ,only really started collecting records early 90s.I'm into modern ,and soulful house.I am a Co Resident at Love Soul Disco in Aberdeen with my friend Keith Fowler where we play anything from northern soul ,disco and soulful house .

With only 3 weeks to go until the next LDSM event at The Goods In its time to get the lowdown on the guest DJs. Sare is making the long trip to join us and packing some amazing records. A woman with impeccable taste in music and has always got a smile on her face. We can’t wait and I’m sure you can’t either to listen to her selections. Sare Atkinson-Dj Blog I love the expression that soul music has the ability to make you feel nothing or everything. It certainly does this for me, with lyrics ripping at my heart for a moment or just getting lost in the pleasure of sound where nothing even matters. Anyway.. you get my drift. It’s an honour to be asked to dj and it’s always an absolute joy to share my personal selections with likeminded people. My favourite plays either change like our weather or get stuck on repeat. This week they’re going something like this: 1 Bobby Story - Let's do Something Different 2 Reid Inc. - What Am I Gonna Do 3 William Barlak - Aint No Doubt About It 4 The Ovations Til I Find Some Way 5 Skip Mahoney & The Casuals - Town Called No-Where 6 The New York Community Choir - Help 7 Milton Davies - Summertime in the Sunshine 8 Hiroshima - Never ever 9 The Fantastics - Somewhere ...Finally 10 Boz Scaggs - Lowdown
