  2. Deptford Northern Soul Club - 08/06/24- Manchester A hidden pocket of joy in Manchester's Yes club written by Jodie Edwards This incredible Northern soul night is as unique and vibrant as the people who attend. The atmosphere at a Deptford northern soul night is unpalpable. Everyone who comes is here to have a great time and dance the night away, with feelgood soul music on spin and friendly faces on the dance floor. The YES Club YES is one of Manchester's newest and unique music venues. It is only a quick 5-minute walk from Oxford Road and is becoming a popular addition to the vibrant nightlife of Manchester. YES opened in 2018, by the independent company behind venues such as The Deaf Institute and Gorilla. The venue is home to four different floors. With a rooftop bar and even a basement venue. This helps cater for many unique styles without taking anything away from the personality of the building. The Night (no pun intended) Besides intensely dancing away, the atmosphere of the northern soul night is so welcoming and never unfriendly. People are respectful and inclusivity is all that matters. This strong sense of community is something that can be felt as soon as you step through the doors. Strangers becoming friends as you bond over your shared love of the music. The music played is another reason as to why this northern soul night brings so much happiness to people. These soulful melodies and fast-beating rhythms can lift spirits and leave an impressionable smile on your face. The energy here is so contagious alongside the passion that the DJs bring. What makes Deptford northern soul club so special? Deptford northern soul club is well known across the soul scene for its unique venues and just plain authenticity. Despite the crowd being much younger, the passion is still as strong. They have previously played sets at festivals such as Glastonbury and Green man, as well as being due to play at Kendal calling this summer. These soul nights have an incredibly open audience that welcomes new listeners and even people of all ages. Who all come to have a great night. One of the best parts of the night is the focus on vinyl only music. Dancing the night away to your favourite song spinning on the decks is something to make you truly feel alive. The nostalgia that comes with the crackling vinyl is what makes it truly so special. It only adds to the ambience of this incredible evening. The incredible DJs If Deptford's fantastic duo of Will Foot and Lewis Henderson was not enough for the night, they were joined by Manchester's own Northern grooves. We were treated to tracks by Stormy, Thee sacred souls and even The Salvador's. The idea that there is a mix of contemporary, crossover and especially classic soul records really reflects the audience of today's northern soul nights. The contrast of the newer generation dancing to older music is what is so captivating. The people who attend these nights are a diverse yet extremely enthusiastic crowd. Who all come from different walks of life but are united by a love for Northern Soul Music. Overall, this night is an incredible experience for anyone who appreciates good music and bouncing dance floors. The amazing dancing and positive atmosphere are what makes these nights so memorable. We left that night with sore feet but a full heart!

  4. Keele Soul All-Nighter Located on the famous Keele university campus, this has been named one of the best all-nighters around. With an amazing line up and the finest sound system around. You are sure to leave this night with sore feet but an ear-to-ear smile. Keele university's campus, rich in architectural phenomena and detail, provides an incredible setting for an all-nighter. The rich history of the buildings on campus and surroundings can provoke a sense of nostalgia, which intertwines ever so perfectly with northern soul. The modern-day attendees doubled with the older campus can create a unique and compelling experience. Highlighting, just how Keele University campus makes such a perfect place for a soul all-nighter. The night itself The northern soul music scene is alive and has still been thriving for decades, captivating fans over infectious music and fast beats sure to get you on to the dance floor. One key night in the soul calendar is the Keele soul all-nighter, that only happens three times a year. Making it ever so special. Where hardcore fans come to dance away into the early hours with the best seven-inch vinyl on spin. We recently had the pleasure of attending the most recent Keele soul all-nighter . I must say it was an unforgettable experience. The night was held in an incredible building with a bouncing floor perfect for dancing. The friendly people and inviting atmosphere only to add to the incredible night of great music and dancing. No song was repeated and no tune was worth leaving the dancefloor The main hall featured a mix of classic northern soul anthems and underground soul tracks. Each one carefully selected by the well-practiced DJs. Amongst the night you will hear from the best DJs such as Ted Massey, Rob smith and room at the top’s famous Jordan Wilson. These are just a few of the names of many talented sets over the course of the all-nighter. The dance floor was an incredible place. Dancing amongst people of all ages and backgrounds. After all, the music here is what we all have in common. Coming together to celebrate the timeless genre of music. Room two Just down the hallway, a second room awaited, precisely dedicated to many genres of modern soul such as funk, Latin boogaloo and even eighties hip hop. The music played in this second room provides a fresh and youthful twist to the night. Mixing contemporary with classics to keep the party truly going all night. The fact there are two different rooms to choose from throughout the night, adds a certain element of variety. Catering to all music tastes in a fascinating way. What makes this night so special? What sets this all-nighter aside from the rest is the dedication to obscure and underplayed tracks. These lesser known b sides and underground soul tracks may not receive too much mainstream recognition ,so when these hidden gems are played it can give life to this wonderful music. These tracks are often uncovered through dedicated crate-digging and research. All in the name of soul and sharing this music with the audience on a deeper level. https://jodiee526.substack.com/p/keele-soul-all-nighter
