About The Event

Hi Folks

Friday 20th  April 2018 sees the next event at the Ukrainian Club in Ashton-Under-Lyne. 

If you fancy hearing great records along with something a little bit different, and if you want a ‘soul’ night (as opposed to just a ‘social’ night with the music policy that tends to accompany such events) then the Ukrainian Club could be the venue for you.

Staying true to Brian Lester and Chris Churm’s original goals, the focus is on rarer and underplayed records.  For a flavour of how this policy plays-out (pun intended) you can check out some of the playlists that have posted on Soul Source.  You’ll undoubtedly know a lot of the records that are played, but we’re really hoping that there will be a number of tracks on any given evening that will be new to you and that you’ll love. 

The aims are simple:

1)    Play you an evening of great soul records

2)    Select these records with the emphasis on quality

3)    Play original vinyl only

4)    Bring you quality guest DJs

We hope that the aforementioned aims will combine to give you a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

The venue itself seems ideally suited to host a rarer event.  It has a nicely-sized room with great dancefloor and a separate chill-out/lounge area.  The combination of venue, music policy and of two hand-picked guests per event seems to be proving popular.

I’ve not had the guest DJs confirmed as yet for this, but Brian, Chris or I will post the names as soon as possible.

The address is 

The Ukrainian Club (Association of Ukrainians)

215 Stockport Road

Aston-Under-Lyne

OL7 0NP

The venue is just across the road from the Shell petrol station and whilst the car park is only small there's plenty of parking on the residential streets behind the venue.

Doors open at 7:30pm and entrance is a quite reasonable (we think) £3.00.

The event finishes at midnight.

Be there, be rare...or be square!

Hi Folks,

DJ times now confirmed and as follows:

7:30 - 8:00 Phil Dunne - a great warm up set is guaranteed from Phil...try to get there early so you don't miss out!

8:00 - 9:00 Phil Etchells - with a great, great collection Phil will have you reaching for your dancing shoes and the notebook where you list your 'wants'

9:00 - 10:00 Chris Penn - winging it as usual...despite his attempts to organise his play box during the whole week prior to the event

10:00 - 11:00 Carole McCarthy - expect a sublime set from Carole, a top collector who'll almost certainly play a selection of tracks to get you thinking (thinking about where you might get a copy) and your feet moving (to my shame I have not heard Carole DJ for yonks and I'm really looking forward to hearing her set).

Bugger...managed to hit 'submit' before finishing the post d'oh!

11:00 - 0:00 Chris Churm - I'm running out of superlatives for Chris...just prepare to be blown away as Chris is one of the most prepared DJs I've ever met.  He'll have been vetting and selecting records for your listening and dancing pleasure since the last event and as a consequence he'll give you a guaranteed quality set that'll include tracks you know and a few you won't with a blend of 60s, 70s and crossover tunes for your listening and dancing pleasure.

Hope to see you there.

Chris Penn
