About The Event

The Ashton Ukrainian club has gone from strength to strength following the re-launch in 2021 and a move to Saturday night. For 2024 we're looking to continue delivery quality rare and underplayed soul from the residents and ever growing list of outstanding guests.

Speaking of ‘Rare & Underplayed Soul’ we use that phrase to capture what Ashton tries to deliver musically, which is worth expanding upon.

Mainly it's an attempt to move away from the standard music policy strap lines we’re all so used to seeing like; Northern, 60s & 70s, Crossover, Modern, across the board etc. etc. whilst genuinely trying to capture an ethos. The words ‘rare’ and ‘underplayed’ are intended to apply both in their own right and together, it certainly isn't supposed to be limited rare records that are also underplayed……we should have added quality in there too LOL.

In a nutshell you will hear all three combinations of the phrase on any given night at the Ukrainian Club; ‘Rare’ (but not for rarities sake) ‘Underplayed’ (but not because they’re not good enough) and of course ‘Rare & Underplayed’ but, all with one eye on the dancefloor.

We don’t have a music ‘policy’, all our residents & guests are free to express themselves as they wish, which we believe adds to the magic. So simply expect a great night of quality soul music if you ever get the chance to join us at our friendly little club.

A bit of a Whirlwind last night, in the words of Tim Ashibende a real diverse mix of music. All kicked off by Phil Dunn as always a varied and interesting mix. Debutant DJ Gamekeeper Jones followed quality soul from the early 60s "toast to the lady" sounded great all over again and the brilliant Paul Sindab "I was a fool" the stand out tracks for me.

We had a two hour double deck session from birthday boy John Weston and Les Norman Barbara Hall "big man" not a bad start to the proceedings Clarence Hill "a lot of loving going round" and many more right across the spectrum of rare soul!!

Cometh the hour cometh the man Tim Ashibende absolutely smashed it, kicking with a few classic detroit bangers "Down in the Dumps" and just class rare soul like Virginia Blakely "let nobody love you" sounded the business, loud and proud!!

Lord Ashton Chris Churm did his customary last hour, well half hour last night!!

We are just collating the figures from the ticket sales for our May Special Event, when we welcome Numero Uno Rare Soul DJ bUTCH

You know it's gonna be good, we'll advise on here and soul-source any availability for tickets!!

Peace
