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 2025 we're looking once again 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.

You’re like the Paul Daniel’s of soul Mike 👌

There's already Si "The Fixer", Chris "The Finisher" are we saying Mick "The Magician" Howard now, I like that, but not a lot.😋

I should have had that nickname, whenever I DJ'd I could make everyone disappear off the dancefloor. Just like that.😝

Stu that wouldn't work, Jessie Pinkman's a character off Breaking Bad. 👍

Maybe Bob Up'N Down might work or Bobbing a long.

Another that needs more exposure, one from The Stafford Era, with a Funky/Gospel feel, but Ultra Soulful, on an Iconic West Coast Label !!

Nice one Stu, I like it, that's some of your best work however Simon named Mick "Mighty Mike" at the last minute,, "Magic Mike" the magician would have been better IMHO.👌

Stu are you still playing the wonderful King Earnest twofer. This side always does it for me, but either side is fantastic.👏

Dipping into BazM's playbox and an evergreen from The Windy C. From an Iconic Group, with the prolific production skills of Johnny Pate AND a record that always reminds me of Sir Bob. What's the record Mick???? WHOOOOOSH!!!
