Would love to know who the next generation of Soul d.j's are, 20/30 year olds perhaps??

Who are the up & coming soul d.j's, they must be out there somewhere in the world (not in Seattle I hasten to add)

Personally I think that any soul d.j's under 30 should get recognition at the more popular soul weekenders, they are the future are they not

It has crossed my mind - Myself and Matt Bolton have always toyed with the idea of djing in some sort of comedy outfit .... maybe on the 10th @ S.O.N.

I'd like to dj dressed as Genghis Khan

Ive heard both James Trouble & Matt Bolton & the future is in very good hands, its the same old story ................. give the younger dj`s a chance & a platform to play there stuff & THEY wont let you down.

Ive been to 3/4 soul nites recently & really enjoyed the variations of soul music played, to a very diverse & younger growd.

Up and Coming?

Oooh Suits You!

That's a departure from the pink, dog emblazoned T-shirts and doodle-boppers we were gonna sport last year at Cleethorpes. You're losing your edge, Sunshine. Very much looking forward to S.O.N. although I ain't getting there till late. Reckon I'll have no records left by the time I arrive!!

I once saw Richard DJ as a Gherkin. I had to stop him on the way in to confiscate his bayonet. Poor dyslexic child that he is.

Can you recommend anybody in Copenghagen, Denmark?

* IMO there are better ones if you cross the bridge over to Malmoe .

The sexiest ones are situated in Gothenburg though

New Century are doing a "Young Guns" room Boxing Day in Manchester I think.

Now while I am against booking DJs because they are girls, young, OAP, black, white, jappy, transvestite or whatever and DJs should be booked because they are good and not because they are from a minority group. I do think that this night will be a damn good laugh and I'm looking forward to it and if you're interested in the sounds of the yoof, that'll be the place to check it out.

is this like 'grooming'?

Shane

im potentially the best oldies dj in the country!!

people just havent realised it yet!!

waiting for all the oldies to retire to get a chance of world domination

If you have the records and yes a wee bit of talent and know how to string a set together then age has sod all to do with it! Breaking into DJ'ing on the scene today is far easier and more open house than it used to be, it was almost a closed shop way back which was bullshit but it happened, believe in your records, believe in yourself and the rest is easy.....well almost.

To be honest with you Stevie, I did grimice at first. It's a bit patronising. But I'm not quite as troublesome as I was in my younger years and I think it'll be a good laugh with some great music played, so what the hell, it'll be fun. And if it makes the old folk feel good that they are supporting the 'yoof' while we are secretly taking over 'their scene', slowly eradicating all their tired old washed out oldies and replacing them with our fresh and funky new sounds, than it's a good thing. Bless 'em.

Ken, I see where Stevie is coming from, my first thought was it was a bit like the girl DJ thing, which I wa against, kind of, apart from really enjoying it every time, so it doesn't seem right to be against it, as every time I enjoy it. I think sometimes there is too much thinking about soul and not enough having a laugh adn enjoying it, believe me, I'm the worst for thinking too much about music.

I empathis with Stevie, about it being a bit patronising if you think about it too much. But I think Chris is just looking to put on a good night at christmas which should be a bit of a laugh with some good music played, so I don't think it's worth stressing about.

Now stop trying to stir up trouble, you bad boy! Oh, and where was you r letter on my desk explaining your absence on Sunday night!

Got to mention the irish lads, all young, musically aware, who can put a few of us who have been around for a long time to shame with there knowledge of the music and this scene which when you consider there age its scary. but there is a future with talent like this around.

I agree they are the future and should be encouraged but they have to be able to do the business Just cause they are under 30 shouldn't automatically give anyone the right to dj

Anyway isn't this being ageist or whatever they call it

True, just as being over 45 and able to blather into the mic about Wigan shouldn't give anyone that right either..... but sometimes you wonder don't you?

Agree with you there Chalky. Although I don't think the way it's going to be presented is ageist though. Pinch of salt and sense of humour and all that.

Having a think about the theme, I could have a guess as to who the "Old Timers" room will be made up of, "The Young Guns" are all pretty much present and correct. "Cow Girls" room should be easy enough (if there was one). But I wonder who would be the DJs in a "Varmants and Rustlers" room?!?!?!

I was only being mischievious

Any DJ worth his or her salt will come through eventually. I only hope that up coming DJ's look at the quality and not the value

Just cause they are under 30 shouldn't automatically give anyone the right to dj 

Anyway isn't this being ageist or whatever they call it

Totally agree with you Chalky, or any one over 30 for that matter........have herd plenty of 'DJ's' who cant string a spot together for example playing a 70's tune inbetween two R&B records or visa versa

For my two penneth worth i would think in the right enviroment, us yung uns would try to be a little more experimental
