As I'm across the pond interested to know what are the big 'new' toons right now in the UK Allnighters, top 5's would be good. Not your tunes, just favourites from the Nighters.

Thank you in advance

most played at the mo must be nicole willis if this aint love and dj genesis tribute to betty wright on the modern side and jelly beans you dont mean me no good on the oldies

the scene must be in a sorry state when a Finnish funk record and a house record are the best the scene can come up with right now. 100's of records out there that aren't played that should be played before records like these should grace the decks IMO

100% correct. Mind, I don't even know what the first two are. Maybe I go to the wrong clubs?

Why was it DJ Genisis that went big anyway Just because Soul Sam is playing it, there is loads of soulful house much better than Genisis bet if some one else played one they would be froned upon, just goes to show what a 'name' can do for a record.

So it's soulful house now and no longer disco whether you like Sam or not, at least he has the balls to play newer and lesser known stuff unlike many of the flock . I don't particularly like the said record but there are many, on the northern and modern scenes who don't frown upon the record, you can't argue with a full floor...so called name or not!

Soulful house comes under Disco, its Disco for the 21st century

It was no way a attack at Sam what so ever, but i was just saying if some one else played the record it might just have been a passing 'mistake' by a maverick DJ. was more trying to point out about crowds thinking if he's playing it it must be good ect, ect.

Are we talking 'modern' tracks that are played in northern rooms here? Just curious.

No, thats a different thread.

I know Russ, I was specifically asking about the two "biggest modern soul tracks", neither of which I like or own - one of which is just a crap blag of a Betty Wright song with a beat and the other is new music trying to sound old, which I dislike even more than sixties music, so I guess that doesn't make me much of a modern soul DJ!!

CDs winging their way across the Atlantic mate, posted them today.

Seem to remember Sam playing Sam Cooke's Chain Gang at Brighouse a few years ago. Some looked astonished, some shook their heads but most thought what a refreshing change and it packed the floor!!

Haha

Don`t know if this answers your question as they`re both cover/ups.Both played by Butch,his Masqueraders c/u and his Jean Carter c/u.I heard them for the first time about a month ago and there were plenty of people on the dancefloor so they must be up there.

Well Andy, i think Butch's Masqueraders c/u is just about the best thing i've heard in years!

It's absolutely AWESOME!

Hope you're well by the way

Hi there lass,great minds think alike just exactly what I thought at the time.He played that many good tunes that it got a bit confusing,but those two really stuck in my head.Did you have a listen to that Major Lance track that a kind soul sourcer put up on the site for me.Would have thought it was your type of thing,I love it to bits.

I`m doin just great at the mo Jo,how you keepin yourself?

Nothing strange about this, Sam always plays totally across the board, he just knows when to play what at each spot he does. Visit Broughton to catch his full range in an hour spot, he knows he can do it here, so you get the lot, modern monster through to club classic. By the way it's on this Saturday.

Ive always said, if its good play it.If its from 2006 or 1960,but you have to mix the music.

All the best,Kev

Echo Joans comment..the Masqueraders is awesome. His Jerri Taylor "Its Beautiful" cover up is superb too, dunno where he keeps finding them.
