PETE SHIRLEY:

 

Sorry about the late post but like many it's taken more than a few days to recover from the Stockholm Soul Weekender let alone compile my playlists!

 

The task which I usually struggle with has been compounded by two after parties and the resultant record bombs which has certainly added to the challenge! Anywhere, here goes. If anything is missed let me know but this is as good as my recall gets!

 

Thanks to all the DJs who created a unique vibe in an amazingly tranquil location given the energy that was generated all weekend, some of the best sets ever at SSW which flowed from start to finish.

 

Thanks especially to our extended Family circle, to the travellers, the revelers, the entertainers, the dedicated stragglers, you know who you are that contributed to possibly the best Stockholm Weekender ever! We had visitors from Italy, Spain, Finland, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, England, Scotland and Ireland to make it a truly international Soul Party! We hope to see you all next year! Peace xx

 

As with any evening set driven by a collective vibe and the dancefloor reaction my planned Modern bias went out of the window and into the water!
