In preparation for our 5th All Day Affair at The Commercial Hotel in Chester on Saturday May the 28th, we have asked our Belgium fam to send us a mix to help prepare you for the forthcoming party...
They dually obliged and sent us this selection...
For those of you unfamiliar with Onda Sonora, they are a collective based in Brussels, Belgium with a strong love of Soul laden music in its many forms. They organise and DJ parties, host a damn fine blog and radio show too.
So get your ears round this mix, pop on your dancing shoes and get down to the session on the 28th May from 2pm...
For those who are not familiar with NuNorthern Soul and its history, we started as Northern Soul in a tiny boozer in Chester over 10 years ago... We added the 'Nu' part as we kept getting die hard Northern Soul fans turning up and them be-moaning we had nicked the name of the scene they loved so dearly...
