All Aboard

We managed to record two hours of the uStream broadcast from the event at

The Shipping Forecast on Sunday the 27th March.

Thanks to NNS All Star Ste Hodge for helping us sort the sound issues, good to have a set of ears out there!

There was a nice crowd in with a few people enquiring about NuNorthern Soul and the music being played, which is always nice.

Lots of nice music recorded, only slightly ruined by Phat Phil's ugly mug looming in the video.

Chester Summer Sessions

Flying the Flag...

We sit here, windows open wide, music sneaking out the speakers and we could swear Summer has arrived early...!

If this sudden run of Sunshine is a sneaky peek of what is to come then we are in for a treat of a Summer...

As Roy once said "Everybody Loves The Sunshine..."

Sunshine Soul

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...

Anyway, keeping on track... NuNorthern Soul will be hosting Monthly all day affairs at The Commercial Hotel in Chester. These sessions start at 2pm and run for 12 hours, we have an amazing outdoor space that runs till 10pm and then its inside for 2 rooms of music ranging from Soul, House, Disco, Dance Floor Jazz and other musical oddities... These events are aimed at the dancers...

We shall be bringing in various guests from the four corners of the UK and Europe including Onda Sonora (Belgium), Cubik Music (Ireland), Those That Know (Durham), Zodiac Club DJs and Gary J (Wrexham) plus the usual support from the NNS All Stars!

Session #5 is Saturday May the 28th
Session #6 is Saturday June the 18th
Session #7 is Saturday July the 30th
Session #8 is Saturday August the 27th

Onda Sonora - Making Waves

The venue has several amazing boutique style rooms for those who want to make a trip out of it, they have lots of amazing food and booze on offer and through the day will be running a BBQ...

Tear Along Dotted Line

Tune of the Day Featured Artist #3 Tom Moulton 6th Feb to 12th Feb 2011

Tom Moulton

NuNorthern Soul takes a retrospective look at one of the pioneering figures of the early disco / dance music scene, Tom Moulton. Without Tom we are pretty confident the Disco scene would not have flourished as it did in the 70' and 80's and this would have had a dramatic effect on all elements of dance culture including

Hip Hop.

Tom Moulton was responsible for the edit. Taking a track and extending the breaks sections or stripping back elements to create grooves and space, essential for the dancers. This subject is covered in many other blogs and sites, we suggest you go off an explore and learn about the art. Tom is also credited for accidentally creating the 12" maxi single.

Check out an amazing interview with Tom HERE

From the 6th February, for 7 days we shall be tweeting a Tune of the Day from our @NuNorthernSoul twitter account that Tom Moulton extended.
