Description:
It’s that time again as the soul-identity Music bandwagon rolls into the Barrio for another night of fun, frolics and exceedingly good music. This month we welcome the very special talents of JC who runs the soul, funk, jazz, Latin and Afrobeat influenced imprint Here and Now Recordings.
Home to an assorted roster of artists comprising of Yam Who?, Funkanala, Motivators (who feature Manu Dibango’s rhythm section) plus new signings DJD and Chaz Jankel (with Angie Brown on vocals!), Here and Now Recordings are firmly committed to providing credible soul and jazz influenced dancefloor music. After making a serious impact by licensing the Funkanala anthem “Economy Class” to Defected for their Miami compilation, the label hasn’t looked back with their releases gaining DJ support from the likes of Carl Craig, Stacey Pullen, Shuya Okino, Patrick Forge, Danny Krivit, Spiritual South, Kev Beadle and Seiji.
In the midst of celebrating the release of Record 4 (Motivators’ “Jobu / Le Groove De Prune” – fact fans), JC will be joining the soul-identity residents on the night to spin a mixed bag of dancefloor friendly business incorporating everything from New York City funk and disco boogie, Latin Afro breaks and beats, through to nu soul and future bruk basslines.
Admission as always is FREE.
First Friday of the month, 8pm till late.
