monuMENTALsoul

If you happen to be over there in London town England do not miss this...Dearest groovy MENTAL Soul people, London's premier Modern Soul & Crossover night is back this Saturday 31st May for Mole's annual Big Birthday Bash. We are very pleased to welcome back our MonuMENTAL friend Mr. Tony Rounce - purveyor of all things soulful, alongside Mr. Brian Baker making his MonuMENTAL debut. For those who don't know Tony, he was on the original DJ line up at the 100 Club nighter in 1979, compiler of zillions of soul compilations, writer of liner notes, old Mod and general soul-know-it-all! Expect the unexpected (and a bit of Barry White). Brian Baker is one of the younger DJs on the rare & modern soul circuit, renowned for his Sunday nights at The Reliance in Shoreditch and The Red Lion in Hoxton. Brian's sound is mod meets disco meets crossover - a breath of fresh air. We have the makings of another classic MonuMENTAL night.
As always your resident MENTAL DJs are as ever Gareth "Girth Devon" Donovan, Mole and me, Niki Golding. We will be spinning a selection of funky floor-fillers, modern soul anthems, lesser known 60s & 70s, ultra rare crossover and a smattering of new SOUL releases.... the very best in QUALITY SOUL old and new. A night of great soul music and great company at a great venue, with a wooden floor made for dancing and our legendary pub priced beer and draught bitter.....
