Whats shakin funky people?!  We are back with Volume 186 of the series, and we are thrilled to welcome THREENEONTREES to Soul Room Sessions!

Three Neon Trees (or Adam as his mum calls him) is self-confessed house music maniac. In his own words: “All other forms of music were just precursors to house. When house was formed, music reached its apex, the promised land. There is nothing more after this, just house”.

Adam was a face on the Manchester, UK underground scene during the late 90’s and early 00's, DJing and promoting nights, championing quality underground house, playing alongside some of the greats. Then when the UK club scene dies in the early 00’s, he had to make some difficult decisions and life took over.

But the passion never left him. After nearly two decades he couldn't resist the yearning for those four to the floor beats. So be bought himself some gear, dusted off his records and is now finding his way back into the scene.

He tends to lean toward the Jackin Chicago house style, occasionally mixing it up with other genres, but always maintaining an underground feel, without straying too far into the subterranean - "House music was invented for dancing to not listening to!" is his mantra and he likes to keep it fun, always experimenting with the art of the mix, utilising and embracing all available technology, combining old vinyl favourites with new digital gems.

Happy 2023 to all of our amazing followers!!  Hope everyone is keeping well and safe and all of the best to you all in '23!

Our first feature of the year features a man who rapidly making a name for himself in the underground scene, Rich Emby from Normandy, France!

Rich Emby is a DJ originally from Leicester in th UK but now living in a sleepy part of France. He dabbled in the local Leicester scene some years a go but with more emphasis on the party side of things rather than pushing to great heights. This time around was brought on like a lot of other DJs through the covid pandemic as a way to keep his sanity. 

The Deeply Jacked series on Mixcloud (coming to Soundcloud in 2023) was started in that time and has morphed it's way into what it is today. He now works with other like minded DJs supporting the artists that they admire, bouncing ideas and digging deep into the box to find those forgotten gems. Underground house never really dies so giving these tunes a new lease of life is what drives him as well as spending countless hours discovering the new ones. It has become a big part of his life and is driven through his passion for the music. 

As the series suggests his style is just that, Deep & Jackin house music influenced by Jazz, hip hop, soul and funk but also those squelchy acid sounds and old school Chicago house feel. What ever he plays he always tries to bring energy and an unpredictability to his mixes.

Whats up funky people!?! We are back with Volume 191 of the series and we head out to the west coast for some proper vibes served up by Radda Records head man, Jacob Poe from Portland, Oregon!

Jacob was first introduced to the electronic underground music scene in 1997; he was immediately drawn to the irresistible sound and set about getting his hands on every type of underground music he could find in his hometown of Portland, soon thereafter making his mark in the local scene as a House DJ.  Since emerging onto the scene Jacob has performed at various clubs and outdoor festivals from nearby Western states such as Montana, Washington, and his home state of Oregon to as far away as Italy.  Never one to adhere strictly to one style or genre of House music, Jacob combines his love of soulful, deep House with chunky, banging tech, finding the perfect balance between the styles and riding that wave to its crest, much to the delight of his steady, sweaty, dancefloor followers.  
 These days, in addition to performing out, you can find Jacob Poe feverishly working in the production studio, cranking out track after track of new material.  The sounds that drew him to collecting music and performing live now influence him in the studio as he creates his own original material; his love of funky, soulful, deep, techy, banging beats with hints of disco, jazz, and hiphop are clearly defined in his creations, and his dedication to creating original works shows.  Jacob has successful releases on mimosa recordings, Treasured Grooves, O.X.O Records, Ficus Tree, and Seven Records.

Jacob’s early successes in the production arena, his love for all types of music, and his persistent devotion to creating new material make him an artist to pay close attention to; he’s just getting warmed up, so slip on some comfy kicks and be sure to catch him performing live when you can.

What's shakin funky people?!  We are back with Volume 208 of the series and we welcome the super talented DJ/Producer from France, DJ Tchok to Soul Room Sessions!

Hailing from France, DJ Tchok's early musical background has a particularly divine influence. At the age of 11 he was tutored to play the piano by a priest!

As a result, he was naturally drawn to Gospel and Soul. However his love for music was by no means limited and also extended into Funk and electronic sounds.

At the age of 20, DJ Tchok launched his DJ career, providing eager ears with an eclectic mix of Drum and Bass, Funk, and Hip-Hop. A few years later saw him enter into the realms of House, particularly with a Deep House and Tribal House flavour.

To express all these influences that were close to his heart, DJ Tchok devoted a further 6 years to music production. The fruits of his labour can be found on 'InHouse', 'Greenhouse Recordings', 'Artefact Records', 'Cat in the attic', 'Far Down Records', 'Sheeva Records' and 'Manyoma Records".

What's shakin' funky people?!?  We are back with Volume 214 of the series and we are thrilled to welcome fellow Vancouverite, DJ Bradley Be to Soul Room Sessions!

Bradley’s interest in music started at the age of 5 when he bought my first record, but it wasn’t until he was 9 that his passion for music truly began. At the age of 12, he organized a hip hop party at a local youth center where he first started DJing. He promoted the party for six months and built up a following of around 50 people. However, as hardcore music became more popular, he decided to try his hand at it. Although he found mixing hardcore music difficult, he was fortunate to be introduced to house and garage music, which ended up being his forte.
This led to an opportunity to play at a local nightclub called Rackets (Essex), where he warmed up for DJ Disciple. Following this gig, a promoter offered him a residency at the Playground (Essex), where he warmed up for various top DJs, including Danny Bhudda Morales, Normski, Bobbi and Steve, and Boy George, among others.
During his time as a house and garage DJ, he met Graham Gold, whom he considers to be one of the best DJs in the industry. After a short time, they became good friends, and through their friendship, Bradley had the opportunity to travel around England with him. On more than one occasion, he him play live sets at Kiss FM Studio, which led to introductions to all the top DJs, such as Judge Jules, Paul Trouble Anderson, and the Kiss FM crew. With all the experience he gained from these encounters, Bradley was able to learn a lot from the people he met.
From that point on, his DJ career took off, and he began playing at various venues across England, Europe, and the world.

What's shakin funky people?! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!  We wish you all health and happiness in 2025!

To kick off the New Year, we welcome our good friend Loxley AKA J Caprice residing in Dallas, Texas to the podcast as he graces us with a smooth, groovy downtempo mixtape to keep the vibes thick!

Dallas, TX resident Loxley aka J.Caprice is an established, seasoned veteran in the global electronic music scene as a producer and DJ with an expansive catalog of both remix and original works. Originally hailing from Indiana, J.Caprice’s musical roots centered around experimenting with percussion and as a vocalist, gaining him opportunities to perform locally, nationally, and internationally. His early understanding of music composition and time signature led him to embark on what would become a lifelong love affair with the turntables, beginning his DJ career in 1996. Once he set foot behind the decks, J.Caprice never looked back; it’s been an exciting and enjoyable ride since.

J.Caprice co-owned Juiced Music from 2009 to 2015 and Home Again Digital Recordings, or 'H.A.R.D.', from 2011 to 2015, two of underground dance music’s premier record labels known for consistency, pushing boundaries, and releasing quality house music to the international market. Following the successful launch of Simplistic Music Company in September 2017, J.Caprice has stacked the roster with a dynamic set of artists producing various shades of downtempo, ambient, deep house, lounge, and instrumental releases both for the listener and for its sister collective Simplistic Yogi. Simplistic Music Co has rapidly established its position as a household name in indie downtempo and ambient releases, frequently appearing in Traxsource’s featured releases and Essentials.

Frank Amodo is no stranger to the decks. A veteran DJ with roots dating back to 1987, he’s dived into an eclectic range of sounds from hip hop and electro to freestyle, house, and synth-pop.

In the late '90s and early 2000s, you could catch him playing at various venues and house parties and fully immersed in the underground scene. After taking a break in 2007 to focus on family and his career in photography, the pandemic reignited his passion, pushing him back into the mix in 2020. Streaming live on Twitch, Frank shares both his latest releases and unreleased tracks, connecting with fans and peers alike. His music has landed on some serious labels like Cross Section Music, HI! Reaction, House Global Alliance, Chicago Skyline, Groovphoria, That's Right Dawg, 3rd Room, Reason 2 Funk, CRMS, Sunrising Records, Moiss Music and many more.

Soul Room Sessions Volume 89 | JUWAN RATES | USA

Well here we are, New Years Eve 2018 and its a huge milestone here at Soul Room Sessions, as we present our 100th episode!

What started as an idea for a mix series for the podcast creator, Darius Kramer, to showcase his mixes (Volume 1 started off with Darius), he soon thought about asking some of his DJ friends about maybe doing some guest mixes as well.  Well, almost 4 years later Soul Room Sessions has grown into a globally recognized podcast, featuring some of the biggest names in the industry.  It has been a wild ride, and it has been an absolute honour and privilege to showcase each and every DJ that has appeared on the podcast so far. 

We are absolutely honoured and humbled to present to you all for our 100th podcast, one of the forefathers of the house music genre in our eyes, a man that has been in the game and doing it for the right reasons since the early 80s, the one and only Chicago house Pioneer, Boo Williams (Strictly Jaz Unit Music).

Soul Room Sessions Volume 100 | BOO WILLIAMS | Chicago

For Volume 121 of the series, we are proud to present a true legend of the San Francisco/Bay Area underground house scene.

Swingkidd started his journey into DJ’ing in 1992, when the Northern California Rave scene was birthed. When the raves started getting busted, the events moved into the night (and day) clubs in San Francisco where Swingkidd was fortunate to play & hold residencies.

Swinkidd continues his House Music journey currently playing local events such as Strut, In & out at The EndUp, Broke Buddha, Rhythm Method, Elements of House, Feel it! And Wish Bar to name a few. He provides his own monthly event at Mars Bar call “Danceflō “.

Currently Swingkidd has a show called “STOPWARS!dance on both HOUSEHEADSRADIO.com & sugarshackradio.com, and has been busy DJing both in and around the Bay Area as well as travelling to his "2nd Home", Berlin Germany earlier this summer to play various events. 

As you can see, Swingkidd is a veteran in the scene and we are stoked to welcome him to SRS!!

Hope you enjoy!  As always, available for FREE DOWNLOAD!

Thanks for your continued support!

Soul Room Sessions Volume 121 | SWINGKIDD | USA

Well I had the upmost honour of being asked to replace Chicago legend J-Dub for the Classics festival, held in Halifax every July.  Being a Canadian house music DJ, I have always been inspired by the event and the tight knit house community in Nova Scotia, so being asked to be on a lineup that includes Inland Knights, Natural Rhythm, J Paul Ghetto and more was definitely a highlight of my DJ career to date. 

Big thanks to Nick Nonsense for the invite and for everyone who was so kind in the chatroom throughout.  It was pure vibes!!

Hope you all enjoy and grab a FREE DOWNLOAD!

Big hugs and please give it a share if you dig!

Playing other peoples music for other peoples enjoyment since 1993.

Darius is a self proclaimed "House Addict".  He fell in love with the house sound as a teenager living in Montreal back in the early '90s when he would stay up late on Friday nights and record a dance mix show on Montreal radio.  He was hooked from then on.  He then proceeded to start mixing with one tape deck and a CD player and never looked back.  

When he moved to Vancouver in the late '90's, he started buying records almost daily and spent most of his free time at his favourite record stores at the time, Bassix and Mekanix records.  Over the next few years, Darius held various residencies and ran 2 club nights in Vancouver, playing alongside such talent as Lawnchair Generals and Johnny Fiasco, as well as playing at numerous after hours and raves.   After getting tired of both the late nights and politics in the scene, he decided it was time to hang up the headphones in the early 2000s, but the love of house music still burned inside of him as the years passed. 

In 2013 he decided he wanted to get back into DJ'ing and purchased a basic Pioneer controller and started to collect digital tracks again.  Over the past few years Darius has been busy making a name for himself in the underground scene with numerous guest mix appearances around the world on such labels as House Salad, Reason2Funk, Uglyhouse, Little Routine, Selecta Music, Leven Underground and House Jet Radio just to name a few.  He also started the very popular "SPEED BUMPS" mix series which showcases his love for hip hop and jazz as he shows his versatility as a DJ by blending mixes of nu jazz, hip hop instrumentals and acid jazz flavours reminiscent of Mark Farina's legendary series, Mushroom Jazz. 

He also launched the hugely successful "Soul Room Sessions" podcast showcasing the soulful and jazzy side of house music and downtempo beats with guest mixes from some of the biggest names in the game and the series is still going strong!

In 2017 Darius got his first taste of out of town gigging playing live shows all over the West Coast from his hometown in Vancouver, to San Francisco and Oakland.  Stay tuned for much more from him in the near future!
