    Welcome to my channel. I make lots of music based videos, mainly dancing to really nice music. My music choices are based on having a first love of Soul and Funk music, although I love a lot of different types of music and rhythms. I enjoy sharing this love and making videos to re-imagine those tunes. I try to mix up classics with tunes not so well known, and putting creative and artistic visuals to the tunes can be fun and interesting, and the process of making videos is part of my journey which has led me to do lots of different things. I have released my own CD through Universal Music, and I have worked with many different companies and style brands where Music or Dance has been part of the campaign. I have worked for the BBC on Strictly as a choreographer, and danced with Pharrell at The Brits. I have had Music Radio Shows and I DJ as part of @streetsofsoul and sometime we put on events too!!

    Well, if there's any compensation, I'm an American who just got into Northern soul last year. Hearing the music, seeing the sights, getting their kicks off, it ignited this feeling that I've never felt before. It was just so harmonious and accepting, even if it geographically felt so far away haha.
    It's true, most Americans don't know about NS and probably never will. They'll think it's cool, but not their "thing". That's alright though, it's not about being better than everyone else. It's something to share and something I'll always cherish, as cheesy as it may sound lol.

They say that a record shop owner in London started to notice that the northern lads coming into the shop on match days and buying a certain style of soul music. So following Saturday sorted the style of soul out and called it northern soul. These tracks are some of the first Soul tracks I got 37 years ago

He flowed across the dance floor doing kicks and spins when appropriate, I,d never seen anything like it and just loved the song ! Been hooked ever since .

    This made me smile! Made me feel proud, too. I was there for the Northern Soul revival in the early 80's. 7 p.m. on a Saturday night and straight through to 7 a.m. the next morning. Cue: a quick wash as well as a change of clothes and shoes. Twelve hours of dancing and, then, stepping back out into the fresh air only to have the sun hijack our eyes. Twelve hours and nearly one mile of slow, tired, heavy walking and we finally reached our usual port - of- call: the cafe. As rough inside as it was painted on the outside. But....this man played - just for us and our wallets - Northern Soul!!! A cuppa; toast; and an fry-up followed by biscuits. Sunday mornings would never be the same again. We must have argued , sang and talked Northern Soul for - at least - four hours! Makes me feel lost and abandoned now to think about all those lost faces. However, and as I said , this made me smile. I can only hope it encourages them to listen to more Northern Soul. I can only hope.

    These are mostly old soul hits from the States. The dance culture is known as Northern Soul because it began in northern England. it was started by people who liked to dance and liked old US soul hits. If you like it there lots of vids on UA-cam and online. You can easily pick up the main dance moves.

    hahaha brilliant!!! as an old manchester mod and northern souler its great to see northern soul coming back with such a gusto and kids getting into it again, the examples shown the kids wernt all that good, some of the old footage from wigan casino back in the 70s would have blown em away, the backflips, twirls and acrobatics would have freaked em out, espceially when they learn that it was from the early 70s, many years before hip hop or break dancing came about. manchester and oop norf was the dance mecca of england, whether soul, rave, house, or whatever. we always danced, cos basically, we were all skint and had nowt else but music and dancing!!! hehehehe keeping the faith!!!!

    It was the Mods in the UK of the mid sixties that really started the R&B culture in England....playing up tempo dance tunes from primarily Detroit in the Coffee bars up and down the country
    Then in Manchester a club opened that would become an iconic symbol of Northern soul THE TWISTED WHEEL. ..it wasn't called Northern soul in the early days that term wasn't coined until 1971...by Dave Godin , who noticed Northern mods were more into the fast tempo dance tunes ....The Wheel was an awesome club....the all nighters legendary ...as a kid I couldn't wait to pay my "ten bob" and get down those stairs to the cellar dance floors. Thiscwas my education in a dance culture that will remain with me forever. .

    Northern soul is the best ever glad im part of it it's a culture thing over here in the UK and we know how to enjoy ourselves the dance moves are fantastic and we certainly know how to dance to this music the kids in America have no idea how it started over here in the North of England in the late 60s we have been dancing to this music ever since than its in our blood Northan soul keep the faith and the movement going stronger than even the young generation are dancing to this kind of music too John Newman is a R and B and soul artist he comes from up north in Yorkshire and if you get a chance to watch the video of the song let me love you again its brilliant the kids are actually dancing to Northan soul it's fantastic the moves are amazing too i like John Newman he is very good as a singer and talented young man🧑🇬🇧✌️👍💋

      It was the black music scene that were getting little air time on the big radio stations and on the little label that got pressed in small numbers like 200 to two thousand copies that we used to search for from small record shops and then collected what we thought were great to dance too and had to import them from American small record shops and take them along with you and ask the Dj's to give them a spin and swap & exchange or sell them to others northern soul freaks at the Wigan Casino club all night dancing from opening to closing at around 8 in the morning , then changing into working boots and straight to work if we could make It on time 😂check out the BBC2 for an old documentary about life in the late 60's to the late 70's and now you'll still have every age group attending these occasions now some hitting 70 years of age and everyone is still KTF 😂✌️😘
