DJs

«Since I was a teenager I've collected records of a lot of different genres. However, by the time my mid 20s rolled around I'd honed my focus on soul, funk, and gospel 45s from all over the country but with a particular emphasis on tunes from my home state of Virginia. I try to share my finds on my mixcloud page and I have posted a lot of regional gospel sounds on my YouTube channel. I Dj at random nights around Richmond and on a semi regular night with my friend Jason Hamlin that we call Orbitsville.»

Flo haben wir damals kennengelernt, als er die alte WG von Henning übernommen hat. Eine Bekanntschaft, wie sie nur in Filmen vorkommen. Und wie meist in Filmen, gibt's auch mit Flo immer ein Happy End.

Flo Matt a.k.a. Buddy Flo hat nicht nur die Beweglichkeit, die er an den Soul Yoga Sessions stolz vorführt, sondern auch den richtigen Riecher für das Schwarze Gold. Besonders gerne hat er die Rrrolitas, die richtig tief ins Herz treffen und die Tränendrüse antreiben. Doch in seiner Sammlung finden sich auch die ein oder anderen Modern Soul mover, die die Hände und die Klamotten in die Luft reissen lassen.

- Sarah Vaughan - Mama He Treats Your Daughter Mean
- Lee Brackett - Ruby
- Dee Dee Gartrell - Second Hand Love
- Ray J. & Norma Jean - This Is Our Song Of Love
- Jerry Ganey - Like I Never Loved Before

DJ Pesa, ladies and gentlemen!

It all started with granny’s record player and his parents’ collection. Beatles, Stones, The Who and The Doors were those to inflame his passion for music of the 60s and 70s. Rock music was quickly followed up by Soul, Funk, Jazz and Rap.

For 20 years now he is known as DJ Pesa. Though DJing became a minor matter for the family father his main focus is diggin’ deeply in crates for the treasured vinyl.

Since 2012 he is hosting his own radio show «Lost&Found» on national radio station SRF Virus. He loves to discover his own forgotten records in his collection while preparing his shows and that he can play stuff that wouldn’t be played on any dancefloor.

People shouldn’t ask him about the number of records he owns cause he doesn’t know - as most of addicted collectors don’t! Cause the answer is always the same: «It’s still not enough!»

We’re very much looking forward to Pesa DJing at the NTY cause we’re absolutely thankful for his support and his understanding of the craziness of collecting vinyl.

«Hi to all the soulies out there!

I have a punk-hardcore background, spent my adolescence going to gigs, playing in a short-life band, writin' for fanzines and buying a lot of records. Then, looking for some other exciting music, I discover Motown and the Philly sound and I start going to allnighters and other soul events, djing and still buying a lot of vinyl.

I cut my teeth playing records in one of the worst american bar in Milan, my hometown. Then, with some other friends, I started organizing dj sets with the newborn IL CLUB DEL VINILE crew. When we split up, me and Fred Bully (a.k.a. Torcia) came up with the idea of SOUL 3000, the night we're still doing in Milan. I'm organizing another soul club in Tortona, a little town in Piedmont. It's called THE NIGHT OWLS and got an original formula, mixing soul themed movies and dj sets.

Got a mish-mash attitude in collecting and djing, lovin' to play records from late 60ies crossover to modern soul from the 80ies, not forgettin' some of the best contemporary tunes.

Can't wait to share my love for soul music with you!»

5 tunes Enrico surely plays in Lucerne:

- Lee Williams & The Cymbals - A Girl From A Country Town
- Bettye Swann - When The Game Is Played On You
- Alma Faye - I Believed
- Curtis - How Can I Tell Her
- Luther - Don't Wanna Be A Fool

Fabian is based in Basel and record collector since school days. Mainly into classic 60s Northern Soul, Detroit, mid-tempo and beat ballads but also genres such as Early Reggae and 6Ts Beat. 

Not really a DJ but rather listener and collector, he loves his Juke Box and entertaining his neighbours with far too loud and much too good music. It is what's in the grooves that counts! 

Top of Fabian's box:

Jock Mitchell - Not a chance in a million (Impact)
The Cautions - No other way (Shrine)
Bobby Kline - Say something nice to me (MB)
Jimmy Wallace - I’ll be back (Alpha)
Little Nicky Soul - I wanted to tell you (Shee)

Flo Dalton... and there's nothing else left to say.

This man actually moved to Switzerland because of its cheese and for some specific birds he likes to watch. After living here for a few days even the bus drivers started welcoming him by name and high-fiving his bald head. Besides that he spins some heavily scratched records with Rocksteady, Reggae and Mariachi on them. He loves to dance to House and knows every Techno track by heart (which he tries to sing along).

As a proper member of the Swiss Soul Club cranking crew he's also in charge of the Off Beat Floor which you'll be able to enjoy on Friday night.

Phuoc Ngo a.k.a. ist einer der Organisatoren des NOT TOO YOUNG Swiss Soul Weekenders und der eifrigste Soul Traveler, den man in der europäischen Soul Szene kennt. Er liebt fancy Hotels and Uptempo Soul, hat aber auch seit einiger Zeit Geschmack an Modern Soul gefunden. Das wird während seines DJ-Sets an der 6. Edition von NTY prägnant unter Beweis stellen...

DJ Murphy, Dan and Wab = L.O.V.E.

«Funky Fever» ist eine Partyreihe, die jeden ersten Samstag im Monat in Luzern stattfindet. Die Reihe startete vor fast 20 Jahren in der Bar 57 mit Dj Black Virus und erlebt dank DJ Murphy in der Bar 59 ihr Revival.

Nun läuft die Partyreihe schon seit über 7 Jahren im besagten Club und hatte schon fast alle Funk and Soul DJs der Schweiz mindestens einmal zu Gast. Auch einige internationale DJs haben die Turntables gerockt, wie z.B. Tobias Kyrmaier (DE), Mr. Thing (UK), Skeme Richards (US), Amir Abdullah (US), Amerigo Gazeway (US) oder Double D (DE).

Ein weiteres Highlight waren die Auftritte von den Bands «Breakestra» (US), den «Mighty Mocambos» (DE) und die «James Brown Tribute Show».

Hinter dem Label stehen die Platten-Freaks DJ Murphy, Dan und Wab, die man auf einen Schwatz mit Bier auch mittwöchlich in der Haifish Bar antreffen kann (oder im Co-Mix Remix natürlich). Das Funky Fever lebt das Motto «Save The Vinyl» und ist und bleibt der Event für Funk and Soul Freaks, für Breakdancer, für Oldschool Rap Liebhaber und für alle, die sich gerne zu Black Music bewegen. Boom!

Wir danken tief aus unseren Music-Lover-Herzen für den Support, den wir seit Jahren von den jungen Herren zu spüren bekommen...

Hendrik Irmscher, ladies and gentlemen!
(Not to confuse him with Henning. He's just his soul brother!)

Having started collecting 45s in early 2000, he set in his record journey by collecting 70s Powerpop/Mod and 60s Garage. At that time, he began DJing and organizing some regular parties in Berlin. He has been specializing in collecting Northern Soul and Rare Soul 45s. Recently he started promoting bigger events under the flag of «Soul’d Up - Berlin». Twice a year they celebrate an Alldayer and Allnighter with international guest DJs.

Here are some of the previous spots he played at besides Soul'd Up:

Last year he joined our Saturday Alldayer and passed the exam to go extended - meaning loving long time on two nights as our headlining DJ 2017. Whoop!

«If you ask me what I believe, I’d say I believe in the Easter bunny. Honestly! And I love fried eggs more than my Grandmother.»

Auch wenn es in Zürich nur noch wenige Plattenläden gibt, Hum Records ist nicht nur deshalb Anlaufstelle Nummer Eins für alle Musik- und Plattenfanatiker der Stadt. Einer der Besitzer, J. Sayne ist zum Beispiel mitverantwortlich dafür, dass jedem und jeder, der oder die den Laden betritt um Musik zu kaufen oder um nur darüber zu plaudern, immer wieder der Horizont erweitert wird. Geographisch kann das bis nach Äthiopien oder Guadaloupe reichen, musikalisch von Cumbia über nigerianischen Highlife bis zu griechischem Ambient gehen. Die Basis bleibt aber immer der Hiphop. Als Plattenleger ist J. Sayne aus diesem Grund mehr Teacher als Preacher, immer aber Pleaser.

Was J. Sayne auf jeden Fall mit dabei haben wird:

- Keine Northern Soul Brecher, 
- kein House, kein Trance, 
- kein Swing, 
- kein Blues... 
- und vermutlich nur 45s.

Unser Jan aka DJ Mister Kova ist ein schüchterner Zeitgenosse, allerdings brodelt es in ihm, wenn er treibenden Funk, Soul und RnB hört. Er mag den Stil und Groove der 60ies und 70ies. Geprägt wurde er in seiner Jugend von Idolen wie Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis und George Clinton. Als feiernder Gast bei den Helsinki Soul Stew und Soul Gallen Partys kam er dem Soul ein wenig näher. Bis vor fünf Jahren hatte er nur Alben gesammelt und dann, in einem kleinen Plattenladen in Wien, wurde er dazu überredet, sich mal ein paar Singles zuzulegen. Zur gleichen Zeit etwa hat er spasseshalber angefangen selbst sein Glück als DJ zu versuchen. Man trifft ihn zur Zeit beim Auflegen in den Bars von Prag und nun auch bei uns.

Die Top 5, die wir sicher in Luzern hören werden:

1. Shattered Man - O Jays
2. Ill Bet You - Billy Butler
3. The First Thing I Do In The Morning - Joyce Williams
4. Change, Change, Change - Charles Bradley
5. The X-Sorcist - The Devil

Our friend Johan has always been a devoted attendee of NTY alongside Klaartje and Diggin' Dave. Now we're happy to announce that he's bringing his records with him to hit them on the record player. Whoop! Now, he's introducing himself:

«Hi all, my name is Johan Sneppe, born in Brussels, currently living in Leuven, home of Stella Artois, best premium pils in the world by far. :)

I’ve been collecting records for over 20 years now… Started out with hip hop. My devoted search for all those crazy samples and breaks (used in those records) got me into jazz, soul, funk and all that other good stuff.

Started collecting 45’s somewhere around 2003, first mainly funk 45’s, then quickly into pretty much everything that sounds dope to my ears. Really enjoy it all when going out. Nowadays at home I’m mostly listening to male vocal group (harmony) soul & sweet soul though.

Besides music, I’m always up for a good read or meal, sports (mostly watching though) and drinking/clowning.

Catch you guys in Lucerne! Schollekes!»

5 spins Johan’s definitely going to roll at NTY17:

- Percy Stone & The Explosions – Chained – Ram
- Art Neville – Heartaches – Sansu
- Louis Curry – You’re Just Plain Nice – Reel
- Joe & David Jr. Kingsby – Keep On Walking – S&K
- Tribe – Got To Be Something More – Farr

Hailing out of Derby, the worlds most unlikely funky town, Johnny has been collecting Funk records for over 15 years, back in the days out of Deep Funk forum and Big Daddy magazine. He collected a mixed bag of all things, funky  to Modern to wrist slashing Sweet with a beat Soul. You can mainly find him in clubs in Manchester and across the U.K., inficting pain and misfourtune with his enviables playbox.

5 records which will definitely be in Johnny's record case next March:

The Moovers – Someone To Fulfil My Needs – Deep City
Emulations – These Are The Things – Emulate
Frank Hutson – Old Man Me – Goodie Train
Ray Fraizer – Loneliness – Stanson
Symphonic Four – Who Do You Think You’re Fooling - Zudan

Patrik Parmar a.k.a. Patman (Get Ready!)

«Purveyor of deep, infectious dance grooves and a feel-good atmosphere, from the well known to the obscure.» - That’s how Patrik describes himself as a DJ. 

Never afraid to go too deep, his emotive musical selections are his own therapy. Having grown up on his parents eclectic combination of world music all which became infused with his own love for hip-hop, jungle, dub, reggae and more, Patman ended up with quite a mixed spectrum of musical influence. Today, this translates into sets where he picks apart and infuses together all the pieces of this music that he loves best: beautiful harmonies, heavy drums and thumping basslines... all on top of a pronounced foot-tapping rocksteady beat.

An active member of his local 68/69 reggae community, Patrik is a part of the Get Ready! Crew alongside Thomas Eiene, Joachim Sande and Jan O, a monthly clubnight in oslo AKA Bosslo.

«In Oslo where ravers swing, it’s the Get Ready! thing.» - His love for music goes beyond the spectrum of selecting tunes. As a cratedigger and DJ he has made plenty of new friends from all over the world who also enjoy collecting/ selecting the sounds of young Jamaica.

«For me, it’s all about mood and the groove... playing those chunes that get you rock and sway without you realizing it, regardless of tempo or release date, although mostly late 6Ts early 7Ts.»

These 5 tunes will definitely be in Patrik's box in March: 

- Norma Frazer - Respect
- Kingstonians - Put Down Your Fire
- Alton Ellis - Can I change My Mind
- Hugh Malcolm - Good Time Rock 
- Delroy Wilson -This Life Makes Me Wonder

Pazi the Fist ist Resident-DJ der ersten Stunde von SMART Lion Zurich. Obwohl die Bezeichnung «Fist» Intoleranz assoziieren lässt, so ist Andy vielfältig in seinem Musikinteresse: Northern Soul über Reggae zu Ska, all das hat Platz in seiner Kollektion und in seinen Sets. Auch in diesem Jahr wird er uns auf dem Offbeat-Floor zum Skanken bringen.

Tall guy Raffish Raab will probably suffer from the results of altitude sickness being from the country below sea level and playing at the NTY Soul Weekender in Lucerne but that will not stop him from throwing some soul in the bag to make fingers snap, heads nod and livers shiver with a selection ranging from straight jazz to dreamy vocals and exotica 45's

Already at age 12 the urge to search and find new music existed and manifested in a collection of tapes full of radio recordings, taped over and over again to obtain the perfect collection. A part time job for someone in high-school alright. 

However, the love for jazz and vinyl did not came until years later. It was in the late 90ies when producing jungle and searching for the perfect sample the 1 euro thrift shop records started to replace the tapes on the shelves and slowly but steady more and more jazz records filled the room. Still mainly bought for samples, they gathered dust for a few more years until one day listening to a Don Rendell record made time freeze. From this moment on, the focus shifted completely: the interest for electronic music stayed but the drive to explore the rich and beautiful history of jazz music slowly but steady became a bigger and integral part of his life until this very day. 
Playing records at gigs became a way of reliving and sharing many of the discoveries to date - making a set by Raffish Raab a very personal listening experience - join the Sunday brunch to find out yourself!

5 records Stephan will surely play next March:

Richard Barbary Soul Machine - Nature Boy 
Wanda Stafford - Blue Guitar
Paul Quinichette - Tropical Intrigue
Lynn Oliver - Lynn's Groove 
Brita Koivunen - Läksin minä kesäyönä käymään

«I've been into rare soul since my late teenage. As taste varies I've in recent years found out that I like a lot of different styles from northern soul, funk, gospel and raw uptempo 70s soul. During my years on the Swedish soul scene I've promoted a few clubs but in recent years I've been lucky enough to have been invited to DJ a few different venues across Sweden. I'm always on the lookout for sounds to play. A bit restless I guess. This is the first major weekender I've been invited to outside Sweden and of course I'm very excited!»

SPIN CLUB LUCERNE [spɪn klʌɓ luɕɜɻɲ]:

Lucerne’s Rare-Soul-crafters number one and flagship of the Swiss Soul Club. The party label stands for vinyl music of the 60’s/ 70’s/ 80’s dished up by the self-styled but definitely treasured nerds Henning Boogali (f.k.a. Boogaloo) and Emel Ilter. «Strictly-original»-proved.

They are into soul music you might come up against scarcely, mostly preferring obscure tracks. Still they appreciate the classical 60’s (Northern) Soul sound and create a respectable mixture of oddish but catchy styles. They are two personalities who have bats in the belfry without any doubt – which they proudly present behind the DJ decks while DJing back-to-back, doing some proper Four Tops moves.
