Body People 55 — Jaysoul

We’re at episode 55 and it’s a guest mix from Jaysoul this week. A DJ we rate very highly and we love any mix he puts out. Jay just so happened to play one of the best sets at this year’s Vocal Booth Weekender, so we have no doubt you will love this mix as much as we do. A selection of soul, hip hop and rare grooves that just makes you want to move…. or make babies. Serious stuff! Listen and enjoy. Will add the tracklist as soon as we have it.

Body People 50 — Phil Asher December 2009

We recently stumbled across this recording of Phil Asher’s set from our 5th Birthday, way back in 2009. Back then we were called Uber and this event in December of ’09 was the first time we had Phil with us to headline. And it certainly wasn’t the last. It was also the very first Vocal Booth Weekender Reunion. It seems fitting we share this for our milestone episode 50 of the podcast. A tribute to Phil Asher. We miss Phil and think about him often, and we felt we just had to share this recordin...

Body People 48 — Paul Griff & Richie Barthez Pt.3

This is the final part of our session at Yard & Beyond back in June. The sun was blazing, the place was full, the Curry was too spicy for us wimps, and one of the DJs was taking liberties with the Masters at Work back catalogue. Those tracks dont really get old though do they. Our next takeover at Yard & Beyond is on 31st July. Midday until 5pm. We hope you can join us. Get your ears round this episode, give is a share and play it loud.

Here’s part 2 of the session we recorded at Yard and Beyond in Stourbridge recently. Paul and Richie pick things up, pulling random old and new tracks out of the proverbial wallet while getting stuck into free Curry Goat and Dumplings. Anyone got a wet wipe?

Body People 45 — Paul Griff & Richie Barthez Pt.1

After more than a year on DJ furlough we’re back to knock the dust off and see if we can still mix a cake. This recording is from our recent takeover at Yard & Beyond in Stourbridge. A cracking outdoor Tiki Bar and Street Food venue tucked away down a side street off the high street. We played from midday until 5pm in the scorching sun and have split the session into three. We’ll release part 2 and 3 in the upcoming weeks. Enjoy!

Body People 38 — Paul Griff (Live at The Stable)

Episode 37 was released over a month ago so we were well overdue a podcast. We thought why not just press record at the next opportunity. And here it is, the first hour of Paul Griff's set at The Stable in Birmingham. This one covers Hip Hop, Soul, Rn'B and guilty 90's pleasures. Mixing is definitely questionable in a few places but eating free pizza in between tracks is the best excuse you'll ever hear from a DJ doing a bar gig. Musically, this one's on point though. Enjoy! Check out our next e...

Body People 36 — Adam Turner

Our final recording from the first Body People at Digbeth Dining Club in August. Adam Turner closes out the event with one of the best sets we've heard. As the diners from DDC were leaving and our crowd was ready to get dancing it was so good to see new groups of people staying to dance with us...... and that just says how good this set was. But if you know Adam, this will be no surprise. Our next event is Saturday 7th September 2019 at Cafe Colette, as part of Digbeth Dining Club in Birmingham...

Body People 34 — Paul Griff, Richie Barthez, Craig Ward

For episode 34 we share part 1 of the session we held at Cafe Colette as part of Digbeth Dining Club at the beginning of August. Paul Griff, Richie Barthez and Craig Ward dug out some sublime Soul, Hip Hop and Neo Soul early on. Forgive the slightly ropey levels and blends on this one..... we were all too busy enjoying ourselves, eating lots of amazing food and drinking lots of great beer. They selected music from Children Of Zeus, A Tribe Called Quest, Sade, Zhané, Brent Faiyaz and many other ...
