I pick Backstreet as it really does remind me of my time since 1976 on the northern soul scene, and it inspired me to start the scene in Denmark in 1991.
I have always liked the more up-tempo soul sounds. It has always been my dream to see a northern soul scene functioning in Denmark. And I am happy to see the building of the club over the years. Thanks to all who turn up. Keep on coming. You're going to love it. You can read more about me on the history page.

First time I heard Northern Soul was about 7 years ago at a Backstreet venue Operaen Christiania. I had never heard any of the songs but I just loved it from the ghetto and the atmosphere was great. I have been a dj for about 9 years. I started out as a Funk Dj but started collecting Northern Soul 4 years ago and started playing at Backstreet at the 23rd of April 2005. Since then it's just been one long love affair. Last Year I started the second Northern Soul Club in Denmark with Søren (Ghetto Soul in Aalborg). This Summer Søren and Me went to Chicago to buy records and I had the pleasure of playing a set at the local Northern Club. I hope you will all find as much joy and love in Northern and rare soul as I have!
Remember it´s about that Heart of Soul.

I started listening to Northern Soul about 31 years ago dancing away at youth clubs in North Yorkshire, and I got hooked… Once the music gets into your system it stays their, even 20 years 'out of the scene' didn't help cure me (thankfully).
The great music and the fantastic atmosphere that always accompanies a Northern Soul event has to be experienced… It's just pure joy. As can be seen from my top five play list, I'm a big fan of the Detroit sound. The fantastic musical arrangements and the syncopated rhythms adopted by the producers of the 60's Detroit sound has, in my opinion never been equaled. Fantastic dance music that has, and always will be able to stand the test of time!
