I made this for myself and I think the audience for it might be quite small. Out on the Northern Soul scene I was surprised at how many tracks sound like UK library music; understandably as some of the names were familiar to me: Mike Vicker, Max Harris…
I wanted to weave these together with library tracks that have a soulful sound (or a strong beat) and here it is. There are old library tracks, a couple of modern library tracks and a bunch of soul instrumentals.
