With a new mix on www.podomatic.com/soulshack each month , DJ-J-ME started "The Soul Shack" in November 2005 on Soulstream Networks as a way to share with the world his take on 'good' music...made with soul. From soulful & classic house to nu disco & chillwave to neo-soul & nu-jazz to rn'b to old school, funk and 'real' hip hop, it's all fair game on "The Soul Shack". Each month, depending on Jamie's mood you may hear any or all of the above music - sometimes a mixed bag of 'all things soulful', sometimes just a particular theme or genre...but always soulful! With Soul Shack parties having occurred in Toronto, New York, Miami & LA, the brand (and DJ-J-ME) continues to grow and gain new fans. Check this podcast for the latest Soul Shack mixes. (Archived Soul Shack mixes are available at www.mixcloud.com/soulshack) About DJ-J-ME: In demand, Toronto based dj who has played everything from 2,000 person Fortune 500 corporate events to Toronto rooftop hotspots like Kost & Lavelle to a decade of TIFF events in Yorkville for various celebrities, as well as gigs in NYC, LA, Chicago & Miami (where he enjoyed a monthly winter residency before Covid hit)...

"The Soul Shack" w/ DJ-J-ME (April 2015) "Live @ Cold Tea Pt 1"
So many decisions as to which mix to post!!! I decided I'd start with the first one from the "Pre-WMC" party at Cold Tea back on March 13th (you'll have to just wait for the poolside promo mix and the Adidas, Broken Shaker & Boogie mixes from Miami!) and then the more upbeat part 2 I'll post for May.
Hope you enjoy! (It wasn't until I started adding the tags to this post that I realized just how many big classic hip hop names are included in this mix! It's crazy! (but yet I also still worked in one of my current favs "Don't Wanna Fight" by Alabama Shakes. Just check the playlist below, if you're around my age and grew up on hip hop, this mix is for you!)
