This month, he's joined by Wrighty, Mark and Elmo; his three fellow members of the Soul Buggin' collective – a passionate group of DJs, promoters and music lovers dedicated to celebrating soul, funk, disco, jazz, house and broken beats. 

Through their events and community-focused ethos, they’ve built a reputation for creating inclusive spaces where great music and good vibes take centre stage. They chat about their early beginnings, the Nottingham music scene and they even play a game of 'Soul Buggin' Room 101'.

This interview was recorded in at Movers in May 2026.
