• DJ Rossi is a welcome addition to Room Red's DJ line up. You can expect to see him on the 3rd Saturday of every month playing great Soulful House and Garage music.

For background information on where the ideas came from for Nu-Soul then check out a couple of books:

• "Love saves the day" by Tim Lawrence, American dance culture from 1970 till 1979.
• "My life and the Paradise Garage"
  by Mel Cheren.

These two give an insight into the type of music which has influenced the Nu-Soul vibe.

The Nu Soul Central night will have a similar feel to that of the monthly Saturday Nu Soul nights where the idea is to play upfront vocal soulful house and garage. Then as the night progresses introduce some up-tempo and uplifting house cuts into the equation.

Derek was brought into the Nu Soul fold by Bob Jeffries and Alistair Hood 2 years ago and has been involved in gigs at the Treehouse in Ayr & Kilmarnock and has a regular gig on the 3rd Saturday of every month in Room Red.

His track listing includes music from djs and remixers, some of which are his idols, such as Masters at Work, Tony Humphries, Roger Sanchez, Joey Negro, Sandy Rivera (Kings of Tomorrow), Norman Jay, Ben Watt (Everything but the Girl) and Dimitri from Paris amongst others.
