Juno Daily – In The Mix: Athens Of The North | Juno Daily
“Sparkly modern soul and disco music” is the rather modest tag that the Athens Of The North apply to their illustrious and rather bulgingly prolific catalogue.
The label is, among the jazz/funk/soul community, a byword for high quality tunes that are destined to fill just about any dancefloor you care to test them on.
Their latest offering Just A Touch sees Sam Don selecting choice cuts from the 90s UK underground sweet soul scene, and in honour of that particular gem, label founder Euan Fryer has taken to the decks to treat us to some Northern Athenian civilisation…
