"The Soul Shack" w/ DJ-J-ME

Nov 28 2024 11 ep. 190 mins 1k

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). His music style can be described as eclectic, sophisticated and soulful, using remixes, edits and acapellas to put a fresh twist on even the most well known songs, seamlessly mixing the familiar with relatively unknown lounge grooves and forgotten gems to provide a unique and engaging soundtrack.

Episode 213: The Soul Shack (Apr 2024) Live @ Kasa Moto (Apr 19, 2024)

Nov 28 2024 249 mins  
My apologies, I've really neglected updating the podomatic page, despite being current over on Mixcloud.Back in April I knew I was going to record a "so this is 50" mix for my birthday at the end of the month in Miami, but I wouldn't be able to post it in time for April. I was pretty happy with my set that Friday at Kasa Moto, so I figured I'd use it for April. It's a nice mix of n

Ugh, I'm so behind on posting mixes on Podomatic. Please note that I'm up to date on Mixcloud if you want to listen to the new mixes (while I catch up here)Here is my annual lounge music recap from the past year. Usually it's the February mix, but this year I'm a month behind because the 18yr Anniversary mix got pushed to January, and the house recap became February. Anyway, this i

This was supposed to be the January mix, but thanks to the Cottage Mix series, I couldn’t post the anniversary mix in November, it became January, and now for February we’re looking back with my #housemusic recap from the past year. A journey through various styles of house and the tracks that caught my attention in 2023 (not all released last year, I was late to the party on a

Episode 208: 2023 Sunday Morning Edition (DJ-J-ME Cottage Mix Series)

Feb 18 2024 134 mins  
The last instalment of the 2023 Cottage Mix Series, the "Sunday Morning" edition (unless I decide to make a live recording from Kasa Moto or Black & Blue into a 2023 Summer Home In Mykonos edition ;-)Soul Shack fans should still enjoy (it's still based on my personal taste in music) but this one is the more chill background vibes and has a much wider audience, so please, if you

Episode 206: DJ-J-ME Cottage Mix 2023 (Saturday Afternoon Edition) aka August Soul Shack

Nov 21 2023 163 mins  
Sorry for the delay in posting, I kept missing my window to upload a new mix before I went over my bandwidth limit, but here it is, the return of the very popular "Saturday Afternoon Edition" from the Cottage Mix Series. This mix was recorded live at the Thursday Ladies Night residency I was doing and it's pure retro nostalgia for the grown folks! (There's even a little freestyle s

Episode 205: DJ-J-ME Cottage Mix 2023 (Friday Night Edition Pt 1 & 2) aka July Soul Shack

Aug 29 2023 259 mins  
I'm bringing back the Cottage Mix Series for 2023! July (it was posted earlier on Mixcloud) is the Friday Night Edition, recorded live at a "Retro Attic" party, where all of the song selections had to be at least 10 years old, so nothing but throwbacks! Recording it live at a gig like this I had to keep it pretty mainstream, so no obscure gems here, but definitely some guilty pleas

Episode 200: The Soul Shack (Sept/Oct 2022) aka "2022 Bar Promo"

Nov 30 2022 1 mins  
So back in the winter when places finally started opening up again, I recorded a 2022 Bar Promo mix, thinking I'd use it to try and get some gigs...and then got so busy that I never gave it to any venues! It's a great mix, so I figured I should use it as a Soul Shack mix before the year ends! Here's the full live recording with the "first half of the night" being a mix of funk, sou

Episode 197: The Soul Shack (April 2022) aka "Throwback Rn'B Mix"

Jun 17 2022 124 mins  
So April 2020 at the start of Covid I got nostalgic and recorded a 90's (isolating in the) house mix. A year later Ontario was going into yet another 4 week lockdown and I got nostalgic again, posting a hip hop from my twenties mix. This year I figured I'd keep with this new tradition of nostalgia for April and am posting a Throwback rn'b mix! This mix is more mainstream than my us

Episode 184: The Soul Shack (Apr 2021) aka "Hip Hop From My 20's Pt 1 (backpack boombap edition)

Jul 16 2021 158 mins  
So last April I got nostalgic and recorded a 90's (isolating in the) house mix. A year later Ontario is going into our latest 4 week lockdown and I'm getting nostalgic again, but this time for the hip hop from my twenties. There will be a second "street" edition, but part one here is (for lack of a better word) more of the "backpack" stuff. Still boom bap, but not the street, club
