Radio Digital Soul

Digital Soul Radio is a London-based service centred on deep and soulful house music. It is connected with Digital Soul, the label and music activity established by Jimmy Read in 2001 after years of DJ work and promotion in London. This background gives the station a direct relationship with the music scene it represents, joining radio presentation with production, releases and events.

DJ programmes provide the main framework for listening, with individual selectors contributing their own approach to house music. The emphasis on deep and soulful styles gives the service a more specific identity than a broad dance station. Programmes sit within a wider musical culture shaped by DJs, producers and listeners who follow this part of the house repertoire.

Jimmy Read's own musical background helps explain the station's direction. His account links early listening to soul and Teddy Riley's sound with the experience of London's warehouse-party scene as house developed. DJ work and event promotion preceded the label's releases, and radio became another outlet for that musical activity. The connection is therefore practical as well as stylistic: the project brings together selecting records, making music and presenting it to a dance audience. Deep and soulful house remains the thread linking the label, its club nights and the radio programmes.

The broadcaster's website brings radio together with information about releases, events and the people involved. Chat and shout-outs offer ways for the audience to participate around the live programme. Digital Soul is intended for listeners seeking house music with a London scene connection, where radio shows form one part of an ongoing relationship between recorded music, DJ culture and shared listening.
