Modern Soul first emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s, growing out of the rich traditions of soul, funk and disco. The sound quickly found a passionate following among DJs and collectors, particularly in the UK’s rare groove and soul scenes, who championed sophisticated productions, smooth vocals and groove-driven arrangements.

The Modern Soul Lounge celebrates how this sound has evolved ever since. From the soulful revival of the 1990s to today’s contemporary soul and groove-driven productions, the show explores the modern side of soul music across the decades.

Expect silky vocals, warm grooves, deep basslines and elegant arrangements — from overlooked gems to fresh releases that keep the spirit of soul alive. Smooth, timeless and deeply soulful.

Top artists: Chaka Khan,  Joss Stone, Mary J. Blige, Tuxedo, David LC Thomas
