Let\\u2019s first credit a friend of mine, Gilberto Blackmon (The Funky Blackman) whose podcast you will find here on Podomatic:
http://funkyblackman.podomatic.com/entry/2016-07-04T19_32_20-07_00 and on our Facebook Page site \\u201cHouse is a Journey\\u201d:

As some may have noticed I have not touched any Soulful House for more than half a year. I could not even attempt to put any soulful sets together so bored and actually literally without any emotions about any soulful tunes I was listening to. Not receptive, no challenge and felt no purpose.
\\xa0
Yet during my July break, whilst riding a bike in 37C heat, on a high gradient, suffering hell, I chose to listen to his latest set, deep & soulful and \\u201c\\u0395\\u03cd\\u03c1\\u03b7\\u03ba\\u03b1\\u201d... I finally got that warm feeling again, which can only be brought by listening to quality soulful deep house. Thank you Gilberto, without your help, this state of creative impotence could have lasted a lot longer.

Mostly 2016/2015 tunes, one oldie and a triple Marc Evans because I always think of Marc Evans when I delve into Soulful.

Highlight:

Without a doubt the Hungarian Max & Sims\\u2019 rendition of \\u201cSoul Fever\\u201d is the absolute standout of the set. Stellar tune, Echodust is an amazing vocalist and the production of Director\\u2019s cut standard. I started the set with their remix and ended it with AM2PM\\u2019s version with a different vocalist which is not bad either.

Both Marc Evans\\u2019 jams, \\u201cBeneath The Crescent Moon\\u201d and \\u201cFelt Like Heaven\\u201d are soulful house heaven with his unmistakable voice and inspired melodies. Marc Evans is the Barry White of this century and I actually rate him immensely higher as a singer song writer and producer, all in one go, with lyrics have meaning to boost his already immense talent.
