New Interview: Mark de Clive-Lowe
Becoming entrenched within the UK
melting pot culture as a young adult, Mark de Clive-Lowe became an
essential part of the broken beat/nu-jazz/future soul culture that
produced immense talents like Bugz in the Attic, IG Culture, and Bembe
Segue. His name has appeared on countless productions, collaborations
and remixes from the last few years, quietly creating the sound of a
movement.

New Interview: Erik Rico
Broken beat soul Erik Rico is impressive not because he's a
multi-instrumentalist, producer and singer, but because his mind is
limitless and his music has a restorative purpose; one full of the
spirit of his culture. Read the interview by Porschia Baker

Nu-Soul bridges the gap between the world of R&B/soul and the underground vibes of electronica, the common factor being a grounding in funk, soul and urban lifestyle. This is a place where the sounds of neo-soul, drum and bass, deep house and breakbeat are a part of the same family. Through fascinating articles, engaging interviews, and the latest reviews, Nu-Soul hopes to open minds to the incredible array of soul influenced music available today.
Sincerely,
