New Interview: LTJ Bukem 
LTJ Bukem is an iconic figure in drum & bass for many reasons.
With his landmark album Logical Progression, Bukem broadened the scope
of drum & bass, infusing it with jazz, soul, techno, and ambient
sounds, widening its audience and gaining a loyal fanbase that has
remained intact for well over a decade. Read the interview by Norman Mayers |
New Interview: Corneille
His painful witness of genocide in his native Rwanda and his
evolution into a star in France and Canada, make for an incredible
story. Melodically written in song, Corneille brings to mind a young
Marvin Gaye: thought provoking, smooth vocals and always looking for
growth.

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,
