Can it really have been a year already? One of the most recognisable and loved nights in Manchester, You Dig? celebrates a whole year of bringing the funk at Soup Kitchen. Resident DJs Simon Ham – or H.A.M. as he sometimes prefers to be known – and Deisler have spent the past 25 years appreciating, hoarding and collecting weird vinyl, which means chances are you will hear everything from Bosnian folk jazz through to British working man’s soul, connecting the dots between long forgotten funk classics, cheeky Latin beats and dust covered R&B grooves. Their podcasts and mixes are a good place to start for beginners – have a listen to the latest one below.
Fri 19 Jul, Soup Kitchen, 31-33 Spear St, Manchester, M1 1DF, 10pm – 3am, £3, http://www.skiddle.com/
