ELECSOUL PRESENTED BY DJ ROBBIE DUNCAN

The heatwave has returned to the UK and hit us hard this week, hence the name of this week's show: SWELTER. Episode artwork was taken during our trip to the Alhambra, which was probably the first time we experienced truly sweltering temperatures (around 40°C). Tracks featured in this week's show include a couple of interesting selections from my music library: Natural Vaudou – Vaudou Game, Calle F...

Full track listing and previous shows are available at www.djrobbieduncan.com/elecsoul

This week's selection takes its name from the beautiful collaboration between Terrace Martin and Robert Glasper, No Wrong No Right. To me, the title encourages a feeling of simply trying things and going with the flow of life. With that thought in mind, the opening records in this show could almost be interpreted as futuristic for their time. Listening back to Mass Production's Galaxy and George D...

This week's selection is called AM Blues — a soundtrack for slow starts, unexpected journeys and the memories that certain records can unlock years later. Full show notes www.djrobbieduncan.com/elecsoul

ElecSoul Deeper Than You Know This week's ElecSoul journey drifts through soul, jazz-funk, deep house and disco, connecting timeless classics with contemporary underground sounds. I captured the Isaac Hayes track directly from the original cassette album, which was great fun and brought back a lot of memories. A big thank you to Ray Juss for inspiring me to dig back through my old cassette collect...

I've called this one Freedom Suite as it's a straight through mix for sunshine vibes where ever you are. Full track list available to djrobbieduncan.com/elecsoul Come over and I'll see you there!

This week’s show is called SOOFLE. Soofle is a highly influential early French deep house and techno project formed in 1993 by legendary electronic producers Ludovic Navarre (best known as St Germain) and Shazz. I’m genuinely happy right now. The sunshine is finally out, and after nearly six years of building, shifting and refining ElecSoul, the studio setup finally feels how I want it to feel… or...

MOVE ON UP Soulful movement through jazz, deep house and Detroit-rooted electronics. From Brian Jackson to Jeff Mills, Cameo and more. Full track information at https://djrobbieduncan.com/elecsoul/blog/7767629/move-on-up

This week it's a mixtape show. I'll back on the mic next week for a catch up call. OWN IT. A DJ mix moving through soul, jazz, broken beat, deep house and techno. This set is about trusting my sound and letting different energies sit together naturally, from warm, soulful moments into deeper, more driving club spaces. No forcing it, just letting the music lead. Featuring music from Eli Escobar, Cr...

This week’s show is a reflection on Friday at the Brick Lane Jazz Festival a snapshot of a scene that continues to evolve, blending jazz, soul, broken beat and club sounds into something genuinely forward facing.

The live element is key. anaiis alongside Grupo Cosmo captures that improvisational spirit. A Friday that felt very special. I also made it down to the Music Is Black Exhibition at V&A E...

This week’s show, Turning Tables, moves through soul, jazz, broken beat and smooth club sounds. I’m flipping between past and present, originals and reworks as per usual. Opening with Allysha Joy, whose work continues to sit at that intersection of jazz, soul and spiritual expression. There’s a reimagined song by Emmavie, before moving into her own Dropping Keys, full of warmth, Ooh and have a bea...

Show opens with a sense of purpose. Brian Owens & The Royal Five set the tone with a message-led warmth, before Loose Ends bring that unmistakable UK soul feel. I recently spent some time with Paula Rego’s work at an exhibition in Cheltenham. There’s something about the way her illustrations and way she twists narratives of the traditional nursery rhymes. At the same time, I’ve been revisiting How...

This week’s show, SKIES, sits somewhere between uplift and reflection. I found myself going down a bit of a historical rabbit hole learning about Haile Selassie and his time in Bath. There’s something powerful about imagining that moment an emperor in exile, moving through the same streets and spaces we pass through now. Bath Skyline

Closer to the present, we spent time walking the Bath Skyline W...

This show is a personal one. My mum passed away at Easter in 2016 after a long battle with vascular dementia following a stroke. Alongside my sister, I became one of her principal caregivers for nearly 10 years from those early days of recovery through to her later diagnosis. Throughout it all, Mum held onto something powerful: a willingness to try new things, and a focus on what she could still d...

Friday 27 March 2026: This week’s episode leans into a soulful, percussive space drifting between broken beat, house, jazz, and deeper club textures. It’s one of those selections that came together quite naturally, starting in a more introspective place before opening out into something a bit more expansive and rhythm-led. Tracklist: Farah Audhali & Blue Lab Beats – Found You Nicholas Payton – Gol...

Thank you for tuning in to my new series of ElecSoul. This show has been a labour of love for over five years, and now it feels like the right time for it to grow, mature and spread its wings. The music will always remain rooted in soul and jazz influences, but I’ll also be taking the opportunity to share some of my discoveries and observations from the wider creative world of art, books, ideas an...
