| About SoulSpun |

Soulspun is a York based soundsystem bringing the best underground music to the masses. We believe that all music genres should get heard by everyone. So for that reason we have set up a number of nights with different music policies to try and achieve this aim. We love music - almost as much as we love a damn good party - check out our info for events and news as well as our website at soulspun.co.uk
Herbal Mafia An off shoot of Breakz from 2005 making big waves in the music scene of York and beyond. Expect huge names and seriously good tunes with a healthy dose of UK Hiphop and dark Drum & Bass plus turntablism at its best. Soon to be hitting London hard!
Pandora's Parties FREE every Saturday from 8 till late in The Spreadeagle Pub on Walmgate. Playing anything from 60s to Rock to Dubstep to Trance to Northern Soul to Drum&Bass to House to Motown to...the list could go on.....taking a break for august
The Dub Club and open deck event playing more than just Dub, Reggae, Dancehall, Roots and Dubstep. It will be returning to its weekly slot in September
Soulspun Sessions Totally open music policy with at least one live/original local artist.
Reload York's grimiest night yet. Organised in collaboration with Brainwash Beats main man MR SPLEEN, the night is all about the dirtiest, bassiest sounds that we can force from our bass bins. Expect Grime, UKG, Dubstep, Hiphop, Ragga and some nasty D&B with a touch of breakcore and gabba....not for the faint of heart!
The Bombtank is our newest night in collaboration with Bombtank Studios, an occasional event featuring only the best in UK and local dubstep with a few other tricks up its sleeve, watch out for the next explosion!
Thanks for stopping by...
