About This Station

**Northern Soul FM** is an Australian internet radio station dedicated exclusively to the northern soul genre, a music and dance movement that emerged in the late 1960s in Northern England, the Midlands, Scotland, and Wales from the British mod scene. The station’s programming focuses on the heavy beat and fast tempo of 1960s Tamla Motown, alongside the best of Motown, Stax, Atlantic, and Chess Records, as well as new soul, funk, and ska. Listeners can expect live broadcasts and regular programming that celebrate the athletic dance styles and fashions associated with the scene, from venues like the Twisted Wheel in Manchester to Wigan Casino. The station’s tagline, "The Very Soul of Music," underscores its commitment to this underground rhythm & soul heritage, though the website provides limited additional detail beyond its core musical focus.
