🎙 Explore the evolution of MEMPHIS SOUL - DEEP SOUL - SOUTHERN SOUL, starting from 1959. Dive into the iconic music that revolutionized dance floors:

✨ **Origins**: A lot of things had changed in 1959 since the ascent of R&B around 1943. It was a year of great opportunities and hope. In the southern and middle states of USA, black R&B musicians threw R&B, Gospel, Blues, and a bit of Country into a big melting pot. They were cooking something that was quite slow but also raw and emotional at the same time. This Rural aka Deep aka Memphis Soul became well known under the leading record company’s name: Stax, granting the name Stax Soul. Memphis Soul was not only the first kind of Soul, but also the most independent one. Musicians wrote their own music - straight from the heart - instead of producers or songwriters. The lyrics were often based on their experiences during the so called “Soul Circuit”: a trail in southern USA almost all Soul artists followed, with a high degree of love, sex and liquor along the way.
🎵 **Highlights**: Deep Soul tracks are recognizable by their low tempo, the use of clipped guitar, and a lo-fi production compared to other Soul. The latter two characteristics also show a gradual evolution towards Funk, the immediate successor of Deep Soul. When the music caught on in the UK, it was renamed as Southern Soul.
📖 **Evolution**: The genre rose greatly alongside national black awareness in the sixties, thanks to the civil rights movement and Martin Luther King. Southern Soul was the voice of black pride, but it wasn’t reactionary nor intimidating. Soul does not try to combat it opposes, instead it tries to disarm. Soul vocalists honor the Gospel tradition of forgiveness and harmony. The music is hopeful, warm and portrays intense stories about love and heartbreak that still sound sincere after all these decades.
