Jocelyn Brown

There was the incredible Lolietta Holloway, who recorded a lot on Celsol.

And together with Jocelyn Brown, had a huge influence on 90s house with, well, the big vocals.

I love big vocals.

And there's a real resurgence, too, I noticed, on the dance floor.

It's dance related.

In 1997, which Todd collaborated with singers Martha Wash and Jocelyn Brown on the huge dance anthem Something Going On?

Todd Terry.

Yes, it is Todd Terry.

Yeah.

So, I mean, there's been so many over the years, like, you know, I love, I love all, you know, uh, Jocelyn Brown, you know-

Yeah

... all the kind of legends.

Let's play some big disco tunes.

Jocelyn Brown with In A Life.

Moment of my life.

Yeah, it's huge.

And of course, you know, I've said this many, many times before, you know, disco runs into a house.

Yes, it does.

Particularly when you hear a track that I played before, like Jocelyn Brown or just the Carol Williams, of course, that you heard.

Spillers' Groove Jet was huge, huge, huge, huge.

Louie and Kenny once again.

New York and soul, Jocelyn Brown on vocals.

Come on.

Or should I say let's go.

All right, let's move on.

This is New York and Seoul working with Jocelyn Brown on The Road Pops.

Thank you.

You left, left it open so come back.

Baby keep on turning me on

BJ, the Chicago Kid, and Turning Me Up from the album In My Mind.

We started out there with New York and Soul, rather, and Jocelyn Brown, and It's Alright, I Feel It.

Super Taste in there.

Hi Jules, Alex Mills here.

So for my past track, I picked Believe by Ministers de la Funk and Jocelyn Brown.

I picked this track because I think Jocelyn has one of the most powerful, uplifting vocals in house music.

And also the message of the track is just so uplifting, so inspiring, so encouraging.

All you gotta do is believe in yourself Somebody bigger than you and me Somebody's got their hands in your life, yes they do.

If you believe.

So that was Believe by Minister Zilla Funk and Jocelyn Brown.

I'm clearly a massive Jocelyn Brown fan as I just did a rework of one of her classic tracks.

Let the music play and I'll think about what, who I was thinking about.

And all of a sudden you'll shout Jocelyn Brown or some-

[laughs]

...

The club itself was one of my favourites, you know, because of the sort of realms of dance music that was played you know it wasn't like a one thing you had different nights in scotland at that time and in edinburgh you'd maybe have a house night a garage night maybe something a bit tougher but uh that was the thing i loved about cabaret for it because the music you know it was just dope it was like you know, it was genre-less, you know, as long as it was danceable, you know.

I remember great tunes, you know, Golden Years, David Bowie, and sort of a person I've worked with, you know, Jocelyn Brown, she's, you know, like my auntie, and I've done a couple of records with her, and to drop somebody else's guy, it's a legendary tune, but I just remember this particular moment, it was just like, it was just like next level euphoria.

So yeah, I had many, many good times, it was, you know, I think it was one of the best best clubs in Edinburgh ever, certainly in my tenure.

sadly it came to an abrupt end something happened quite serious that made us all think this can't go on you know going from the early stages to going up to there and it got filmed for bpm continuously in dj's top 10 clubs and it was in that for months so we've been going strong since i think january with every week and then just one night in october somebody got stabbed So we all decided collectively, because there was about six of us all involved in it, we could have kept it going.
