Having been the corner stone of all things soulful house Soul Heaven makes it’s mark with a fantastic triple CD compilation and if that wasn’t enough it’s only compiled and mixed by long serving resident the one the only Louie Vega. Louie has been involved with Soul Heaven right from day one. Louie and once Soul Heaven owner Oli White discussed about showcasing Louie to a bigger wider audience. Enter Gareth Cooke and Simon Patterson whom were running Rulin at Ministry of Sound and the beginnings of something very special was born. It was decided that Bobby & Steve Jeremy Newall Phil Asher and Chrissy T would become the London residents. The Soul Heaven name came about when Oli & Simon heard the Pasta Boys mix of Soul Heaven in the box at Ministry and the perfect name was chosen for the perfect night. In 2003 Bobby & Steve parted company along with Jeremy and Chrissy but by this time a brand new team had been established with Phil Asher Andy Ward Aaron Ross & Neil Pierce soon to be joined by new owner Fleur Woolford 2004.Soul Heaven parties (House Music touched by Soul ) always create a great buzz of excitement whether it’s a sell out season in Ibiza with Louie Vega a classy pool party in Miami for WMC or capacity road block event for Masters At Work at MOS. Soul Heaven has had a long standing residence at Ministry of Sound in London and has hosted parties in America Australia South Africa China Thailand Korea Indonesia & closer to home in France Germany Spain Italy Holland Portugal & Switzerland. Soul Heaven has played host to some of the biggest names in house music from International residents Little Louie Vega and partner Kenny Dope (plus of course MAW) to Tony Humphries Barbara Tucker Jazzy Jeff DJ Spen Osunlade Joe Claussell Ron Carroll Kerri Chandler & Dennis Ferrer Blaze Terry Hunter Karizma & Mr V all who have contributed either at their live events or have mixed for their now established series of compilation cds. As Soul heaven enters in tenth year it was an obvious choice to have international resident Louie Vega mix our latest CD celebrating 10 years Of Soul Heaven. CD1 sets the tone as we get ready for a big night out CD2 takes you on a journey on a seminal Soul Heaven top of the night set & CD3 is made up of Soul heaven classic tracks chosen by Louie Vega Phil Asher Andy Ward Aaron Ross and Neil Pierce & Fleur Woolford.

John and Kathy Burns have finally move from their cramped apartment to a spacious new home. They are delighted though somewhat mystified as to why the purchase price is so low. Despite their research and numerous inspections there are no obvious flaws that they can find with the house. Their 'moving day' happens to fall on Halloween and unpacking is interrupted when six of their friends show up to 'christen' the new house. In tow is 'Floyd' a 'medium' who has been hired to entertain everyone by conducting a 'séance'. The séance begins as a joke but ends with guests revealing painful memories of their past. Later that evening John and Kathy are awakened by a noise and are shocked to discover that they apparently share their home with a ghost. Floyd is summoned to their home and a private séance reveals in a dream that the ghost is the spirit of a murdered woman who may be buried somewhere on the property. After an exhausting search inside and outside the body of the dead woman is found. She is given a proper burial and her spirit is released from the house.

Acclaimed art historian Andrew Graham-Dixon gets hands-on with history as he joins with members and employees of the National Trust in discovering the secret life of a country house.Every autumn the Trust puts its 300 houses 'to bed' but it's far from a time for rest. What happens after the visitors have gone is the biggest spring clean in the world requiring not just hard labour but delicate hands and an in-depth knowledge of conservation science. Shut off from sunlight and working in almost freezing conditions Andrew discovers exactly what it takes to preserve much of our national heritage. The dust that gathers the damp that creeps the bugs that hide the bats that nest the gardens that prosper the bits that break the clocks that stop the paint that cracks the marble that chips – the magic that happens under cloak of darkness in these winter months is a miracle to behold.From a Turner painting to a rare Roman statue Andrew Graham-Dixon rolls up his sleeves and commences a unique voyage of discovery as Petworth House undergoes The Big Spring Clean.
