Midnight Soulstice is a Richmond Soul and Funk radio show, hosted by Mr. Felty & DJ Pari, featuring guest artists and DJs.The show airs every Friday from 11pm-1am EST. Listen live at 97.3fm or WRIR.org

We’re shaking it up a bit for this podcast. Get ready for two hours of raw, lowdown and nasty Funk selected by DJ Pari. The tunes on this show have never made it into the charts and most of the artists are long forgotten, if they were ever known. Yet the music is still there – a testament to the legacy of early Funk.
