SoulStrutter Summary Apr 2022 Neo Soul

Having already posted a summary for the 'main' Dirty Dozen for April, here's one for the Neo soul releases for the month.

SoulStrutter Summary Apr 2022

The SoulStrutter Selections of the Week and The Dirty Dozen Mixes for April 2022.

Previous months

Jan, Feb, Mar

It's been a bit of a slog this month as I was away for the first two weekends so spent the remainder of the month playing catch-up. Therefore, there have been no Mixcloud mixes done this month as I simply haven't had time to do them. However, here's a run down and summary of the selections for April with links to individual entries in The Dirty Dozen and links to the Spotify Playlists on the week numbers. With the focus constantly being on what's new, it's good to reflect back on the month as a whole. Many have done well, but equally there are many that have still been overlooked.
