This one's gonna be a big one...

What do you get when you mix obscure early '70s soul music with a turntable fanatic who is on a hell-bent mission to recycle sonic waste from the past?

You get Scouser Sonny J who kicks off his campaign to make TV nostalgia-ridden modern soul pop records with the impossible-to-ignore single 'Can't Stop Moving'.

Coming from the same camp as The Avalanches and The Go! Team, its incessant pop hooks guarantee it a place at the top of the hit list. In truth it will probably be bugging you within weeks.

But if other tracks such as the title number from forthcoming album ‘Disastro’ are anything to judge by, this is a sample hunter who has more than one clever trick to impress with.

Sonny J’s 'Can't Stop Moving' is out on October 8and available at Amazon.co.uk.
You can catch Sonny J playing at Cargo on 24 October.
