When it comes to Soul and R&B music, Soul Deep should be the name that comes to mind. I had the pleasure of working with and getting to know Mike through a couple different avenues. First as a bartender for his Downriver-famed Soul Deep Sunday, and later as the manager for an upscale martini lounge in Downtown Detroit.
As a manager, you are always looking for something to distinguish your bar from the rest, and Mike and his vast library of Soul and R&B was the answer to this. What better venue to play the greats than a classy, art-deco skyscraper in the heart of Motown? Mike was always professional and on time, arriving early enough to lug his crates and crates of records (yes you read that correctly, actual records) into the bar. He is extremely knowledgeable and was able to interact with the guests wonderfully. Every time Mike begins to play, a bug gets into everyone and soon enough the whole bar is dancing and having a great time.
I have nothing but good things to say about Mike and his abilities as a DJ. If you ever get the opportunity to work with him, take it. You will be sorry if you don’t!
