the story so far
Twenty years ago, a few of London's pioneering DJs forged a blueprint for club culture that has since gone on to dominate the world-wide music scene.
The underground 'sound system' set up of the warehouse party era exploded into the mainstream. Soul II Soul & friends had instigated a global shift that changed the face of clubbing forever. Good times were had by all and deep-rooted reputations grew!
In 2004 SOUL II SOUL presented a unique addition to the international party circuit BACK II LIFE, ANTIGUA. A truly original breath-taking opportunity to experience the original vibe of the London club scene in the Caribbean.

We celebrated the 5th anniversary in 2008, now once again David Rodigan, Norman Jay, Trevor Nelson and Jazzie B will be joining forces once again to create another original feel good experience. Leaving the grimy, rain-sodden streets of London behind in order to take the party back to Soul II Soul's spiritual home...
The Caribbean paradise island of Antigua; already famed for its breathtaking natural beauty. Make no mistake this is not a mass-market party destination such as Ibiza, Ayia Napa and Thailand.

By day you can enjoy sporting activities, tour the island, or simply relax and be pampered on one of the world's finest beaches.

Interview with the DJs
This film was shot in April of 2008 in Antigua and goes someway to explain what this event means to the DJs involved.
It should be noted a rare occasssion to have the mighty Rodigan in front of a video camera, over his epic career he has frequently quoted 'video killed the radio star'...
Due to the infrastructure of the island of Antigua places are extremeley limited.
Accomodation is also very limited during this period due to the 43rd 'Antigua Sailing Week' which runs in last April. Now one of the worlds premier sailing regattas.
