I'd like to hear those sheffield guys you speak of. The problem with "soulful house" or whatever anyone wants to call it is (just like other genres) that it's a 90/10 rule (and that's probably too generous) so that 90+% makes it easier to draw such conclusions.
One could say the same for all those basic channel/mills bites I guess. Not that I listen to much other stuff so I can't really speak on it.
