Soulwax tend to tangle up our minds in the web of different names they've given their various incarnations. But let's get it straight: Soulwax is the full-band collective formed around the DJ duo 2ManyDJs, and Radio Soulwax is the blanket name for the variety show-esque touring concept they've had for the last three years.

It's the latter that is featured in Part of the Weekend Never Dies, a documentary/live film examining the Radio Soulwax touring experience and co-directed by the band and Saam Farahmand. Farahmand filmed over 120 shows for the movie, and UK residents will get to take pieces of those shows home on DVD beginning August 25 thanks to PIAS Recordings. Along with the Soulwax road trip and live clips, the DVD also features behind-the-scenes guest appearances from LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy and Nancy Whang, Justice, Klaxons, Peaches, Erol Alkan, Busy P, and Tiga, among others.

The Soulwax hootenanny continues through the coming weeks as various configurations play shows all over Europe.
