Soulparlor is a German-based production and DJ collective consisting of three members, Frank Kraushaar, Frank Lotz and Tobias Müller. Through their own releases, several remixes and two long-time club residencies in the Rhine-Main-area the guys have made their mark throughout Germany, Philadelphia, New York, London and Berlin.
They were involved in almost all the tracks on their former label “Sense Music” and have so far released 15 singles under the names Soulparlor, Care Company, F, Callahan’s and also an album entitled “The Way We Talk”.
Their music productions were followed by DJ-bookings (a T-D1 sponsored tour in Canada and Germany with Atjazz, Swag and Rasoul) and remix-requests for such august names as Atjazz, Juan Atkins, Oscar, Swag and Gammat 3000.
In the near future the collective have releases planned on TrebleO, Coopr8, G.A.M.M. as well as upcoming projects with "Daz-I-Kue" of Bugz In The Attic, “Rep Life” from Cleveland/USA and their home-grown star “MC Louie Mumblz” and a new album in 2008.
Musically their productions range from Philly Hip Hop, Nu Soul, Funky 70’s Disco, Soul and Boogie tunes up to Deep House, Nu Jazz and their specialty Broken Beats.
