Information
Soul Funk Factory, Here’s what people are saying!
Interviews gathered from the audience right after Soul Funk Factory’s concert on October 13, 2023, aboard the Bateau El Alamein in Paris.
The opportunity was just too good to pass up! IMAGINE: you’ve just been to a concert and someone hands you a “blank check” to give your opinion. You’re still caught up in the vibe. You haven’t come back down to earth yet, and they’re already asking you what you think. No time to plan your answer... So, you just say what’s on your mind. Unfiltered, no “political correctness”—just the raw emotions that ran through you.

New Album
Coming November 2024
SUNLIGHT – An invitation to groove and feel alive
Inspired by legends like Bill Withers, The Meters, Parliament, Stevie Wonder, and Marcus Miller, the members of Soul Funk Factory have made it their mission to create melodies that move us, grooves that stick with us, and rhythms that sweep us away. With SUNLIGHT, their new album, they deliver a dose of pure good vibes—each note reflecting their passion for genuine, sun-drenched funk.
Following the success of their 2022 EP ALL WE NEED, the band is back with fresh energy—a sound that’s both mature and focused on what truly matters. SUNLIGHT isn’t just made to make you dance—it carries a message. Beneath the infectious grooves and sharp riffs lie themes that resonate: love, hope, energy, and trust in one another—values that bring us together and shape our life’s journey.

About the Band
Built on strong human values and enriched by the solid experience of its members, the collective creates original compositions where soulful melodies and funk energy serve emotion above all.
In December 2016, thanks to a small ad, Rémy Mukenge (Lead Vocals / Keys) crossed paths with Sébastien Crémades (Bass). “Groove fanatics,” their first jam session marked the birth of the collective, which kept growing with the arrival of Jean Pierre Trento (Drums), Pierre Philippe Fady (Guitar), and Jonathan Remillon (Keys).

Raised on the sounds of legends like Bill Withers, The Meters, Parliament, Stevie Wonder, and Marcus Miller, these passionate musicians are all about one thing: groove, groove, and more groove… Soul Funk Factory draws audiences into their Soul and Funk universe. Influenced by '70s funk and driven by their love of groove, this funky group from Nancy delivers a pure dose of “VIBES.”
A raw vibe—rooted funk, sometimes tinged with blues and jazz. A refined vibe—modern soul that emphasizes melody and feeling. A collective with a unique and unmistakable identity, formed by seasoned musicians with one common goal:
…To share emotion and groove…
