Terrence Parker is the owner of Tangible Records and of Ninja-level djing skills that few posses, especially within the world of house music. He is probably mostly known for his famous anthem Love's Got Me High which always, ALWAYS gets the crowd up, even to this day. He was recently caught wearing a HOUSEPITALITY hoodie after his now-legendary Boiler Room set so we decided that was a sign of all signs that he betta come rock the Housepit, once and for all.
Him and our co-founder MICHAEL TELLO became homies after he played his bday party in NYC and since then it has just on like donkey kong. Since I got my wheels dressed and oiled up in Detroit's underground I can't think of a better artist to come and drop that unreal flavor and skill at the Pit.
My brotha from anotha brown motha MICHAEL TELLO is flying in to open up this piece and my otha brotha JP SOUL is going to return to the lounge for the nth time and reproduce his usual groovin' beatdown for the heads back there.... Its time for serious JACKIN' as TERRENCE PARKER aka TELEPHONE MAN pumps soul into the Housepit.
Oh yeah we did.
WE GOT YOU.

Michael Tello
Michael Tello was born in Los Angeles California in 1978. The son of Latino parents with an eclectic taste in music, he was exposed to a wide variety of music, ranging from the tribal rhythms of South America to the cutting edge, electronic sounds of the early 1980's. At age 12, Michael's dad purchased a DJ set up with turntables, mixer & microphone and asked him to hook it all up. Michael had found a new interest and love for the art of DJing. He began experimenting with his mom and dads Disco, Salsa and Funk 12” records and 45’s. Michael has also been producing and playing music for over 20 years. A audio engineer who has the distinct ability towards sonic perfection.
PillowTalk member and producer, Michael Tello’s contribution to this amazing San Francisco trio has helped create a new way to transform their infectious tracks into a full live experience. With their debut album “Je Nes Sais Quoi” on New York label Wolf + Lamb, touring live and Djing around the globe PillowTalk are a band to follow in 2014.
Now calling Brooklyn, New York home he is staying busy in the studio along with managing two tour schedules and two business. He is grateful and humbled by the opportunity to do what he loves and share his music and creative vision with his family, friends and the world.

JP Soul
San Francisco dj, producer, and label boss at Roam Recordings and part time lover with the 40 Thieves.
JP Soul started djing high-school dances and house parties in the 80s. The gear he used was primitive - tape decks, cd players, and an old record player with no pitch control - but early on he developed a knack for working a dancefloor.
In the 90s JP picked up a pair of Technic 1200s and soon after he was regularly djing at raves around the East Coast, Mid-West, and Canada. He also started hosting underground parties and a weekly club event in Buffalo that brought in artists such as Robbie Hardkiss, Dubtribe, Corey Black (from 40 Thieves), Onionz, and many other out-of-town and local acts. After finishing school in Buffalo, JP Soul moved to San Francisco to rejoin friend and dj partner Chad Mitchell for a weekly residency at a popular dj bar in the Mission district called Liquid.
At the same time, in the early 2000s, JP Soul and Chad Mitchell started the Roam Recordings record label and released their own music along with now familiar names like Justin Martin, Joshua/DJ IZ, Sammy D (from Pillow Talk), Demarkus Lewis, Lance DeSardi, Hesohi, and Rhythm Plate. The label ran 12 releases before taking a break in the mid 2000s. JP also took a little break at this time to work, travel, and do some soul searching. Realizing that life was missing something, JP started djing again. Mostly at dirty disco parties around San Francisco. Djing lead back to the studio and life is complete again.
At the present when JP Soul is not in the studio he can be found djing around SF at clubs such as Monarch, F8, and Hawthorne.
