Sosue caught the soulmusic bug in the age of seventeen. After six years of listening to hard bop, funk, souljazz and the rhythm & blues, gospel and soul of atlantic, stax and motown records, Sosue started spinning jazz records at some cocktailbars. The following years she played scores of gigs at different bars and clubs, mostly as a part of the dj-collective of the Berlin based label Hamton Recordings. Since emerging on the club scene, her musical category extended to seventies soul, deep funk, boogie, disco and oldschool hiphop.

1999 Sosue studied photoengineering and mediatechnology at the University of Applied Science and made a media certificate at the school of audio engineering in Cologne. After leaving University in 2004, Sosue decided to focus mainly on her musical career. She started producing beats, remixing and re-editing music to enrich her dj-sets and spends time learning to play the drums. Meanwhile Sosue's musical interests embed contemporary music as well. Her DJ-sets combine many different forms of music preferably far removed from mainstream. Housemusic, Afrobeat, conscious HipHop, electrofunk, contemporary Jazz and Soul are on equal terms with all that vintage stuff she has been socialized with.

2006 Sosue teamed up with Phil Kullmann - percussionist, producer and founder of the dancemusic project Raw Artistic Soul - and founded an independant record label called Raw Artistic Records. Currently she plays a monthly dj-set for the GOGO Music Radioshow and has been part of the GOGO Music DJ-team at their labelparty at WMC 07 in Miami. Sosue is working on her first own releases under the name Soulkomplex productions with different musicians for the time being.
