ABOUT

Phil has been a musician for most of his life. His main interest’s are playing & performing bass guitar and classical guitar, he has a passion to share his knowledge with others through tutoring. He is an accomplished music composer, arranger, producer, and sound designer. He has worked with many different bands and ensemble’s covering many music genres, as a session musician & for a service within the community. Phil enjoys all music, but his favourites are jazz, funk, classical, and metal. His great passion was his time with heavy metal band Fearscape, where he toured, composed songs & recorded two studio albums.

He completed a Bachelor of music at Western Sydney university, as well as music performance at Ultimo College of TAFE. While studying, Phil expanded upon his interest’s into music and the mind & investigated the microscopic world of sound hidden within other sounds. He now studies and researchers within the field of Acoustic Ecology, investigating the effects of music & sound on mental & physical health, & the influence of the environment. By observing this micro world through a musical lens, Phil hopes to uncover ways to help other autistic people and those struggling with disabilities to create a much more compatible environment. This passion stems from Phil's own unique way of perceiving music through Synesthesia. A world of sound seen as colours, Creating music is like painting the music of the heart on a transparent canvas.

Influences

My favourite genre is close to original Evanescence, but love the depth of the orchestra. I spent many years performing in metal bands, I now compose and arrange orchestral music. I also have a love for funk and jazz. My passion in my own musical creation is to combine my two main influences, metal and orchestral music. Heavy guitar and drums with melody with depth, while capturing the complex rhythms & syncopation of funk & jazz.
