(Phil Von is a French artist born 1961 in Paris; flamenco dancer, singer, performer & composer, Phil Von originated the group Von Magnet in London in1985. With Von Magnet he
released a dozen of
records mixing world music, flamenco, theatre & electronic music. As
a solo artist he writes "made to measure" music for ballet,
contemporary dance, art & theatre.
Phil’s dream is to write poetry with electronic sounds instead of words.
For the last 30 years his endeavours have been directed to achieving
that goal. Being a performer, actor and dancer as well as an electronic
music composer, his approach to music writing is quite peculiar as it
always seeks an “audio dramaturgy”, a “scenic structure” or a “cinematic
sculpture”. He feels that music should somehow belong to a “bigger
picture” where all arts are combined.
He also cherishes a more organic
perception of electronics, hoping to push machines closer to humanity
and to nature. Many of the pieces on his albums have been used by
choreographers, visual artists and stage directors. They have shaped
their own artistic visions with their interpretations of his imaginary
materials. This is how he envisages and encourages the reincarnations of
his music through different lives).
