Phaeleh Biography
Since his debut release in 2008, Matt Preston aka Phaeleh has developed an inimitable style of cinematic electronic music, which floats between the shifting tempos and timbres of dubstep, garage, electronica and house music. Following the release of the ambient albums ‘Somnus’ (2014) and ‘Illusion of the Tale’ (2016), Phaeleh drops his first beat-driven long player since ‘Tides’ (2013).
‘Lost Time’ sees the Bristol based producer showcase his production versatility and diverse range of influences. It features the atmospheric sub heavy melodies Phaeleh is traditionally known for, alongside the vintage synthesisers and field recordings of his recent ambient albums, all with an increased use of live instrumentation as a result of rekindling his love of guitars and other instruments through his live shows from recent years. On 'Feel You Fade' Phaeleh is joined by singer Augustus Ghost who previously featured on ‘Whistling in the Dark’ and toured with Phaeleh in 2013.
2016 saw Preston returning from what he describes as 'a few years lost within the music industry abyss' with the ‘All That Remains’ EP released on his own Undertow label, along with remixes for Cloud Boat (Born Electric) and Roger Goula (Cognitive Shift). This was followed with a North American tour, ending with a headline performance at Sonic Bloom festival in Colorado. His return to the UK involved the release of his critically acclaimed ambient album 'Illusion of the Tale' which was supported with two sold out live shows in London and Bristol, alongside some select DJ performances.
“Rarely do you find a producer who can completely stop you in your tracks, utterly immersing you in the beauty of their creation” Clash
“His take on the Bristol sound – weighty bass and cinematic atmospherics – pushes dubstep, garage, house, even ambience into adventurous territory” Red Bull
“Beautifully and expertly crafted, his club music touches on a variety of strands of UK culture, from dubstep and bass to the jazzier tones of Four Tet and Floating Points” Truants
“Never standing still Phaeleh has taken influence from a range of genres and continues to explore the realm of possibilities within sound” Ransom Note
"Focuses less on the denture-rattling, seismic bass drops and more on texture, space and melody" Mojo
“Oozes quality” The Guardian
“Absolutely gorgeous stuff” Mixmag
