During the Q&A section, I asked about how the transition to streaming music for free has affected the artists ability to pay their bills and forcing a heavy reliance on touring and merchandise sales. While it has created more independent artists than ever before, I wanted to know if this is a sustainable business model. The general consensus with the group is that we just don’t know. We are in an unknown territory with the music industry. There is no true and set way to succeed. One thing that is true is that this model has made people want to know more about the music they are listening to.

Phillip was raised on so many different genres of music, it has given him a unique perspective into the ever evolving music scene. Trance music began defining his life at the young age of 14, but thoroughly enjoys any type of music equally. He sees the music as an escape from the daily doldrums of life and says music can change a persons life in an instant pulling from his own experiences. His only goal in life is to share wonderful music with people and take electronic music to a higher plain with more accountability and creating a safer environment for his friends.
