BIOGRAPHY DISCOGRAPHY LINKS

Phil Thompson
Under the moniker of Moonface, Phil Thompson is both a DJ and producer of electronic dance music.

Phil has been into music from the year dot starting off banging out noises on his dads drum kit, this is where his fascination and passion for drums started. He had a long wait to release his passion, this happened with the birth of house music.

After DJing around his local scene in Southampton for some time he finally got his break. Years of continually sending out tracks to labels and Dj’s paid off when Danny Howells (then Bedrock resident) picked up his tracks and started playing them. John Digweed heard his stuff and liked it enough to sign him to Bedrock. Following Danny¹s departure from Bedrock in late 2000 Phil took over the warm up slot, and tracks soon followed. His first track released on Bedrock was 'Futurized Fears' ­ Also featured on Johns Hong Kong G.U. mix. Soon followed by a 6 track mini album 'Between Worlds' which was voted album of the month by several magazines.

His move to Bedrock has given Phil access to a much wider audience playing gigs all over the world, this has enabled Phil to build an ever growing following who appreciate his unique style of deep sound tracks.

Phil is equally at home building the night from the start with his blend of cool, smooth electronic music, to banging it out at the end:

“Ambient through to click house electronica to funky tech house to deep tribal grooves to driving hypnotic beats to tech house to twisted funky techno to trippy after hours to futuristic electronica to global acoustic music to drum and bass to breaks....it’s all in there somewhere!

Phil continues to produce tracks, working in his studio as often as he can pushing forward and developing his sounds, as well as trying to get his head round his equipment. New releases showcasing this new material are planned.

"The love of music never ends, I am able to share this love when DJing bringing new sounds to your ears...."
