Phalo Pantoja – Essential Selection

Phalo's music is special. He has the skill to create a moody atmospheric world with his sounds, where he is the perfect tour guide to show you around. His world is multifarious, spanning dark regions to summertime esplanades.

Phalo gears up with an arsenal of analog machines to direct his own acoustic movie based on cinematic influenced samples, ambient sounds and crunchy drums.

Get your ticket and explore his world.

Essential Selection: Is a tour of 12 carefully selected tracks taken from Phalo's earlier creations.

Phalo Bio:
Phalo Pantoja was born in 1922. He spent his youth in the old streets of Saint-Denis, near Paris.
He already worked with many artists like John Robinson, Shabaam Sahdeeq, Ruste Juxx, Sav Skillz, Mindsone...for the US and Jean jass & Caballero, Hugo Delire, Lucio Buckowski, Daddy Lord C, Nob da Rootsnegg, Daz ini for the France.

In 1991, he began to sharpen his writing after he listened to a friend rapping on a “Saxo” joint. His obsession for rap started at this moment, while he was watching the French classic Rap TV shows such as Sidney’s “Hiphop” or Rapline on M6 Channel. This Spanish Peruvian rapping French froggy has been influenced by most American artists :
Pete Rock, A Tribe Called Quest, Primo, Spinna, Jaydee (RIP)…

His addiction to crunchy sounds pushed him to use more and more vinyl samples and to use old vintage musical keyboards such as Prophet, Minimoog, Jupiter and Matrix synths, a long time before the hype for vintage gears crossed the street, leaving the sidewalks garbage to high end music shops racks…

He also wanted to make a tribute to his influences because he thinks that a good artist must be proud and unbeatable about his roots.
„Knowledge and culture are the biggest weapons of creation, that’s why Jazz, Soul and Funk will never be old school”.
