Ryan Parmer aka Phasen was born in Orlando, Florida in 1989 as the Acid House scene in the UK was kicking off and Detroit techno was spreading across Europe like wildfire. During high school, Parmer, was introduced to electronica acts such as Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin, and Tycho. He immediately fell in love with all forms of electronica, and soon began recording himself playing guitar on old tape players. Born and raised in a Digital age Permer developed a DIY ethic and he focused on producing a more chilled-out, mellow brand of music, with occasional excursions into the realms of house, ambient,glitch, and dance genres.He co-owns [Unnamed Label]Records with Mark.Nine and Five Step Path and has been slowly developing his reputation with releases on Unmaned and various remixes for people like Lex Loofah (Warp), Mick Chillage, Lackluster (deFocus, Merck), Tony Craig (DXR) and Nachklangmusik (DXR). Phasen is a young, fresh artist with a sound quality of a mature, relaxed man. His sound is mostly ambient, very abstract and quite expiremental; however, he thrives on subtle grooves, hypnotic beats and truly emotive music. Gainesville started off as a single. it then became huge remix project alngoside Parmer's work on an album and somewhere in the middle of the creative process Gainesville the mini album of original music and the mini album of remixes fused to become the first artist album on DXR and Phasen's long playing debut for DXR, which we all agree at DXR is a wonderful outcome of collaboration, originality and quality sound architecture. Gainesville's surpsie is the sheer maturity of sound that Parmer has reached in such a short time. Working with Enda Rochford and Desy Balmer for 12 months and collaborating with Mick Chillage and Tim Trebout etc. has definately had a positive impact and Permer's approach which is al good for your listening pleasure.
