Matthew "Matt" Preston, professionally known Phaeleh (pronounced "fella") is a multi-instrumentalist, producer and DJ residing in Bristol, England. He has stated that his performing name has no specific meaning.[4]
He produces music that could be loosely described as cinematic electronica, but his roots are in dubstep, garage and house.[4] He describes it as "electronic bass music" with a heavy emphasis on melody and emotional content.[5] His main inspirations are Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin, LTJ Bukem, Global Communication and Brian Eno.[6] His compositions combine live instrumentation and electronic production.[7]
