Coming first to everyone's attention with the release of his debut album Identification in 2005, Phonique quickly established himself as a DJ and producer at the forefront of techy, electronic club music. His most recent album, 'Good Idea' saw the man known as Michael Vater to his friends deliver 2 CD's worth of material, neatly divided between club sounds, and more laid back songs for home listening. With a number of very well received 12" releases Phonique is continuing to cement his position as one of the most exciting producers around.
