05 — ABOUT

Two Philippes.
One shared vision.

Ph2 was born in 1988 when Philippe Mercier — drums and percussion — met Philippe Moati — guitars, bass and keyboards. Genesis, Yes and Peter Gabriel opened the way; Prokofiev, Shostakovich and Stravinsky broadened the horizon.

The studio became their main instrument: a space for composing original, versatile and deeply expressive music.
