This one originally came out on Nine Meditations for Dulcimer, but I had it in B minor there. Still, the tuning is the familiar DAD

Project RESIDUE is about escaping the ordinary world we all live in ,and finding something new, somewhere else our own world where MUSIC is all we need . Thank you for letting me be a part of your journey !   Luv2All !!!

I'm a one-man music laboratory -- mostly centered around the electric and acoustic mountain dulcimer, which I make myself in my workshop in South East Ohio, and more often these days in Wooster, which is Northeast Ohio.

I'm currently working with the aspects of the mountain dulcimer which tend to calm and soothe -- though I go through strong reactionary cycles now and again, when I have had enough of the meditative stuff. Sometimes this takes the form of wild filter-synched electronica, and sometimes it is more bluesy.

My music contains many influences, with Celtic music being the primary one most of the time. I've always been an improviser, and I have had some formal jazz training (Ohio State WI-89 BA Music), though I'm not a jazz musician by any stretch. 

I love working with extremely simple, circular chord progressions: those progressions that seem to go on for hours and are hard to stop playing. There is a strong minimalist vibe to this.

I also love the DRONE which is one of the most appealing aspects of the mountain dulcimer. These days, I tend more toward arpeggiating the open drone strings of the dulcimer, rather than the more strident strummed drone typical of the more traditional styles of playing.

Composer/Producer blending folk melodies with neoclassical vibes, and cinematic verve, my work is a mix of original compositions and contemporary arrangements of traditional tunes.  I hope you enjoy the music! 

Philleann (pronouced PHILLY-ENN) is a mash up of my name Phil and one of the instruments I play, the Uilleann Pipes.  I also play the Whistle and Accordion.

I'm a Brit now residing in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I'm also a member of Bellow Bridge a traditional celtic folk band.

Thank You 4 Filling my World with Music :)

Dear listener, Feel free to leave comments and I'll try to reply.

I've been making music for around 16 years now but because of the wonderfully generous community that is SC, I have learned so much in a short time. I look forward to learning even more by collaborating. 
I suppose my strengths are in lyric-writing and singing. I feel fortunate to have been able to work with some stunning compositions by some very talented SCers.

My very best to you, Mark
