Phil Agosta is Detroit's New Generation of Sound.
Biography
Detroit is so well known for its unique brand of electronic music and the creation of Techno, that the term ‘Techno’ is rarely mentioned without being preceded by the name of the City itself. That said there’s one man, named Phil Agosta, who is intent on pursuing a “new sound of Detroit”.
Instrumental beats made a very early impression on Phil’s life. He became a percussionist, at the age of 5 and studied music from the age of 7, straight through to college, with the emphasis being placed on Jazz & Fusion. 

So determined to make a name for himself and to develop his own take on the Detroit sound, Phil began honing his skills on turntables at some of the Motor City's hottest nightclubs of that time. Most notably; Taboo, Cheeks, Motor Lounge, Bleu & Club Hollywood amongst the many popular Nightclubs that would come and go, in Detroit. Yet, like so much of Detroit’s DJ talent, he would eventually migrate to Chicago's thriving and storied late-80s and 90s house music scene, moving the crowd at legendary hotspots such as Excalibur, China Club and Industry.
Like many artists, the pull of responsibility and pressure to fit into society beckoned and Phil found himself in the professional world. So, with his entertainment industry experience, he went into ‘Events Marketing’, working with an array of clients from the NFL players to brands such as CART, Unlimited Hydroplanes and notable others. At the same time, he would play only for special events. However, in 2002, Phil decided that he needed to follow his passion and he immersed himself into music once again.

He has worked with a plethora of Detroit Legends such as; Juan Atkins, Jeff Mills, Kenneth Thomas, Stacey Pullen, Stacey ‘Hotwax’ Hale, Mike Huckaby, Mike Clark, Rick Wade, DJ Godfather and ‘Techno pioneer’, 
Kevin Saunderson, (he is currently an artist on Saunderson's KMS label).
Phil’s unique sound, is subtle yet densely layered with bass and percussion, that is reminiscent of 80’s ‘old-skool’ and Detroit ‘electronica’. It’s a little bit street and a little bit Kraftwerk, with a sexy kind of groove, which curiously sounds more “right now” in this era than the “back in the day” of its inspiration.
His "Tribute to Detroit" EP was released on Chicago’s KGBeats label, in June 2010. However, not just content with being a DJ and Producer, Phil is also making a name for himself in the world of remixing, having remixed “Cream” (which is currently on I-Tunes, Amazon.com and YouTube) by Carmit Bashar (formerly of the Pussycat Dolls fame). 

His latest musical outing is “Lonely”, which sees him team up with Detroit songstress Lisa Cunningham (PKA La Rae Starr). “Lonely” is on Defected Records which topped the charts at #10 in July 2013. This native Detroiter has a bright future ahead.
