This is a sample track from my next album, the follow up to TREES. Initially based on recordings of people's near death experiences, the overall scope of the work has expanded to include tales of trauma as well as dreams.

Phylr is Jim Filer Coleman. Creatively diverse and/or schizophrenic, the music ranges from machine oriented beat driven mayhem to organic atmospheric ambience, usually settling in the realm of cinematic imagination. 

Historically, Coleman was an integral member of seminal post punk, post industrial band Cop Shoot Cop. He then went on to compose music for indie films and television. He has worked with directors such as Hal Hartley, Todd Phillips, Beth B, and Richard Kern. Coleman has also composed music for series and one - offs for HBO, A&E, Court TV and TLC, among others.

Coleman has released 2 albums under the name Phylr and done numerous remixes (Foetus, Young Gods, Steve Wynn etc). He has collaborated with noted Italian composer Teho Teardo as Here, and with sonic mastermind JG Thirlwell as Baby Zizanie.

He has an on again - off again band in NYC called The Children.

An ambient album entitled Trees will be released under the name Jim Coleman in 2012.
