Originally from London, Phil Mossman's music career began as a member of Andrew Weatherall's electronic visionaries The Sabres of Paradise. Phil was later recruited by Belfast's David Holmes, to collaborate on various remixes (U2, Manic Street Preachers, Primal Scream and Jon Spencer Blues Explosion). Holmes' cinematic influences soon caught the attention of Hollywood's heavy hitters, and the Holmes team was whisked off to LA to score Stephen Soderbergh's 1998 classic "Out Of Sight."

At the turn of the millennium, Phil found himself in New York working on two highly influential records, David Holmes', "Bow Down To The Exit Sign," and Primal Scream's, "XTRMNTR," at the brand new Plantain Studios which is now the legendary home to James Murphy's DFA. When Phil moved to NYC in 2001, Murphy invited him to join the newly minted outfit, LCD Soundsystem. After six years with LCD, Phil made the tough decision to quit touring save for the occasional cameo such as the "Shut Up and Play the Hits," documentary at Madison Square Garden.

A prolific film composer, Phil has scored thirteen full length features including a slew of Sundance hits such as Mike Cahill's "Another Earth," and "IOrigins," Jim Mickel's "We Are What We Are," Jon Watts' "Cop Car," staring Kevin Bacon, Michael Thelin's, "Emelie," and most recently the Netflix original, "Mercy."
