Today’s guest is Philo Tsoungui…an independent drummer based in Berlin, Germany. If you don’t already know, one of my duties at Big Fat Snare Drum is Artist Relations. On one of my first days witht he company, Philo received my first endorsement offer. It was so immediately obvious to me that Philo was going to be a tastemaker for years to come and it’s still an honor to see our gear behind that kit. Philo has played with so many acts including Chefket, Mine, Fatoni, Mal Eleve, Elif, and Lxandra. I honestly can’t say enough about Philo’s playing; it just works. You can lump it into the Hip Hop category, but it’s so much more than any one genre…as you’ll find out in this episode. I have been looking forward to chatting Philo for a long time so this was definitely special. Please enjoy the top 5 influences that shaped the amazing, Philo Tsougnui. Cheers!
