Moose (AKA Philter)

Style
House and Breaks

Profile
"Moussa Clarke, or Moose as he is better known, is fast becoming one of this city's finest ambassadors on the international clubbing circuit...while here in London you can catch him playing his house and breaks style all over town”
Mo-Shon Magazine, London, 2003

Moose, head honcho over at Oven Ready, has internationalism in the blood – half Senegalese, half English, born in Switzerland, brought up in France then finally winding up in the UK via Austria and Italy. Submerged in music from an early age, he grew up with a melting pot of classical, reggae and pop music around him, and this eclecticism still infuses his feeling for dance music and for music in general. 

His furious mix of house and breaks has taken him to all four corners of the globe over the last 12 years, wowing crowds from Moscow to Almaty to Chicago to Tokyo and back again via Amsterdam, Helsinki, Paris, Llubjana, Prague, Bratislava, Riga, Naples, Dublin and pretty much every major city in Europe. He regularly plays in London, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Tallinn and Copenhagen, and guests at warehouse parties, outdoor events and clubs all over the world.

To add to this he is consummate and prolific producer/remixer, with more than 100 releases under his belt. Under his Philter guise, he is currently rocking dancefloors worldwide on labels such as Presslab, Kinky Vinyl, Phonomental and Xquizit, and his own Oven Ready imprint. No stranger to chart success, he’s entered the UK top 40 no less than 5 times under various guises and production partnerships including Musique vs U2, PF Project and Tzant. Moose's remix credits read like a who's who of dance music, and he's worked on tracks for artists as diverse as Nitin Sawhney, Dave Matthews, Monie Love, Afrika Bambaataa, Phats & Small, Adamski and many more...

Moose’s sound is deliberately varied, global techyfunkybreakyrockyparty choons to ignite any dancefloor, with darker and more mellow soundscapes thrown into the mix – expect a veritable mash-up of bass-heavy styles to pound through your sound system…
