Phil Morland Studio Musician
I am a songwriter, lyricist and music producer working in the Smooth Jazz, Neo Soul, Quiet Storm and Lovers Rock genres. I mostly write gentle, mid-tempo songs with expressive, heartfelt lyrics.​
I create my songs using Virtual Studio Technology and VSTi instruments. This way of making music provides many advantages over older analogue methods. Thousands of instruments are available and each instrument can be infinitely modified to create a unique sound. Traditional instruments that would be unrealistic to use due to cost or rarity are available at the VST producer's fingertips, allowing novel and innovative music to be explored.
​​
For me, one of the most enjoyable tasks when creating a song is writing the lyrics. Unfortunately, I have not been blessed with a decent singing voice so I use VSTi vocal instruments as an alternative. My intention is not to diminish the unique sound of a professional singer, rather to give people the chance to hear how the song and lyrics come together, given my own non-existent vocal abilities.
