A LITTLE STORY: Hi, my name is Philippe Nowak, I was born on the 28th of March 1975 in Mulhouse (France). I play the guitar since I was twelve years old, my first one was an acoustic, a cheap one. Under influences of rock guitarsts, I started electric guitar at fifteen.
I recorded my first demo tapes at eighteen with a Tascam four tracks recorder, given by the boss of the music shop I worked.
I worked as guitars seller, guitar teacher, sound assistant for a rehersal studio and sound engineer in a recording studio and wrote some articles and tutorials about home studio recording for a french magazine.
I played with some bands for fun, and jammed with different musicians. I also played in the streets and in some pubs. I produce and record my tracks, playing all instruments in my home studio. I launched out in the self-production of my first instrumental album in 2008:
