VA artist PHZ-Sicks ended 2013 on a major note by releasing his latest offering The Moment. The project contains previously reviewed single “Coming Down” as well as 14 other brand new tracks. Additionally there are guest appearances from the likes of: Scolla, Alison Carney, Lyriciss, and more. Producers that added their sound to the collective include: Stompboxx Music, Best Kept Secret, Epik The Dawn, and others.

The spelling and hyphen were all just done for aesthetic purposes.” –PHZ-Sicks (On his stage moniker) / Thought it was high time that readers got to know PHZ-Sicks a little more in depth as they have been exposed to a good variety of his music.
