Phil Reid has been immersed in the trance scene and behind the decks for over 25 years. What began as a deep love for music and the craft of DJing has evolved into a lifelong passion- one he proudly channels through Sunset, the brand he founded to celebrate authenticity and connection through sound.

Starting out in the UK, Phil made his mark as the founder of Sunset, a monthly trance night that became a staple of North West England’s underground circuit. Now based in Newcastle, Australia, he brings his sound to a wider audience as a guest on Kiss FM Australia and also through his mix series, Sunset Sessions- where he shares progressive, emotive, melodic, and high-energy sets that stay true to the music.

For Phil, Sunset represents more than just a name- it’s a mission and a stand against an industry increasingly driven by an Instagram image, where it is more important to be seen than heard. Sunset is a return to what truly matters: the music, the energy, the journey. His sets span progressive builds, uplfifting, melodic and beyond- each one carefully curated.

Sunset has grown into a platform that celebrates diverse sounds while staying true to its underground roots.

Some mixes are solo explorations, others are shared, with guest DJs from around the world who bring their own sound, style, and story to the mix.

Phil is always on the lookout for new collaborators who share that same love for the music to feature on Sunset Sessions. If that’s you, get in touch- he’d love to hear your sound!
