Phantom Wizard
Isha Forster
Isha Forster (born 1998) is a composer, multi instrumentalist and producer from Amsterdam working under the alias Phantom Wizard. He releases experimental sounds that exist at the intersection of jazz, ambient, folk and electronic music. Music is his outlet for observations of life, nature and spirituality.
All these elements result in a fusion of electronic and acoustic sounds with composed and improvised sections. Phantom Wizard’s music is a sonification of the feeling that there is more than what we can measure and classify.
Phantom Wizard has been allowed to share his experiments as a solo artist at various festivals and venues in the Netherlands such as Grachtenfestival (2021 & 2022), Supersonic Jazz (2021 & 2022), Oerol (2022) and more. He has also collaborated as a musician with bands and music groups such as Gita Buhari (2018-2020) and Illnoledge (2020-present).
In addition, he has collaborated with international artists such as Roxane Mbanga for her performance during Amsterdam Fashion Week (2022) and Sel Kofiga for his installation at CBK Zuidoost (2022).
