Music
Pawel Filip Osmolski (born May 12, 1983) is an English composer and child prodigy. He started composing on the piano at the age of 7, and was also writing music on the Commodore Amiga computer using MOD Tracker software.
He currently writes and performs his own songs under the stage name Filip Oscar, which he used to launch his first studio album Raven White.
During his teens, he became fascinated with learning the Acoustic/Electric guitar, Bass guitar and Drums, which led him to progress onto MIDI and Audio workstations such as Avid Pro Tools and Steinberg Cubase.
His musical family meant that he grew up listening to, and playing all kinds of music, developing strong song-writing individualism and instrumental flexibility. He is an improviser at heart, being able to create melodies and sounds without the need of any significant influence or stimulus.
Web Design
Pawel is highly skilled with WordPress, Laravel, PHP, HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. He has spent over a decade working with strong design and development teams, managing over 100 websites covering finance, law, energy, real estate and transport sectors across the UK, US and Asia.
He shows careful attention to detail, often adding considerable value to the final product in order to positively enhance user experience.
His background with music, video and corporate design gives him a unique edge, allowing him to fit into almost any creative environment.

Sound Design
Pawel was taught privately by a professor of music whilst he attended secondary school, but eventually took his skills further by studying for an Advanced Diploma at The Guitar Institute & Basstech, then for a Bachelor of Arts and Master's degree in Music Technology.
He’s the kind of guy that will say "Bass-boost is only for parties" and "Can I get that in 24-bit please?"
His preferred guitars used for playing live and recording are the Fender Vista Venus, Squier Classic Vibe Telecaster '50s, Squier Classic Vibe Stratocaster '50s and a Tanglewood TW-115AS acoustic.
Remix
Pawel gained recognition in the media from his well-received remixes of Radiohead’s unreleased material, and was listed in the Q Magazine, MTV News, and had an exclusive article printed in the NME.
He is also known for his contributions to the Remix64 community and Chiptune scene, which were done out of his love for 8-bit music and the Commodore 64 home computer.
Pawel goes by the names, FILIP OSCAR, DeViLhoOD and Star Paw, as pseudonyms for releasing his own solo material.
Prior to going solo, he was the lead singer-songwriter and producer for the London based indie band CrunchAlias. He also works on film and video game projects through his creative agency Crown & Craft.
