ABOUT YOUR GUIDE

Quddus Philippe is a shamanic guide and the founder of Sound Sanctuary. He is a multi-instrumentalist who leads transformational psychedelic journeys and trains other practitioners through Sound Sanctuary Academy. Before walking this spiritual path, Quddus built a successful career in music and media —from his start as a campus radio DJ to hosting MTV's iconic show Total Request Live where TIME Magazine named him "one of pop culture's foremost tastemakers." 

After leaving MTV and serving as a creative director at Myspace, he was inspired to launch The Creator Incubator to help other creatives develop and launch their dream projects. His path shifted after a divorce and a deeper reckoning with success. Sound became the doorway back to himself. Through years of study with master teachers in sound and the shamanic arts, Quddus transformed his personal breakdown into a path of deeper service. Today, he guides others through immersive experiences that awaken clarity and a higher calling.
