Was such a dream to play live for ELEVATE @melbjazzfestival curated by the amazing @mikegurrieri 🥁 @joshkellymusic was transcendental, @middlenamedanceband proved they are the 🐐party band and @jazzycatlady @djjnett and Mike brought their impeccable selections all night. This night really made me feel so blessed to be a part of the scene we have here in Naarm, the crossover between Jazz & Electronic sounds. To bounce off the energy of everyone’s music together in the one room was something truly special x

A little @nikbaertsch inspired shaker ritual in this pre-spring sun to celebrate my first gig in a while and the first time playing the Ritual Music record in my hometown! 

Elevate curated by the amazing @mikegurrieri 21st Oct @toffintown Naarm as part of @melbjazzfestival 

After spending most of my time lately riding my bike (inspiration and zen of different kind) working and studying I was beginning to wonder when the inspiration would return…but after Mike asked me to be a part of this night the musical gods have begun delivering again in small snippets here and there that have really lit the fire inspiring some new sounds and the desire to play a show! Looking forward to channeling this energy and flow alongside @joshkellymusic (EP Launch) & @middlenamedanceband and 3 of my all time favourite DJ’s Shio aka @jazzycatlady @djjnett and @mikegurrieri Jazz Dance til late!

Sometimes it just takes one thing to open yourself up to receiving what the musical ether has for you. Tix link in my bio 🙌🏻 Much love to you all x taken in Naarm by @christopherport

Feeling incredibly honoured to have been asked by @apaulmac to work on an updated version of his iconic track 'Just The Thing' for the 20th anniversary of it's release.

Paul called me up a while ago and said he wanted to do a new version of the track. We chatted about possible directions it could take and the energy he wanted to create. I've know Paul for a while now so I felt like we were very much on the same wavelength.

Paul sent through the original stems and I started playing around with lots of drum ideas and some blending of percussion and melodic stuff. We sent stuff back and forth over the next little while. Once I heard the piano riff section he'd done towards the end I knew it was done!

I'm so proud of the track and feel so blessed to know Paul and to get to work on this with him.

Much love to Paul for having me on board and to his team for bringing it all together

Today I’m so excited to release ‘Ritual Remixes’ featuring three incredible remixes from @allysha_joy @setwun & @tenbrains 🎉 OUT NOW (link in bio) 

I feel so incredibly honoured to have these 3 incredible artists remix my work. After having remixed many artists myself this is the first time I’ve had others remix my tracks. It was such an incredible, truly emotional and spiritual experience. 

Big shout to @pieaterpieater and @futureclassic for putting these beautiful works out into the world! 

Love and light to you all 💜x by @christopherport

It’s @bandcamp day! Which means Bandcamp are waiving their fees for 24 hrs and all profits go directly to the artists. Head to the link in my bio to grab a copy of Ritual Music on wax. There’s also some slipmats with beautiful artwork by @mc_wall_art 💜Also, it was such an honour to have Prayer featured as the opening track on this weeks Bandcamp Weekly 🙌🏻 an essential listen for people wanting to discover new music. While other platforms are finding ways to pay artists even less, Bandcamp are leading the way in supporting artists with real tangible steps to make a life in music sustainable. Big up Bandcamp 🙌🏻 by @christopherport
