Here is a broad selection of songs and remixes I've made .. enjoy!

sample of works

Live Recording of a song I made one night at Garrthalala (homeland in NE Arnhem Land) playing to a large group of kids with famous didg player Mark Hoffman of eMDee.  enjoy with dancing boots!  oh btw they like it even faster in Arnhem Land but I thought 154 bpm was a good start!  Unfortunately I didn't record my flute and cimbalom tracks..  maybe i'll overdub it and turn it into a shorter radio edit


Garrthalala Shuffle feat. Mark Hoffman

Welcome to a massive rework of a massive tune: Jekks & Priests of Heka track Supulchre of Solomon Pt. II - Symbols of the Inner Rings (https://soundcloud.com/jekks/sepulchre-of-solomon-part-ii) 
Because both Jekks & I work in Ableton Live,  I was able to get right into the parts and recompose instrument lines and extract themes as well as reduce the tempo by about 30bpm.  The existing samples were dope, but I also recorded some flute and bass synth and added some sneaky western strings into the piece.  Please enjoy and spread the love!  We do this shiz live so if you want something special at your next event give us a tingle!

Swamp Hop (Remix)

A sneaky song starting with a sample from a song called House of Four Doors by the Moody Blues.  Building around the original I then drop it out leaving a newly composed skeleton which I then added live recording of a jam at a performance with my other band Heart Tribe.  It's a dynamic thing in the live situation when I play it on Ableton Live, plus I've left plenty of space for the live flute and cimbalom (52-stringed zither) I play over it + drum kit and guitar from Mic.. 
Peace,
ava

OZ Shift - Macropod live mix @ Bellingen River Festival

AvaDub explores where electronica fuses with live performance and composition meets improvisation with bone shaking bass and knob tweaking mixed in for the win.  Lush soundscapes with live flute touch the spirit while the sexy basslines reach deep.  Ava is the Persian word for good melody which is well reflected in all aspects of his music. The music is progressive and seamlessly intertwined, this is journey music with the fresh spark of musician who expressing his soul. Lush effects and live synth finish the soundscape off while special shows see the inclusion of the cimbalom;   a 52-stringed instrument from the Middle-East.

Ava is a combination of artist, techie, performer, mathematician and musician.  He started composing 17 years ago with text based computer sequencing and that interest grew until he had a degree in music composition under his belt!  
Moving to more secluded realms in the bush led to a different form of creativity; instrument making.  After years in the bush he finally crafted the world's first chromatic bamboo flute, a flute with the lilting emotive quality of wood fused with the versatility of the silver flute.  He also emerged with an old 52-stringed Cimbalom which produces a sweet resonance, clear and vibrant under Ava’s practiced fingers.
During the era of electro ska band, Heart Tribe, he constructed his ridiculously elaborate setup that routed his flute, cimbalom, xio-synth and vocals through his chunky sound card & beaten up lappie full to the brim with effects.  Ava is now infusing life into his electronica with this live setup.  The resulting sound is both powerful and peaceful - well suited to large sound systems and beat hungry dancers that wish to be filled with evocative frequencies.
