I am a Sound Designer, Producer and Music Composer currently based in Perth, Western Australia. Originally from Malaysia, I developed an interest in music from a young age and it inspired me to pick up the guitar, eventually becoming a guitar instructor by my late teens.

Relocating to Perth in 2002, I also began to start composing my own songs, performing with bands live and recording music. In the last few years of high school I picked up art, media and drama studies, where the application of these skills in film and drama broadened my tastes in the audio field.

Between the years of 2004 - 2006, I studied and graduated from the Western Australian Academy Of Performing Arts in the field of Sound. My experience there includes numerous live design & live mixing of WAAPA Jazz Graduates as well as sound design, engineering and operation for WAAPA Musical Theatre & Acting and the WA Screen Academy. My time there also provided invaluable work experience opportunities at Sound Mine Studios, ABC News and Double G Post Production in Perth; and Limestone Studio, Electric Avenue Studios and Turtlerock Mastering in Sydney.

I gained a decade’s worth of experience as part of the team at University Of Western Australia’s University Theatres, where I designed and operated numerous plays & performances, including a tenure as the Head Of Sound at the University Of Western Australia’s School Of Music. During this time, I freelanced in music recording, sound design, post-production & composition for film and games at my personal studio, Spicy Horse Games, Amusia Studios and Anthophobic Records.

Boasting a wide range of recording experience; genre & instrument wise, I have worked on various styles ranging from classical to metal, jazz to electronic. I am proficient in various forms of digital sound technology - this includes digital audio workstations, software instruments and audio plugins; as well as playing guitar, bass and drums.

Having grown up as a musician on a strict regime of organic death metal, funk and jazz from the likes of Death, Mr. Big and Stanley Clarke, Voortrekker was drawn to obscure, weighty sounds accompanied by complex rhythmic percussion. It only made sense that he would later draw on these genres after falling in love with drum n bass and producing it.
