☼ BIO ☼

Deep in the jungle hinterlands of Byron Bay, a Rainbird hatched, embarking on an exploration of how music affects the brain in a collective environment - for instance, a dancefloor.

Rainbird is a boundless experimental 4x4 project, blending psychedelia with a fresh new age twist throughout hefty basslines with snappy tendencies, falling somewhere in between bush techno, prog, house and glitch hop.

After years working with Zenon Records, Kalya Scintilla’s Merkaba Music and Smoke Sign’s Werk It Music, Rainbird is now a core member of the Stone Seed family, spearheading the Australian bush techno movement. From his acclaimed Naturalist, Naturalist Remixed and Cicada EPs (Stone Seed) through to The Inquisitor (Perfect Stranger’s Digital Structures imprint) and Desiderata Remix (Canada’s Techgnosis Records), Rainbird has proven his position on the forefront of the outdoor music contemporary culture.

Originally performing at doofs and festivals with all original DJ/live sets at just 16 years old, Rainbird has evolved into a regular and favoured performer at Splendour In The Grass, Rabbits Eat Lettuce & Bohemian Beatfreaks, whilst also gracing Esoteric, Mushroom Valley, Subsonic Music Festival, Origins of Entropy, and all corners of the country.

Unable to contain his creativity to just one guise, Rainbird pioneers two other projects of equal musical genius: Organic Distortion (progressive psytrance project signed to Iboga Records and Alien Records) and Square Eyes (DNB / dubstep).

The Cymatic Empire are energetic beings that come from a dimension of sound and light. They have been summoned by the collective consciousness to battle dark energies that threaten Gaia and the life she supports. They have manifest themselves into the physical form to communicate with humans in the universal language of music and dance. Through this medium, they will transmit secret codes to listeners. When enough people have received these codes a gateway between worlds will open letting in the legion of cymatic forces to vanquish the evil that has plagued humanity for millennia.

Økapi is Filippo Paolini, an Italian turntablist and sample cutup artist. Filippo has recorded several solo albums, as well as recording in the duo Metaxu and with the trio Dogon. He has performed live for national Italian State radio broadcasts (RAI) with renowned avant-turntablist, Christian Marclay and collaborates with numerous international artists such as Mike Cooper, Peter Brotzmann, Mike Patton, Matt Gustafson, Zu, Damo Suzuki, Andy EX, Kawabata Makoto, Metamkine…
            ØKapi's album releases illustrate his unique and edgy use of turntables and computer beyond the hip-hop school of chopped up music, creating music that veers from orchestral to lounge with quirky experimental electronics that maintain a delicate and spacious sound throughout.

            His amazing skills at sample mixing are simply outstanding and during Okapi live sets he mixes: techno/broken beat/electro-/8-bit with melodies from Klezmer, polka, children's music, idiot pop and hawaiian classics to name but a few.....

      ----------------------------------------

            The Økapi is a mammal which was only discovered in 1901 by an acousmatic engineer. It lives wild in the forest of the Itur Region in Upper Zaire. It was named the Okapia Johnstoni and it also commonly known as the "Daft Giraffe of the Forest". One of its strangest characteristics is that it is the only known mammal to wash out its own ears with its tongue: just to catch the weird melodies of nature! He adores those ferocious and vindictive chants that make him sway like ... and he fights relentlessly for the domination and hegemony of incorrect and unlistenable music. He hates talking about music and certain music purists of the Forest are definitely not his friends! In recent years he has played for Dogon tribal rituals and for those more intimate Metaxu deliriums, but he is   considered a solitary mammal and consequently has only published one anthem to protophony for a small label of the American prairies.
