Channelling loving presence via impeccable sound design while tending to draw spirited and big hearted dancers to the floor.

Phortah's creative essence is somewhat free. He relates with the living tree, soil, sky, ocean and animal more so than with genre labels.

As an avid, exploratory, improvisational contemporary and contact dancer, his sound is informed by spontaneous rebellion against conditioned movement. Normality and convention are messed with.

"I listen to (feel) my animal body from within the living web which flows beyond intellectual capture.

With cues and guidance from nature, I cultivate visionary and feeling faculties as a part of the process. My music and dance practices are a part of this nourishing work. There has been a role for me to share from this place and I am grateful for all of the invitations and opportunities which have come from those who have recognised Phortah's offering. 

Sound wise, I work with various tools to create sensuous, enveloping auras which are often punctuated by saucy grooves. This aural recipe can be nourishing for humans and landscapes. I'm drawn to delving into deeper work with both.

My work with sound is supported first and foremost by a practice of listening." 

Relating with the gumbayngnirr and bundjalung nations on the east coast of Australia.

Phortah has released music with Dirtwire's Swamptronic Records (USA), Heimlich Musik (Vienna), leveldva (Moscow), Earthly Measures and Serafin Audio Imprint (Berlin).

There are few musical projects
that can boast of being a meeting
place, a crossroad of stories and
influences, of creation and play.
World Wild Web and its name
in the form of a challenge to be
taken up with a smile on your face
is one of them. Led by the French
musician and producer Manuel Jesus,
this entity illustrates marvellously
a fragmented and hybrid artistic
state of mind, incorporating
synthetic and organic sounds,
navigating between oblique
club music, euphoric pop songs
and global psychedelia.

Epitaph Records is an independent music label founded in Los Angeles by Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz. Early releases from a variety of punk heavyweights spawned what became known as the 90s punk explosion. 

Along the way Epitaph proudly launched its sister label ANTI-, representing unique and distinguished acts. From the beginning Epitaph’s mission has been to serve the musicians on its diverse and creative roster - an artist-first model, radical twenty years ago, and much imitated today.
