FØPA is the creative project of Darwin, Australia born Steven Lees an artist who thrives on blurring the lines between genres. His catalog reflects both club energy and meditative depth: the bass-heavy punch of “Purple Ghost Cat,” the house pulse of “Keep On Dancing” and “Crocodile House,” and the atmospheric resonance of “ÆTHERIA,” and Techno favourite “Stop.”Each release is crafted with intention, designed to move both body and mind, whether on the dancefloor or in deep listening spaces.

This project is the culmination of over 17 years in music and culture: from his beginnings as a radio host and founder of Shamzine Magazine amplifying Northern Territory artists, to producing large-scale festivals like the Nightcliff Seabreeze Festival and Mindil Beach Sunset Markets. His work with NT DAW’s further showcased his passion for building producer communities, while co-founding L.A.B. Music Management sharpened his skills in mentoring artists, managing tours, and securing Triple J airplay. FØPA emerges from this blend of production craft, community-building, and industry experience — a project that translates years of shaping music culture into a singular, forward-looking sound.

The Oxford Ambient Collective (OAC) is the solo musical alter-ego of David Smith, an artist who began his compositional journey in his early thirties using software such as Buzz, FL Studio and Reason. He has a  focus on a aesthetic of crafting immersive "ambient drones and ethereal soundscapes." Intentionally grounding his work in the history of the genre, Smith’s creative output reveals a clear artistic lineage, with albums like Berlin Vol. III acknowledging the "subtle German EM influences" and paying thematic homage to the pioneering Berlin School of electronic music. While deeply reverent to this historical lineage, Smith's methodology is aggressively contemporary, positioning him at the vanguard of mobile sound design by relying on a sophisticated suite of iOS applications to perform complex sonic morphing and generate his signature textures; his advanced workflow employs Soundscaper as an "experimental sound mini lab" for textural manipulation, with all audio professionally routed through the AUM mixer and hosting application. This innovative approach powered his self-proclaimed "proudest achievement"—a 90-minute live performance at Oxford's prestigious Ashmolean Museum, an opportunity secured through his affiliation with Oxford Brookes University as part of its 150th Anniversary celebrations. To solve the inherent challenge of engaging an audience with long-form ambient music, Smith transformed the event into an immersive audio-visual installation, pairing his soundscapes with curated visuals from sources like The Internet Archive to command "active listening." The project's visibility expanded significantly beyond this institutional context through a pivotal relationship with the independent Focussed Silence label, which was instrumental in securing national airplay on BBC 6 Music. This success highlights a versatile appeal, with OAC's work finding a home on highly experimental programs like A Duck in a Tree on Resonance FM—hosted by the influential group :zoviet * france:—as well as on sophisticated global platforms where his work was programmed alongside compositions by genre progenitors like Brian Eno and Vangelis. While OAC remains a solo endeavor at its core, Smith actively engages in digital collaboration with a network of sound artists like Encym via platforms such as SoundCloud, effectively transforming the solo project into a decentralized creative hub, thereby giving true meaning to the "Collective" in his moniker.
