A Shifting Lightness I is the beginning of my exploration of Lightness and Memory.

When writing the music, I was living alone for 18 months near a small town in the North of New Zealand. Every morning I would go downstairs into my half-underground recording space, and from where I was writing I could only see through a single window above ground.

Spending so much time alone allowed me to take things slowly and to reflect on my past. It's strange what isolation can do to your thoughts, but it was rewarding to explore those aspects of myself through my music.

about

Levi Patel Auckland, New Zealand

Music composer and producer from New Zealand.

I love to combine delicate instrumental recordings with ethereal electronics to create beautiful music.

Besides my own music, I produce and engineer for other artists, co-write songs, and compose music and sound for film and television. I'm also building a robot.

Thank you for listening!
