Perched high above rolling hills and a typically spectacular New Zealand coastline lies a hand-built studio in which composer, producer and songwriter Levi Patel hones his craft.
It’s easy to imagine how, from this place of quiet perspective, Patel’s gentle, ruminative compositions have been inspired to flow into the world and establish him as a truly unique creative force.
From a foundational expression of intimate and contemplative guitar and piano composition, Patel layers worlds of richly harmonic strings and delicately crafted textures for a remarkable range of works from film soundtracks to collaborations with soundscape artists, pop stars and robotic instruments.
Since 2013 and across two EPs and two albums, Patel’s solo works have amassed tens of millions of streams and listeners across the globe. In 2018, he travelled to George Lucas’ esteemed Skywalker Ranch to complete his soundtrack for Lucasfilm director Rayne Roberts’ debut short film It’s Snowing Outside.
The past five years have seen Patel expand the scope of his work to produce, co-write or feature on songs by the likes of Message To Bears, Alayna, Jeremy Redmore and Rhian Sheehan. While in 2020 he made full use of his software engineering education in exhibiting a robotic musical instrument at New York’s Museum of the Moving Image.
Now, the voice behind Patel's modest spectacles and quiet demeanour will be shared with the world through his upcoming album, beginning with Gravity.
