Edit history

Ava is a combination of artist, techie, performer, mathematician and musician. He started composing 17 years ago with text based computer sequencing and that interest grew until he had a degree in music composition under his belt! Moving to more secluded realms in the bush led to a different form of creativity; instrument making. After years in the bush he finally crafted the world's first chromatic bamboo flute, a flute with the lilting emotive quality of wood fused with the versatility of the silver flute. He also emerged with an old 52-stringed Cimbalom which produces a sweet resonance, clear and vibrant under Ava’s practiced fingers. During the era of electro ska band, Heart Tribe, he constructed his ridiculously elaborate setup that routed his flute, cimbalom, xio-synth and vocals through his chunky sound card & beaten up lappie full to the brim with effects. Ava is now infusing life into his electronica with this live setup. The resulting sound is both powerful and peaceful -
