I create beautiful sounds in New Zealand. Music composition, production, songwriting, string arrangement, soundtracks, robots. 林外 新西兰音乐人 🌌

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

Sometimes change in life happens all at once. I found myself emotionally lost and, after a decade of creating instrumental music, accidentally writing songs. Today I'm finally sharing them with you in my new album, Sailing on the Light of a Passing Star🤍

@zoeleanor1 Beside either of those labels, you should find the down arrow of your dreams

@zoeleanor1 If you go somewhere Korean, look for 음정 or 키, then tell your friends to prepare for defeat

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

I often lean on metaphor, but I'm suddenly realising that these lyrics leave nowhere to hide. Doubt About You is the final song I'm sharing before the full album, Sailing on the Light of a Passing Star, later this month.

Thank you for listening 🤍

I spoke with the @indianweekender about my music, China, my Indian heritage, and my grandfather's extraordinary life story, where family and the future of a nation collide.

I never intended to expand beyond instrumental music and start writing songs. Perhaps that's why some songs on this album almost feel like a duet with the incredible string players, and the ambience.

You can hear the second song now, called Stay Still - https://t.co/iGeKaSRyvL

I just had a wonderful chat with Maggie Tweedie on @radionz about my unbelievable experience going viral on Chinese social media

We also discussed my time in Liuzhou, Obi-Wan Kenobi, my upcoming album, and learned a few things about myself along the way

@zoeleanor1 Thank you so much Zoe! It feels good to share it

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

After over a decade of instrumental music, I've finally found my voice. Today I released Gravity, the first song from my upcoming album, and the first ever featuring my voice and lyrics.

Thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoy it 🤍

I may have only released collaborations over the past few years, but I’ve never stopped working on music of my own.

It's a new direction, but I closed my eyes, pressed the button, and the first song, Gravity, will be with you in two weeks 🤍

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

Just across from downtown, at the top of the ancient stone stairs (or oddly ordinary office lift), you can see the city outskirts weaving between endless mountains, and the most scenic school sports field of all time.

Views from Ma'an Mountain, Liuzhou, China.

#Liuzhou #柳州

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

The most beautiful park I visited in China - Longtan Park in Liuzhou.

Each one of these karst mountains (or "slim" mountains as I could only call them) had a stone staircase leading to another completely surreal view, sometimes straight out of an eco sci-fi.

Easily my most unique collaboration, today Jeremy Redmore and I share with you Migrations, our full collection of songs.

It's a merging of our two different worlds, creating songs that capture moments of change between people and places.

Thank you 🤍

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

Easily the song that surprised me most from our collaboration, today Jeremy Redmore and I are sharing ‘Love Will Come Your Way’ featuring the beautiful vocals of Avya.

I hope you enjoy this unusual journey 🤍

@zoeleanor1 Thanks so much! Jeremy was amazing to work with, and threw me the most interesting creative challenges along the way

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

After four whole years since we first started working together, and over a decade of being inspired by him, I’m so proud to finally share my new song with Jeremy Redmore - Worlds Apart.

I hope you enjoy the music 🤍

1000 beautiful layers of pencil by Jia Luo for the cover of 'Worlds Apart', my first song with Jeremy Redmore, out next Wednesday the 13th.

“If you ever want to do a vocal collab.. 🙋‍♂️”

Many years after seeing Jeremy Redmore in Midnight Youth countless times growing up, from behind my fringe of course, I received this unbelievable invitation.

I start all of my collaborations as a fan, but this time had history.

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

Over the past few years I've been on an unlikely musical journey with one of my favourite songwriters, vocalists, and rockstar-inspirations-of-my-youth, Jeremy Redmore.

I can’t wait to share our song 'Worlds Apart' with you soon 🤍

[Levi Patel @LeviPatel]

@HushHushRecords @kexp Well deserved, congratulations!
