'"Australian Hip Hop has a strong new voice"
- Inpress

"Melbourne's hip hop consciousness assassin"
- Undergrowth

With a multi-instrumental, multi-genre, multi-cultural, crossover of styles Pataphysics has crowds vibin with just a mic and his MPC. When Jammin’ with his funk posse, the live warm organic textures mixed with the dirty drums and electronic sub frequencies take it to the next level.

An evolutionary poet & subversive theorist, with a hypnotic vocal flow, smooth tone, and insightful rhymes, in blended time signatures with lyrics in both the English and Sri Lankan language.
Pataphysics’ lyricism deals with issues from local/international politics, the streets, dreaming, love, hate to our existence. His Trumpet glistens in between the rhythm, with a tone reminiscent of a 50's jazz record and at other times and a futuristic envelope filtered mono synth.

Has written and produced music for many Artists including 360 & Pez, Speech Debelle (Ninja Tune), Lotek (UK), Braille (Lightheaded), Rosie Burgess. Pataphysics brings an ever changing feel to each track proficient on trumpet, bass, keys, sampler, guitar, drums, turntable, percussion, tabla, dolke, panpipes, melodica, spoons, didg, beatboxing, he tends to learn instruments quickly using them in compositions.
