Behind the Music
Sukh KnightI’m always astounded to learn of people that are willing to destroy nature and the planet out of greed - rarely thinking of the long term ramifications of their actions - which is why I was so drawn to the chapter ‘The Final Frontier.’ It was inspiring to read of the Brazilian scientists partnering with Greenpeace to save a reef off the coast of Brazil from being destroyed by oil companies.
I tried to visualize their story, as well as all the others featured in The Outlaw Ocean, when making my music. I wanted to create a soundtrack to life adrift out on the lawless sea and the kind of chaos that can strike at any moment out there.

He has previously released music with an array of different labels including New World Audio, True Tiger Recordings, Stripes Records, Nebula Music Group and Hench Recordings.
