Bio

Michael Sutherland is a musician, producer, and recording engineer with a Commercial Music Degree (with Honors) from Massey University NZ and a certificate from MAINZ both of which focused on songwriting, composition techniques, recording, and music production. He plays electric/acoustic guitar, bass, piano, and synthesizers and is a competent arranger, composer, singer-songwriter, and loop-pedal artist.

Michael has a wealth of experience mentoring, recording, and producing projects from various genres mostly in the Wellington Region. He has been involved in hundreds of records ranging from solo pop artists to rock bands and also engineering larger jazz & orchestral ensembles such as the NZSO.

Michael's wide skill sets have led him to assist on some incredible recent NZ projects such as engineering Jake Baxendale's Sanctuary which recently hit #1 on Bandcamp's Jazz charts & assisting in the studio on Shapeshifter's latest album Rituals.

Michael's deepest passion has been in his global projects such as developing Music for Float Tanks in 2019 for Dreampod LTD which was the first professionally recorded music for sensory deprivation and is now used in 70+ centres around the globe.

Michael's upcoming release is Music & the Mystical Experience a 6-hour project for Psilocybin Therapy created from years of research into music, neuroscience, and psychedelics but recorded in the context of a community ritual. With improvisations guided by custom tarot cards, projection visuals, field recordings, and pushing a world-class recording studio to its absolute limits with 28 musicians and artists involved. This project aligns with the intensity of a psilocybin experience and is filled with musical traits which support mystical-type experiences. Available to the public on August 1st, 2023 at 11.11 am NZT.

Michael is continuing to develop & compose music for Psilocybin Therapies based on the research pertaining to music and mystical-type experiences, collaborating with clinical trials to create music that heals communities, brings incredible artists together, and teaches us more about music's incredible role in these breakthrough therapies and consciousness in general.
