The NEW DAWN has come!
I am excited to announce that my 2nd full length album as matek has been released.
An eclectic collage of electro, dub, hiphop, and punk, NEW DAWN features collaborations with Tanya from Junkyard Lipstick, and Vanessa Nova.
In the spirit of the season and to celebrate the emergence of the New Paradigm, I have decided to make the album available for FREE (with the option to pay for it if you want to).
All I ask is that you share it if you like it. Music is my passion and I do it for the love, and would be honored to share this gift with as many of you as possible. Please spread the word!
NEW DAWN is available from the following link:

Do you LOVE what you do?
If you don’t love what you do, it’s not worth it. If you are living someone else’s dream -> life will be mediocre at best // depressing at worst.
You have a dream. You have a vision. You have a purpose. And this is unique to you, you’re the best one for the job.
Whether you know what it is or not doesn’t matter at first.
Be open to the possibilities // be curious about life // choose to be happy // do things differently // fall in love with life // allow things to unfold -> this will reveal your vision to you.
Have no doubts. Overcome your resistance. Flow with it. Live your truth.
You’re not alone. The energy on the planet is shifting and it’s affecting all of us. Be receptive to the wonder of miracles and synchronicities. It will always work out.
You are here to change the world, and you deserve to THRIVE.
“The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.” – Steve Jobs
The REVOLUTION is here and now!
In case you haven’t noticed, we are in the midst of revolution. We’ve passed the point of no return. This revolution is unlike any revolution we have ever seen before, and is more widespread and unprecedented in its implications than any other revolution that has come before. This revolution is taking place first and foremost in our hearts and minds, and we are seeing its effects in all aspects of society.
The playing field is being leveled.
From this chaos, we will rise up and create a new world that works for all of us.
We live in a world with more than enough resources for all of us to thrive. It’s time for us to wake up, take our power back, and become the solutions that will shift us into the next phase of our evolution. We can have peace on earth if we choose it.
This is not a drill, the time is now.

“A revolution is coming – a revolution which will be peaceful if we are wise enough; compassionate if we care enough; successful if we are fortunate enough – but a revolution which is coming whether we will it or not. We can affect its character; we cannot alter its inevitability.” ~ John F. Kennedy
There’s a new dawn in sight…
So here we are, more than halfway through 2012. It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here. This has been the most transformational year of my life so far, and I’ve been spending most of my time taking all of my projects to the next level. The New Paradigm energy is coming in strongly, along with all of the intense changes that are going on around the world.
I’ve been traveling a lot this year. So far I’ve already made two trips to Toronto for advanced training with the Modern Mystery School, and am currently preparing for the next trip there next month. I made my first trip to Japan in May to do some work in Tokyo, along with lightworkers from all over the world. I’ve been to Johannesburg to talk about Life Activations on the radio, and am heading to Pretoria this week to teach at our first Healer’s Academy in the area.
I’ve been expanding Flame of Life Centre, converting it from a light centre into an energy spa, based on the models used in the Temples of ancient Egypt during their Golden Age. These Temples used to offer massage, energy work, and meditation in a sacred environment, in order to bring balance back into the lives of the members of their communities. I’ve been collaborating with Hayley Fullard from Oshun Body Spa to bring a variety of therapeutic massage techniques into the centre, in order to create a fully rejuvenating experience for our clients, to compliment the energy work, healing and empowerment sessions I offer there.
I’ve spent a lot of time in the studio recording new material and finishing up my second solo album, New Dawn. I’ve been collaborating with a couple of vocalists and producers, both locally and internationally, in order to combine our skills and reach a wider audience. I’ve also started writing ambient meditation music for my Evolution Alchemy project. I’ll reveal more about this project soon enough.
I’ve converted Raw Magick Online from a blog into an online magazine dedicated to New Paradigm Culture, and have been sourcing contributions from visionaries and pioneers from around the world. I’ve gotten a couple of international raw food authors on board, and am also working on launching the next phase of Raw Magick Radio, which will be an online platform for cutting-edge New Paradigm music.
Shift Cape Town is also growing into more of a collective and community-based project. We’re currently planning Food of the Gods: Part 2, our second annual raw chocolate party. The first one has been our most popular event to date, so we’ve been brainstorming behind the scenes to find ways to take it to the next level. This one is going to be even bigger and better than last year’s one, which is pretty exciting.
This has been a year of massive transformation for many people on the planet. It has been challenging at times, but it will all be worth it. We’re at the threshold of the next phase of our evolution. All we need to do is step forward, embrace the changes, and come up with constructive and sustainable solutions to the current world situation. We can do this by collaborating and co-operating, and building new communities. Gone are the days when we had to struggle to do this alone. We’re all in this together and this is the way forward. It’s time for the new tribes to unite.
Let’s harness this wave of energy and make it happen! The first rays of the new dawn are already on the horizon. It’s going to be a beautiful new galactic morning.
Much love to all of you.
11/11/11 and the New Paradigm
Happy 11/11/11 to all of you! Today is a very special day and also a very auspicious gateway of opportunity. We’re rapidly shifting into the New Paradigm, and today is one of the portals that we can step through to get there. It’s all about transformation and evolution. It’s a good time to start defining what we want our lives to look like, and in turn what the world will look like as a result of the inner shifts we’re making. If you’re in Cape Town, please join us this evening for a peace meditation: 11/11/11 Gateway to the New Paradigm at Flame of Life Centre.
As some of you may know, I’ve just returned from Toronto, Canada for an amazing and transformational 2 weeks of advanced spiritual training with the Modern Mystery School. One of the highlights of the trip was a presentation by Gudni Gudnason, the lineage holder for the Modern Mystery School and founder of the New Paradigm Council. He talked about New Paradigm culture and technology, and told us about aquaponic systems, geodesic domes, piezoelectrics, and other self sustainable technology that harnesses the power of nature as an energy source. Mind blowing stuff. The world is changing so quickly and this technology is available to us already, waiting for us to utilize it.
One of the most exciting things was hearing about the geodesic domes, containing their own self regulating ecosystems, harnessing the energy of nature and providing free food using aquaponic systems! These are completely self sustainable and off the grid, and can be constructed in 5 days, with a pricing structure starting at only $40,000. Check out these videos to get an idea of the potential:
Wishing you all a blessed weekend filled with magick and miracles!
Much love,
a SUPER SMOOTHIE to kickstart your day!
Evolution Alchemy is all about awakening you to your inner superhero. Or in other words, maximizing your potential so that your super powers can manifest.
That’s why I get so excited about raw and superfood nutrition, as they help to do just that. By consuming foods of the highest nutritional value, you get to maximize your nutritional intake with minimal effort. This frees up your energy to focus on other things, as it’s not all being used up by the digestive system.
People often ask me what would be a good way to start exploring the raw food / superfoods paradigm.
My answer is usually: Start making Super Smoothies!
It really can be that simple. By starting your day with one of these, you begin to reawaken to what really nourishes your body. This can initiate a process of self realization that can lead to a deeper understanding of your relationship with your body, and after some time you’ll begin to understand what your body really needs to thrive.
Here’s a recipe to get you started. This is one of my current favourites. It’s Spring time here in South Africa, and I’ve been enjoying this tropical superfood smoothie for breakfast.
Cacao Papaya Super Smoothie:
1 banana
½ papaya
a handful of organic dates
1 teaspoon cinnamon
a pinch of Himalayan crystal salt
a handful of cashews or almonds or 1 tablespoon tahini
1 tablespoon raw cacao powder (2 tablespoons if you want it extra chocolatey!)
500 ml water (I use fresh water that I collect from Newlands Spring)
optional extras:
1 tablespoon hemp powder
1 tablespoon baobab powder
1 tablespoon maca powder
1 tablespoon lucuma powder
1 tablespoon mesquite powder
Blend all of these ingredients together and ENJOY!
Blessings,
Bringing back the Magick!
What is Magick? And what does it mean to us?
For thousands of years, people have been aware of an energy that flows through the universe and known how to tap into it and harness it. But in more recent times, we’ve mostly lost touch with this energy.
Watch this video to find out what Magick is and how you can bring more of this energy into your life and into the world:
Namaste,
What is the Life Activation?
The Life Activation is one of the most powerful transformational tools available on the planet. This is a 3000 year old modality that has been preserved through the Mystery School tradition and is available to us today to help us through all the changes and shifts that are going on around us and within us.
Check out this video to hear about some of the benefits and find out why the Life Activation is so important to us in these times:
Peace,
Let the Evolution Begin.
Now is a time of mass awakening.
More and more people are asking questions like “Who am I?”, “What am I doing here?”, “Where did I come from?”, “Where am I going?”.
If you are one of these people, I’m here to tell you that you are not alone. You are loved and supported in your process.
I’m here to offer you my services and facilitate your awakening in any way that I can.
We’re all on this journey together, let’s see how it unfolds…
Blessings,
