Tuning in to the signal — in words, in images, in sound. Author of The New God Flow: The Divine Signal in Hip-Hop, with more on the way.
Work that carries the signal forward.
The New God Flow
Michael's debut — a search for the divine signal running through hip-hop, drawn from sixteen years in the photo pit watching artists channel their art night after night. A book about where the music really comes from.
The Autobiography
From the North of England to the Cayman Islands to Vancouver — the full story, in Michael's own words. Coming in a future season.
Future Works
More books are on the way. Join the list and you'll be the first to know when each one arrives.

Born in the North of England, raised in the Cayman Islands, and now living in Vancouver, BC.
For the past 16+ years Michael has been in the photo pit shooting for SCENE IN THE DARK, his concert photography project — watching artists channel their art night after night.
He is the founder of Shadow Caster Studios, an AI-driven creative holding company building tools across operations, photography, and music software, all in service of empowering independent artists. His background spans eleven years as a video game developer and work in AV and operations management.
He works with the Three Links charity at the Odd Fellows building, and in 2017 founded the Identity Lens Project, a human rights platform for activists and anyone who wants to share their story of identity.
His focus now is on music production — helping artists channel their music from the source, as he has done himself. Michael gives all credit to God for everything he has done and everything he will do, Inshallah.
