Portal

 

Portal is the project of multi-instrumentalist Scott Sinfield, occasionally featuring guest vocalists and other musicians.  Portal's releases have received acclaim from diverse sources including The Guardian, NME and DJ Magazine, and won early support from legendary DJ John Peel, for whom a BBC Radio 1 session was recorded in 2000.

The music of Portal has shifted in style over the years, from lo-fi guitar-based ambient pop, to sample-based electronics, to more recent material, released after a four-year hiatus, which saw Scott nod towards his early musical influences of classic 1980s' 4AD, Factory and Mute artists.

Scott co-founded Make Mine Music with Jon Attwood of Yellow6 in 2002.
