I’m hitting you in your ears and your brain, son!
1 – NEW CLUSTER MAG MIX: Your Ears
Cluster Mag has just released a brand new mix from yours truly (“yours truly” is me, Shiftee, for those unfamiliar with the parlance of our times). The mix “Crossed Signals” is easily my most laid back and least frantic effort to date. Moreover, it’s all based around Hip Hop!
Grab the mix here: Cluster Mix Series 008: DJ Shiftee
“Shiftee has built us a mix that privileges deep, thoughtful immersion over dancefloor hedonism, teasing us with flashes of turntablism throughout the 52-minute journey.” – Cluster Mag

Rx & I will be posting a new Space Ace “Thank You” video every day for 10 days straight starting Sunday (Jan. 15). They are bizarre and ridiculous to say the least.
I just dropped a new routine for Dubspot. The video is the first part of a three part series, which you can find more information about HERE.
My official statement on the routine:
“This is a routine I put together for my recent appearance on the legendary Rinse FM (big shouts to DJ Wonder for having me on!). It’s meant to show my softer side. Yes, you may know me for my manly feats of strength and untapped primal aggression on delicatessen waiting lines. When you think Shiftee, you probably think of a brute force who opens jars, lifts heavy boxes, and attends the gym regularly (big shouts to my trainer Sergi for keeping me toned!). But there’s more to me. I take long walks on the beach. I gaze wistfully at setting suns and old people. I once watched a trailer for The Notebook and felt something deep inside (it was indigestion, but still). Please watch the following video, and get to know the real me. – Forever Yours, Shiftee”
