Believe it or not, we swear these new artists keep getting younger and younger, but with them comes a new, fresh sound that breathes new life into seasoned listeners and artists alike. What this guy brings is a sound of the future. It’s genuine, heartbreaking and something that a lot of us need whether we’ll admit it to ourselves or not. So, do yourself a favor–keep reading.

Born John Tortorelli, the same year Pixar’s Cars was released (geez I’m getting old), noShift has long held music near and dear to himself and it really helped him get by through his upbringing. Not only has music helped him through hard times but he feels a certain connection to music’s ability to convey emotion unlike other artforms. This Future Garage producer has something to say and it’s clear as soon as you press play.

Through SYNC Records noShift hopes to expand not only his base of listeners but his catalog of ever expanding tracks as well. He’s been there, and he understands what it’s like to, at times, be down and out. So, when you’re feeling low and need a lift, look nowhere else but to noShift.
