Shane.MOV

Apart from working in film as a director, Shane Crosland is the artist known

as Shane.MOV (previously known as Shamus). Originally a jazz/funk drummer

and instrumentalist from Maryland and Colorado, USA, he has been promoting,

playing at clubs, festivals, parties, and playing in live bands for just over a

decade.

Currently based in Byron Bay, Australia, he has been able to dive into the

bubbling underground electronic scene, and has created a multi-faced film

production/arts/music label, SONIK-INO, giving artists a voice and remaining

close to the idea of inclusion.

SONIK-INO collaborates closely with a number of brands and labels in Australia,

as well as far and wide to create content, art, and events that are approachable

for all walks of life, including as much rising talent as possible. They are also the

founders of an international event, Club Motif, allowing for extended sets to let artists express their full sound capabilities.

Shane.MOV has been able to release with Donald Pump (PAF Records)

and DJ WITCH, titled "Lullaby For Georges" and "Count Forwards To White". The

tracks have been grouped into the compilation LP, "Lost In Transience

(SOKI001)", SONIK-INO's first release, consisting of eight tracks produced by

artists in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales. He has recently

released his first EP titled ‘Habits (Like Glue)’ featuring remixes by Nachtbraker,

Minor Circuit, and Pootchy, which has also been released on SONIK-INO as

SOKI003. Shane has also recently released mixes on Bangkok Community

Radio, Deeprhythms curated by Echocentric Records, as well as, Hanoi Community Radio.

His style is ultimately guided by the idea of space, authenticity, and depth,

playfully blending an array of selections in his sets. No stranger to tension and

release, Shane.MOV remains in a position to fully explore sounds both old and

new, across the realms of house and techno with astral, euphoric, world, and

soul influences, rooted in the Chicago, Detroit and UK underground. With that,

he is able to create eccentric, emotive, and vibrant dance floors.
