The Aston Shuffle is the name of Australian electronic music producer and DJ Vance Musgrove. They were initially a group until Mikah Freeman left in 2021, with Musgrove continuing on as a solo artist. In addition to DJ gigs and a recording career, the group hosted a weekly radio show on the ABC's Triple J on Friday nights called Friday Night Shuffle.[1][2]

Biography

[edit]

They rose to prominence with several remixes in 2006–2007 of Claude VonStroke's "The Whistler", Rocket Men's "Candy" and Chris Lake's "Carry Me Away", and released their debut single "For Everyone" in 2007 through the Ministry of Sound Australia's label Hussle Records, which was featured on the Ministry of Sound 2008 Annual.

Their music was regularly featured on Ministry compilations, with remixes of Pnau's "Baby", Terry Poison's "24 Hours" (featured on So You Think You Can Dance) and dance/alternative hip-hop smash hit "Dance wiv Me" from Dizzee Rascal and Calvin Harris. They also released their second single "Stomp Yo Shoes" that year working with Tommie Sunshine, and worked on their first compilation album for Ministry of Sound Australia, Mashed Four.

In 2009, the duo mixed the second disc of Ministry's Clubber's Guide to 2009, which also premiered their third single "Do You Want More". To close out a successful 2009, they were voted the number 3 DJs in Australia in the Sony inthemix50[3] and mixed disc 2 of The 2010 Annual for Ministry of Sound, which peaked at number 1 on the iTunes albums chart. They were voted the #1 DJs of inthemix50 in 2010, the same year they launched their Friday Night Shuffle radio show.

Their debut album Seventeen Past Midnight was released on 15 April 2011 and received a four-star review in Rolling Stone. Their track "Your Love" featured Eden Boucher of Lovers Electric on vocals, the first of two such collaborations. In 2012 a remix of their song "Won't Get Lost" by fellow Australian producer Tommy Trash was released as "Sunrise (Won't Get Lost)". It held the #1 spot on Beatport's chart for three consecutive weeks and was played by DJs such as David Guetta, Tiesto, Hardwell and Swedish House Mafia. On 2 February 2013, they supported Swedish House Mafia on their "One Last Tour" shows in Sydney and Melbourne. "Won't Get Lost" was also remixed by Rüfüs Du Sol and Flume.

On 28 March 2014, the duo released their second studio album, Photographs. It featured the gold-selling single "Tear It Down," which was co-written with Amanda Ghost and nominated for an APRA Award in the category of Best Dance Work. The album also featured vocals from Mayer Hawthorne, Joel Compass, Kaelyn Behr, Elizabeth Rose, Lila Gold, Alice Katz from Youngblood Hawke, and Will Heard.[4] In 2015, The Aston Shuffle Spotify Sessions, a live recording taken from one of the shows on their Photographs album tour, was released.

In 2016, they released the tracks "High with You", "Only 1" and "Make a Wrong Thing Right" on The Magician's Potion Records. The tracks were played by Pete Tong, Oliver Heldens and Martin Solveig. That year they also supported The Magician on a run of US and European tour dates.

In 2016 Grammy-Award winning R&B singer Maxwell asked The Aston Shuffle to remix his song "All the Ways Love Can Feel" from his album blackSUMMERS'night (2016). The remix was released that year by Columbia Records.

In 2017, they performed at Belgium's Tomorrowland and Hï Ibiza and released a number of singles, including two new tracks on Potion Records, "Pass You By" and "Alpha Love", and a collaboration with LO'99, "Birthman".

Also in 2017, they launched Only 100s, a monthly mix series that showcases their absolute favourite tracks of the month. The duo have also done events under the Only 100s name, with a 2017 tour of Australia featuring UK acts TCTS and Icarus and a 2018 event in New York, where Vance has been based since 2015.

From 2017–2018 they toured internationally, then played 10 Australian cities in May 2018 on their "ID Tour" showcasing some of their new and upcoming material.[5] In 2018 they were again invited to perform at Tomorrowland, alongside Pete Tong, Claptone, MK, and The Magician.

On 16 July 2021, Mikah Freeman announced his departure from the group, with The Aston Shuffle continuing on as a solo project.[6]
