SOULSHIFTMUSIC® • Label

"Providing a platform for the best global talent  we expand current trends and create new paths on a new musical perspective with a unique sound". -  The Squeeze (Label Owner)

Soul Shift Music started with label owner and artist Robert Simmons (The Squeeze).  In an effort to start his own record label, his early tracks  were released in digital format on Grab Recordings. Unable to afford vinyl pressings and having economical hardship gave Robert the idea of going completely digital. This opened up an abundance of opportunities and a move toward the future to get his music into the consumers hands as well as dj's. Shortly after, Robert seeked artist for his label. Soul Shift began to become a household name with key artists such as  Distant People, Mel Rosario, Duall II, Tom Sicks, Or'l, amongst others. Strong digital distribution has made it possible to find the label's releases in all major and independent stores. With Soul Shift's ongoing releases, new signings, and impressive roster the label continues to launch some of the best in house music.
