----
Psylosophy: Before anything else, could you please introduce yourself?
Shift: Hi my name's Chris Hoy. I’m 26 from Cape Town, South Africa.
Psylosophy: Your sound is unique and you're seen as one of the best psytrance producers coming from South Africa and probably the rest of the world as well. What do you have to say about it? How does that make you feel?
Shift: Well, I’d be silly if I said that didn’t sound nice... Yeah, it makes me feel good and honored to be respected for doing what I love.
Psylosophy: What are your influences when it comes to producing?
Shift: All music influences me. I listen to the radio a lot these days and I come from a rock background. I’m constantly trying to expand my range of trance and non-trance production skills (making house and breaks also, now) so I can't really say there's any one major influence, but I really dig the music of Absolum, Marilyn Manson, Prodigy, Britney Spears and Thievery Corporation.
Psylosophy: What led you into producing Psychedelic music?
Shift: The age of love, tsuyoshi, vortex, LSD, and the Delta/X-Dream.
Psylosophy: If you could choose someone (dead or alive) to work with on a track, who would that person be?
Shift: Marilyn Manson.
Psylosophy: You´re the man behind Nexus Media. How did that project come up?
Shift: Well I needed an outlet for my music and something that I could control and create the vibe around to promote my choice of music (especially new artists - not just from south africa) to listeners around the globe. There’s not a lot of money in the CD but it helps us get gigs 
Psylosophy: Your second album is coming out on Crystal Matrix Records. Why Crystal?
Shift: They got a good release history and I feel they can offer me more exposure to more listeners. They came to me with a good offer and some nice gigs so I said "Why not?".
Psylosophy: Why the name Shift?
Shift: Well I guess it's got many good implications... Could mean a lot of things, but it's all about movement, being dynamic and shifting to new levels of dance and experience in the music.
