A party-rap aficionado on par with Spank Rock and Diplo, new Ninja Tune-signing Shuttle was introduced to the electronic sounds of Baltimore club while growing up in DC, where he now runs all-night parties with his Basstown crew. His critically acclaimed debut “Tunnel” was named the number 1 song of 2009 by the New Yorker’s Sasha Frere Jones. His remix credits include Phoenix, Micachu, and The Death Set. Shuttle also plays drums and co-produces indie-scene darlings Passion Pit.
