DEFEND 2024 SHOWCASE

Bookings: mikeshifttunes@gmail.com


Absurdist, versatile, unique. Mississippi-native MIKESH!FT comes out of nowhere with a refreshing sound. Proud of his Black American heritage, he merges hard-hitting, robotic dubstep with the soulful sounds of Hip Hop, R&B, and Jazz. Heralded by Excision with his Bass Initiative in 2022, MIKESH!FT has honed his DJ skills at acclaimed Dubstep festivals Lost Lands and Bass Canyon.  

He takes on the role of a Cyborg, creating a soundscape that encapsulates cutting-edge cybernetic enhancements, and the nostalgic, cynical dystopia that surrounds it. In 2025, MIKESH!FT is set to release his debut album, full of passionate but energetic dance floor music.

Music is the eye to the soul
[MALADJUSTED] 👽🌎 ✝️
•John 8:23-24• NOTW

The world is so loud and harsh. 
These are the trials I must face 

The reason I write big, scary music about Death is because it scares me the most... hence why I picked up the name “Esphyxia” from Asphyxia (to be deprived of oxygen; suffocate)
I almost drowned and Asphyxiated in a pool as a kid, 
so living to see the blessings life gives after is why I make music... to give back. 
Without music… I suffocate
Until my last dying breath, I will share my love for the world and music 😷❤️

•’The story of Esphyxia is that he is someone who lives in a world that he is too familiar with.. but not a part of… making him maladjusted… unable to cope with the norms of society. He has set himself apart from the rest… in the hopes to free himself from the confines that everyone else shackles and slaves themselves to… wearing a gas mask as to not breathe in their poisonous gas… which permeates the very land. 
He is a nomad.. a lone wolf… in this desolate wasteland we call Earth. He does not partake as the world partakes. 
But yet… he has a kindled fire in him to help spread love in the world… despite the darkness and death 
He will stop at nothing to bring peace and balance to the non-pragmatic ether he lives in… forging himself to be someone who can inspire and overcome
He has faced many deaths… but he knows one who is greater than Death, itself ✝️,•

I am self-taught for the last 10 years since 2014
I’m losing my hearing.. so I’m sorry if my music doesn’t sound the best or harsh 😅

I also am a musician who played violin for 14 years in orchestra and plays piano, guitar, etc by ear 👀 
I’m also a lyricist, amongst other things
