Riddim Wise by Shapeshifter
Recorded at the group's own home studio in Melbourne, the album features collaborations with Aotearoa's most prodigious and exciting vocalists; Dallas Tamaira aka Joe Dukie (Fat Freddy's Drop), Karoline Tamati aka Ladi6 (Verse 2/Sheelahroc) and Paora Apera aka P Digsss (Sunshine Sound System/Shapeshifter).
The album is a definite progression form 'Realtime', with an emphasis on funky dancefloor grooves, whilst maintaining strong musical elements.
P Digsss's track 'Been Missing' was released in NZ in october as the first single from the album, and pressed on the group's first 12" vinyl. The 'Been Missin' video has recieved extensive television airplay, and the track was the 2nd most played song on alternative radio for 2003.

Shapeshifter by name and by nature, this elemental, electronic soul outfit has morphed time and time again with seismic shifts in genre – from depth-charge bass music, elastic electronic textures and barrelling breakbeats to bedrocks of soul, jazz and rave that ground their experimentation.
