“Memeshift is the personal project of ShareSD co-founder Morgan Sully. Pulling influences from Orbital, Plaid, The Secret Frequency Crew and even Nirvana, Morgan thrives on developing a diverse electronic repertoire in his often difficult to place music.

While his produced work reflects the softer, more melancholy melodies of his musical aspirations, his live and djed shows explore the darker, funkier trajectories of minimal techno.

From illegal outdoor parties in Bay Area forests to cafes, galleries, bars and nightclubs in San Diego and Mexico, Morgan has djed and performed original electronic music in venues throughout the Western United States.”

Well, according to my press release anyway. I’ve also played with such diverse artists as Jega (Planet Mu, Matador), Tom Burbank (Planet Mu), El Poeta (imputor?), dj Jon Baker (Brokenbeat, Frik n’ Frak), Louis Haiman (Transmat, fwdthought), Disrupter (disruptermusic), Miguel Vega (AccentFeed), and Marcos Fernandes (Accretions, Trummerflora). I’ve also produced music for a variety of events, local documentaries, and an independent feature film.

On Performing

While I occasionally enjoy DJing with records, these days find me not far from my laptop - it’s an essential part of my performing. A lot of my process revolves around manipulating and improvising with pre-recorded tracks from my  favorite artists, loops, rhythms and various other sounds I channel into my live sets. Other times, I have a more dj-oriented ’set’ of pre-selected tracks (both original and from others) which find their way in.

One of my favorite instruments is a microphone for really being able to channel the ambience of a room and audience into my set.  I consider a 4-channel mixer to be my first ‘instrument’.
