In Sequence Series - Special Edition004 - Shane Moyce AKA Soulscentric

Shane started collecting music in primary school. Both parents were musicians so music was constantly playing at home. Record collecting started in 1985, R&B, Smooth Jazz, Disco & 12 inch Singles. In 1991 he landed a residency at a Night club in Downtown Jozi called Harlem Shuffle. The first taste of a big crowd moving to his every beat. Life took a different turn in the following years with Shane venturing into a trade as a mechanic. Work took on the main focus & being a Dj took a back seat. In early 2000’s the music bug bit in a Deep way, the 12 inch vinyl collecting resumed & in no time Shane was back in it. Purely through his unique taste in music he developed relationships with Dj’s at the record stores he frequented. These relationships lead to bookings for gigs around Jozi from Soweto, Kagiso, Voslorus, Mamelodi & Tembisa. A pub called Hippo’s Place in Tembisa proved to be the top venue he enjoyed playing at, Friday, Saturday & Monday nights.
