Diss-based artist turns festival nostalgia into a dance-infused daydream with his latest single
Robin Shaw, the dynamic songwriter and performer from Diss, England, invites listeners into a sunny, rhythm-soaked world with his original single “Shuffle Your Feet,” released on May 5, 2025. A bold step into dance-pop territory, the track is a breezy, uplifting ode to the magic of outdoor festivals and the simple joy of movement—crafted with longtime collaborator Chris Hall and recorded at Pirate Studios in Shepherds Bush.
Known for blending genre-hopping creativity with vivid storytelling, Shaw leans into a new sonic direction with this release, channeling summer warmth, communal energy, and a carefree vibe. Having explored hip-hop, rap, folk, and pop in past releases, “Shuffle Your Feet” represents a fresh, unburdened chapter. Its bouncy rhythm and vibrant production are matched by Shaw’s signature attention to lyrical imagery—think straw hats, flowery shirts, and dancing in golden-hour light.
Inspired not by specific artists but by the sensory experience of small festivals—“what we see, touch, hear, feel, taste—it all adds to the vibe”—Shaw sought to distill that emotion into music. The result is a single that feels as much like a memory as it does a celebration, transporting listeners to an imaginary field of friends, food stalls, and spontaneous dance circles. “I had to really get into character,” Shaw shares. “Someone who just wants to move and feel free.”
The artwork, created by Hayley Sayers, adds to the song’s playful and nostalgic aesthetic, while upcoming performances, including a slot at V-Dubbin Festival on June 7, signal a return to the stage after a hiatus. With past support from BBC Introducing, Amazing Radio, and airplay stretching from London to Finland, Shaw’s journey continues to gather momentum, powered by over 450,000 Spotify streams and a growing international audience.
“Shuffle Your Feet” isn’t just a summer track—it’s a reminder to let go, soak up the moment, and, yes, shuffle your way into the sunshine.
