Welcome to Shift, where Tom Allen takes you on a daily musical journey from the stalwarts of Classical music to the cutting edge of Contemporary tunes. Join us here on CBC music for a round-up of the stories of the day, some videos of music (or maybe just videos interesting to music fans) and a place to speak your voice.

The Hagfish is a truly disgusting fish. It has so many pores that slime oozes out of it. It oozes so much that even sharks don't dare bite into the slime fish for fear of suffocation. And yet, we've decided that this is the clothing of the future. The T-Rex scoffed, and the hagfish outlived it. The mammoth as well. Are you going to scoff as well, or will you wear the slime?
CBC Music is looking for the best new act in Canadian music through a contest we're calling Searchlight. Already we're down to the best 4 upcoming bands in the country, as voted on by you. Help us give the right prize to the right people! Final Four voting ends this Sunday, and today we'll be playing music from the Good Ol' Goats.
