I have tried to google it
Maybe I misheard On Ultimate Self Working Card Tricks [Contact Colours] – they describe a false shuffle I think they called it an ‘Island’ something shuffle It’s a basic over hand shuffle, where you do the first card as a single, then do small clumps of cards, singles in the middle of the deck, then back to small clumps – making sure the top card of the deck is a single to live back on top of the deck Any ideas of what this shuffle is called [?] Sounds like Island something Thanks |

Erdnase uses the term "blind shuffle" to refer to a shuffle that allows you to control some or all of the cards. Could that be what you heard? If so, I don't think it's a specific shuffle, but rather a class of shuffles.
It's still magic even if you know how it's done.

And here's this from the good folks at "Conjuring Credits":
The overhand red-black shuffle commonly attributed to Laurie Ireland was actually invented by Charles Jordan, who described it in Thirty Card Mysteries, 1919, p. 27. Some references state that Ireland published the shuffle in his manuscript New Card and Coin Manipulation 1935, 1935, but that is incorrect. Edward Marlo, in Estimation, 1962, p. 32, attributes the shuffle to Ireland, but notes that its use was to maintain a central card or cards in place during an overhand shuffle. Marlo also writes that Ted Annemann later applied Ireland's shuffle to maintain a red-black separation. (Marlo does not give print references for either the Ireland or Annemann discussions.) Although Jordan's and Ireland's aims were different, the mechanics were the same, and this is possibly what led to Ireland's name being attached to Jordan's red-black overhand shuffle. -- http://www.conjuringcredits.com/doku.php......_shuffle
