It was quite apparent from a young age that Simon had a different music taste to his friends. He would have old Motown classics on his iPod rather than pop music. Simon’s uncle was a Motown DJ, As Simon grew older he started to experiment deeper into minimal deep tech & tech house, he developed a real passion for this & started to play under the alias squidge for this style of music. Despite Simon experimenting more underground he still kept an open mind for all aspects of house music ranging from nu-disco to mainstream vocal house which he decided to play under his real name Simon.
It was only at the age of 19 that he started to realise that he could implement his wide ranged music library onto the turn tables. Starting out as a warm up DJ in Nottingham, he played a mixture of disco, chill out and piano sets.
He was playing similar sets in Derby before finally making a breakthrough, playing at peak time at a great underground house/techno venue called Sunlounge (now named Ghost Bar).
Simon has now started to produce his own music to give his sets a unique feel.
Simon moved to dubai for a new challenge…
